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!

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!!

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!

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I had been wanting to go skydiving my entire life, so when my buddy asked me to go for his 21st birthday I finally had the motivation to do it. I jumped tandem with instructor chuck. He really set me at ease with the whole jumping out of an airplane thing, and was very professional when it came to jumping instructions but was also very friendly and easy going. all the other staff was this way too. It was nice to feel as welcome on my first jump as veteran skydivers are. the environment at the farm is one I have never encountered before or after. It an amazing place. There was a large group of us that jumped so I had some time to waste waiting on everyone. I asked so many questions about skydiving and certification, I'm surprised they didn't tell me to shut up. but that's how the farm is. everyone was very helpful and since my first jump I have been saving to do the a license package jump that only the farm offers. I start the third weekend of July and cant wait to get in the air. I recommend the farm to anyone who wants a friendly and professional environment to skydive.

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I went to STF for my second tandem jump along with a group of friends who were all first timers. We all had a great experience. I went back the following day to start my AFF program, I graduated last week and have nothing negative to say about the experience. The staff I have met are all top notch, friendly and knowledgeable.

Ashley and Jesse are both awesome. Jesse shot my video and county Ashley was one of my instructors. Really cool people but dead serious about safety which is extremely valued to me. I did my first AFF and I am going again for my second this Saturday. I will continue to dive the farm!

Professionalism   Vibe   Aircraft   Facilities   Services   Location

I was amazed from my first AFF jump to now how laid back and casual the staff and regular jumpers are. If you're looking for a more lax and calm approach to skydiving as opposed to knocking out as many jumps as possible Skydive the Farm is definitely the place for you. The instructors are extremely knowledgeable and everyone is more than eager to help you. You feel like a part of the family early on as opposed to a walking dollar sign to the staff. Other than the lack of aircraft that can make time between jumps a bit of a lag, Skydive the Farm is the place to jump and is certainly a place I plan on jumping now and down the road.
