Skydive Taft Review

Service, safety, and friendliness are at it s finest over at Taft Skydiving. A great environment to experience this insane stunt. Fair price for it and even more fair price when you go with a group of up to 4 people. Special thanks to the whole staff there especially Beevo and Noah.

I've been a licensed skydiver for 5 years now, and Skydive Taft has become my favorite place to jump over the last couple years. New owners took over a couple years ago and have brought an amazing vibe to the place. Whether you're looking for a once-in-a-lifetime tandem jump, a place to get licensed, or a home for fun jumping, I can't recommend Taft enough. <3

My friend Stevo had never been and while we were in California we decided it was a perfect time for him to take the plunge. I have been skydiving many times before and they were great. There was such a great attitude about everything and while i have seen people decide not to jump they made the atmosphere relaxed and fun.

Taft skydiving sponsored our engagement - it was perfect. They were good at keeping everything secret and helped us plan every detail. We felt safe the whole time and we highly recommend doing your engagement through Taft!!!!!
Thanks Taft!!!

Probably the best skydiving experience to be had. Great instructors and staff!

Best lil drop zone around! The staff is so knowledgable and friendly. Lanie is always there to answer any questions. Brendon and Beevo are great tandem instructors. I would trust them with my life. They just got a new plane, and it is clean and beautiful. The landing area is easy to spot and very big. The whole atmosphere is welcoming, and I have made life long friends there. When the plane shuts down you can count on a BBQ or a nice dip in the pool. Love, Love, Love this DZ

Very knowledgeable instructors. My wife went for her birthday and felt safe the entire time. It was an awesome experience.

Awesome folks.. a little warm In the summer.. super fun

My husband and I had such an amazing experience sky diving.

Best place to skydive in socal. Best owners and staff ever.

AHHH!!! AMAZING!! I LOVE IT!! I swear to you I was in a stressful/mad mood that day but once I got there I said to myself "the hell with it Michelle,lets do this!" I jumped out the plane and started tearing up from joy.. It was beautiful..no fear no stress.. Everything I was stressing over didnt matter and it was all about the letting go part and the view.. going back for sure

It's always a good time at Taft skydive. Good people!

Totally worth the drive and every penny! Staff was super friendly and helped with any questions or concerns. The jump was amazing! Will definitely be back soon!

I went Skydiving on 7-13-19 and it's was fun and I hope to do it again soon

My daughter and I had such an amazing time. Staff was wonderful and our jump was so easy. Everyone was so welcoming and helped us with any questions we had. I'm definitely going back!

My son and I just did our third jump out of Taft skydiving. Each experience totally AWESOME .
The entire staff is amazing and extremely helpful. Look forward to jumping there for years to come.

I had such a great experience jumping with Skydive Taft. Dan was an awesome tandem instructor, all the staff members were so friendly, I felt safe, there was a great energy all around, and the jump was indescribable. Highly recommend!

Had a blast. Everyone there is super friendly and make it so much fun. Will most def go again.

I would have given a five star review, because the experience itself was amazing. However when I went up, I left my credit card, phone and ID in a tub provided for this sort of thing. This tub is behind the counter and for this sort of thing. You cannot go up with things in your pocket. The following morning my credit card had fraudulent charges on it. Someone charged my card for over $1000 dollars, my bank caught it. The only way this could have happened is if someone at Taft Skydive stole my information. The Card was brand new, and Taft Skydive was only the second place it had been used. When I called Taft Skydive to let them know that this had happened and that I suspected my information had been stolen and used at their establishment I was told "Well that is a theory". Taft skydive is the only place my card was left unattended and out of my sight. The fact that this is how they run their company is very appalling and I will not be back. If you do choose to to skydive here do not leave anything unattended as your information will probably be stolen while you are up in the air.

Skydive Taft has a long history of successful and reliable operation along with the reputation of helping to groom some of the best skydivers in the world.

