Skydive 35 is a great drop zone. Simple as that. They are centrally located just south of Forth Worth (less than 45 minutes from downtown), and SW of Dallas on 35.

Along with a ton of positives, they fly a great, well maintained, fast GRAND CARAVAN.

Info for FIRST TIMERS (or those looking to be first timers):

This is the place. Skydive 35 is staffed with extremely knowledgeable and friendly people. Along with being knowledgeable about skydiving in general, everyone that will be a part of your jump is extremely skilled through experience, and has your experience and safety as their first priority.
The staff is extremely safety conscious. The promote FUN and safety in the air, as well as on the ground. My wife and I did our first jump with this group, and enjoyed the experience so much that we are now avid skydivers, and can’t imagine life without it. This is a direct reflection of Skydive 35.

FOR THE EXPERICENED ONES…

Ill just lay the fact out…

GRAND CARAVAN
Fire Pit, beer fridge…
Flat screen TV’s for great debriefs
Good load organization
Few obstacles
Huge landing area
Pea Pit for accuracy
PAVED runway for smooth takeoff (and no day after rain delays…)
On site rigging services by a Master Rigger
Food
Super clean bunkhouse
Clean INDOOR restrooms
Clean Showers
Great overall VIBE.

I made my first jump (a tandem) yesterday at Skydive 35 and the entire experience was fantastic from start to finish. My original plan was to jump on Saturday but high winds prevented it from happening, and obviously in the interest of safety I had to reschedule for the next day. The whole staff there was so friendly and accommodating, I actually consider myself fortunate to have been able to visit their facility on two days instead of just one! Safety, efficiency and professionalism are evident in the operation of the staff. The atmosphere was friendly and fun. I felt completely comfortable with Jeff, he answered any and all questions I had and made me feel at ease through the entire experience. This is an admirable company with genuine people and I would recommend Skydive 35 to anyone, especially anyone making their first jump.

I visited Skydive 35W for the *first* time last weekend and I had a blast! I have been to my fair share of DZs over the years, and Skydive 35W is one of the best. Everyone was very friendly, especially the staff. Jeff is a real nice guy and very helpful. It's got everything you are looking for in a DZ: clean showers, nice bunk house, covered carpeted packing area, kitchen, bonfire, really nice classroom with projector and white board, rigging services, easy to find landing area, pea pit, etc... The best part: the Grand Caravan! 14K and a wide door- I love it! If you looking for great skydiving, whether you are a licensed skydiver or looking for your first jump, check out Skydive 35W!

The staff is exceptionally helpful and friendly, from the manifest staff all the way to sport jumpers on the scene! I completed 3 tandems from the DZO and it was an amazing experience! So much so, I went back for AFF. The coaches and AFF instructors are very experienced and safety conscious, all the while making sure that you are having an awesome time. This dropzone has plenty to offer for jumpers of all skill levels!
