I chose Skydive the Farm to do my AFF over 2 closer DZs because of it's amazing reputation. The friendly, professional staff was very welcoming to a new skydiver. I'll continue to drive the 3 hours from my house to this DZ until work takes me elsewhere. Thanks to everyone at the Farm!

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I did my aff at skydive the farm, and I am very happy I chose to do it with them. Every one was very friendly and professional, and made me feel comfortable from the beginning. Shout out to Hans the dzo, and to my instructors Jack, Jesse, Micky and Andy for being amazing, answering all my questions and helping me achieve my A license. Safety is number 1, and the facilities are top notch. In short, I highly recommend checking out STF.

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I NEVER thought that I would skydive. After getting to Sky Dive the Farm to watch some friends do it, I felt the situation out and thought "why not?" Everyone was very friendly and willing to answer questions. My tandem instructor, Miki, was awesome! He used his humor and knowledge to get me to do it. I am terrified of heights and airplanes, but somehow it just felt good.

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

This dropzone does not even need my review, it's reputation has been well established. But I thought I would drop a few lines anyway to maybe polish up the shiny picture.

I came to the dropzone on my level 5 AFF, I was moving a lot with my job and just didn't have the time to finish off the damn thing. My instructor was Jack Hammer, really nice guy, laid back, meticulous, just what I needed with my frisky personality. He walked me through level 6 and level 7 with no problems, jumps went well. I have 22 jumps now.

I really liked this dropzone, everybody is friendly, if you ask something, they would find time to explain it to you. Folks there are very safety oriented, and I feel confident jumping there.

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

My husband and I went to Skydive the Farm for our first tandem jump. We felt right at home, everyone was friendly and helpful and there was no pretentiousness from any of the staff or other skydivers.It was an amazing experience for both of us and we plan to jump again with Skydive the Farm again in 2010. Special thanks to our instructors Kevin and Ashley who made us feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire jump. Special thanks also to Jack and Dave for the great video and photos! I can't think of a better place to tandem or learn to skydive than here

Rated by: kimyinpink on 2009-08-14 (user profile) (user reviews) Review of: Skydive The Farm   Pros: Everything - The Staff, Their Experience, Professionalism, Facilities... I just can't say enough wonderful things! Cons: Not a single thing.

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I had always wanted to go skydiving but no one close to me had ever shared my enthusiasm. Therefore, when my friend came down to visit, I jumped on her adventuresome personality and made us an appointment to make our first tandem jump together.

However, I did not take the task of choosing a skydiving facility lightly. We were putting our lives in these peoples' hands for goodness sakes. But thanks to the positive reviews here at dropzone.com I chose STF (even though it is 3 hours away) and there has been no looking back.

Chuck and Miki took exceptionally good care of us our first jump. We felt completely safe and secure with them. Not to mention they are a riot to be around.

Since then I have traveled back to STF every week to continue skydiving. After 3 tandems I felt confident enough to begin my AFF training and I'm happy to say I made my first "solo" jump 2 days ago. My training was top notch and when it was time to hit the sky I felt sure that I was thoroughly prepared to make a successful jump. Again, mad props to Andy, a kick butt ground instructor, Miki, my left hand man, Jesse, my right hand man (who was able to calm my nerves and help me really enjoy the ride), and Chuck my videographer.

I never imagined when I did my first tandem that I would feel such a love for this sport! I am so grateful to have a wonderful place like STF to help me gain confidence and skills as I progress as a skydiver.

If you are hunting for an amazing DZ, look no further. The DZO, Hans, and his staff are the best! Thanks you guys! Can't wait to see you all again soon!

3 of 18 people found the following review helpful: very professional, outgoing, and friendly! Rated by: danielleR on 2009-08-06 (user profile) (user reviews) Review of: Skydive The Farm   Pros: EVERYTHING. Cons: zero

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I jumped with Kevin, and Jack Hammer did my video... I was realllly nervous because it was my first jump but everyone there made me feel EXTREMELY safe and they were so comfortable with what they were doing that it made me feel perfectly fine. I wasn't even nervous in the plane because Kevin was so reassuring. They were very professional, but at the same time made me laugh and have a great time the whole day. The jump was INCREDIBLE and pulling my own chute and steering was so much fun. I would HIGHLY recommend STF to any first time divers (as well as experiences jumpers) and I myself will definitely be returning.

Thanks y'all for EVERYTHING! especially Kevin and Jack!!

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I went to STF on a Sunday morning. Got there a lil after 8. Immediately the DZO welcomed me to the drop zone.(I didn't know it was the DZO) I got a good orientation and it was off to dirt dive an 8 way. The otter was fast and the people were nice. $5 pack jobs to boot and I was feeling fine...! I usually buy a patch to add to my collection; well they GAVE me one...

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I have made five trips down to The Farm and have eleven jumps there. We drive three hours down there from Tennessee because the place is awesome. They have two huge flat landing areas. The high performance landing area contains two swoop ponds and the student area is wide and long. There are several places to camp and watch people swoop the pond. They have loads going all day until sunset, so it's usually easy to catch a load on the Otter all the way to 14,000' AGL. Hans and his staff are very friendly and welcoming which had much to do with my return trips there. The staff is also very knowledgable, experienced and willing to teach and grow their sport. I started off with a tandem, then completed my AFF there and now I'm jumping solo while working towards my A license with the help of Ashley, Jesse, and Andy. If you decide to jump at Farm you won't be disappointed!
