I was just driving to Rochester, on the scenic route, and noticed a parachute painted on the side of a building and turned round, popped my head in and enquired about skydiving as i had had my rig in the car after jumping in Canada. I was made to feel very welcome and after some fun with my BPA membership got 3 good jumps in one evening. All the locals were very accomodating and i felt at ease very quicky esp as i was told to give the pilot the finger on exit otherwise he gets offended ! The Dropzone is small but its in a great location and there are great views under canopy etc.

Many thanks guys hope to see you again soon.

I took my cousins here for their first tandems, and they raved all weekend about how friendly the staff was, and how they totally enjoyed everything from the people, to the training, to the atmosphere. I experienced the same good vibe...co-owner Mike Donlon went out of his way to make sure I knew everything about landing areas, outs, landmarks, etc. I also liked the emphasis they placed on wingloadings and jumps on current canopy....they do their best to run a safe dropzone, and it shows.

Beautiful scenery, huge landing area, the most comfortable Cessna I have EVER jumped, great food at the on-site restaurant, and the overall friendliness of everyone on the DZ make this a fun place to take the plunge. Thanks, guys....I will definitely be back.

Mohawk Valley is a fun and exciting place to learn how to skydive. I started jumping there 3 years ago I still go back every week. They have a very experienced staff who are constantly reminding students to be safe and making sure everyone is safety aware.

I've Experienced several gorgeous sunset jumps the landscape consisting of hills, valleys and The Mohawk River make it a very pleasurable experience. Fall folliage is a bonus also.

Its obvious upon arrival the staff welcomes new and experienced jumpers with unsurpassed hospitality.
