After having been out of the sport for quite some time, I have felt totally welcomed at Bowling Green. Joe has been a true patient professional that has helped me get back in the swing of things. The rest of the staff, has gone out of their way to get me back to speed and beyond. For instance, I was pulled into the hanger three times to go over different packing techniques.

Thanks for everything!!!!!!!

Beach 99 plane, it's like a rocket. I have been treated like I belong there, even with my low jump numbers 150. There is lots of out's. Sometimes when I land off (usually my fault) it's no big deal I pick a large field and land, I always get picked up.The packers/rigger are top notch. I had one cutaway a while back, I had to leave soon after, and those guys went out looking for my gear. WOW yes they found my main ! I have been to 3 other DZ's but this is the best and I am proud to say YES my home DZ is St. Louis Skydive KLH B-30921

This place is freaking awesome...I live 4 hours away and have done all my AFF jumps there and now am at 60 jumps in 6 months because of them. The Beech 99 is awesome and so everyone should come to this dz because the altitude, professionalism, talent, ammenities, location, landing area and overrall home-town feel is awesome!!!

I made the trip to Bowling Green for their Beech Boogie and was certainly glad I did! This was my first time visiting the DZ in it's new location and all I can say is that the new DZ is fantastic. There were tons of jumpers who couldn't be more friendly. The Goons recruited me for a few jumps with them and I was even able to get a jump in out of the Pitts bi-plane that they had (what a blast)! I didn't stick around for the party but I heard it was still going when the sun came up the next day.

All in all I had a great time and I will certainly be back!!!

My brother and i made our first jumps at this DZ. We were so impressed that the one AFF jumped turned into several years of Home DZ jumping. The people make this place. I've heard so many stories of superstars jumping, doing thier own thing and not giving the time of day to those that need assistance in learning the ropes. Those types don't jump this DZ. everyone is hyped on seeing every jumper from first time to "Pro" have a great, safe time.

I've been outta sport for a couple years now nursing an injury but can't wait to get back in the air with Chris, Scott and the rest of the crew at Quantum Leap.

Don't miss a chance to hang with this crowd for at least a day. You'll be hooked.

I hear about DZ's that have a somewhat 'military' feel to them - and I hear about DZ's that make people feel like they are treated as dollar signs rather than people...

Fortunately, my home DZ is Quantum Leap, which means that I don't have to deal with any of that stuff...

after only jumping a few times, I'm treated like a friend when I walk in... I've received mostly one-on-one training in my AFF progression, and every question I've ever asked has been answered with the authority and expertise of a world-class staff...

how often can you go to a DZ, recieve one-on-one instruction, and then go hop out of a Twin Otter at 13.5?

at Quantum Leap, I can do it every weekend...

and of course this area of Missouri is absolutely BEAUTIFUL - trees, hills, bluffs, it's just breath-taking...
Their website has some pics of the view... it's certainly worth looking at - www.skydiveql.com

Sweet!

I first jumped at Q.L. as an experienced jumper 12/15/02. The staff and all jumpers there were very friendly. It is the only D.Z. in the Midwest with a Twin Otter(wooooooohoooooo). I would recommend this facility to anyone who wants to have a great time in the sport of Skydiving. Thank you

5 of 15 people found the following review helpful: First Aff Jump Rated by: jumpinjackflash on 2003-08-20 (user profile) (user reviews) Review of: Skydive Quantum Leap / The St. Louis Skydiving Center   Pros: Extremely Professional Staff - Friendly Gang of People Cons: Where is the beer at?

After being out of for over eight years it was extremely enjoyable to come out and experience the sport in the way it was meant to be. After a very poorly executed 2nd freefall (static line progression), that nearly resulted in burning in over eight years ago, I was very nervous about coming back. The guys at the DZ made me comfortable and assured me this would be a different jump. Everything went real well, and I'll call it home from here on out. Major applause to Jim and Scott and the rest of the gang. THanks for the good time (yes I'll bring a case of beer next time!, jeez...) :-)

I just made my first jump (tandem of course) and the staff at QL could not have been nicer. Very professional!!! They made me feel like i was the most important person there.