Amazing place to hangout in the sky. Look me up when skydiving here. I would live to add a bit of extra fun

It was wonderful.professional .I would jump again.smile

Brought my guy for his birthday and it was amazing! The staff was friendly and inviting and extremely knowledgeable. Brendon took my guy tandem and showed him a great time in free fall and swirly swirls. We will definitely be back!

Where's Voodoo? Made your business FAMOUS! Hope you paid that guy a good severance "package".

Very friendly and helpful staff! Great experience overall!

A little out of the way, but worth it. Great crew members!

There is always a great group of fun skydivers at all levels of skills. Start with a Tandom, but come back to get your license so you can be a regular skydiver too.

Best place ever omg i love it so much, great staff, welcoming space, nice and relaxing pool.

Bought a tandem jump for my girlfriend as a birthday present. Even as a non jumper I have to say I was impressed with the professionalism and detail to safety while still maintaining a fun exciting environment. I felt very comfortable putting the person I love in their capable hands.

Professional drop zone with friendly staff. Great for tandems over San Andreas fault :)
Strongly recommend!

Fun Dropzone. Fast king air. Good landing areas. Had a blast

Amazing!!! My son asked to go Skydiving for his 19th birthday and of course I said YES! The staff, instructors and pilots were the excellent! Welcoming, encouraging, supportive, and professional! Travis and Brendan took great care of us. Their explanation and orientation was assuring and provided the confidence needed throughout the experience!

We appreciate the excellent service and the treasured memories! Thank you Skydive Taft!

They have rings that u can play with and Starbucks in the vending machine.

Honestly, best place to go for your first jump, great staff, and instructors. Overall, the experience was amazing and would recommend it to anyone.

Such an amazing experience! Expect to be there 2-4 hours since each group of divers takes some time. The paperwork and video is fast, waiting on the people ahead of you is what is time consuming. Aside from that, the staff was very friendly! Can t wait to go back soon.

We went Skydiving 7-13-19 such an awesome experience. The next day our daughter and daughter in law jumped. Thank you to all the amazing ppl at Taft Skydive for such a wonderful experience.

Wonderful instructor (Alex) wonderful friendly staff girls are friendly, positive , outgoing and make you feel safe and that you won't regret your time or money it was an amazing thrill won't hesitate to go back didn't get enough

The people are wonderful,today was my third jump.start aff next weekend,one thing I can say to anyone that wants to jump,from anywhere,don't be in a hurry.
Relax,take the time to get to know the people y'all are strapped to and the others that are there as well.the more relaxed you are the better the experience.

Amazing experience. My instructor helped me calm down after being so scared. Definitely checked off the bucket list .

Great place super fun great atmosphere cool ppl definitely recommend

Had a great time, lots of nice people. Not the nicest view, but that's ok

Incredible DZ run by super friendly Lelo and Claudia. Watch out for the prop blast off the Beechcraft. It's a powerful plane!

Great time, lots of fun, Brendon was awesome, can't wait to go again!

Great place for first timers and vets as well. Very friendly staff

I love this place! Everybody that works here is awesome and they're pros at what they do. I highly recommend this place to anybody that wants to do a tandem jump or become a license jumper. Thank you all for the great times!

Surprised my boyfriend for his birthday. Our instructors were the best! Thanks guys! We'll be doing it again soon!!

So awesome definitely going back. Instructor Alex is awesome!!

TERRIBLE SERIVE! I booked a Groupon and made a reservation with them. She told me I could fly at 4pm so I drove 2 hours to surprise my brother. We got there and she told me there were a few groups before us. We waited around and sat there for 4 hours!!! No one came to us and said hey we don t have any time for you guys to jump. This random lady approached us and said are you guys jumping? This is the last jump! We then went to the front desk and she said she would see what she can do because the pilot shut the plane off for no reason and that takes up time, I think only one of you guys can jump on this last flight. She then comes to tell us that he is showering and can t jump. My sister was over there and that guy said he didn t want to jump. She lied to us! Everything was unprofessional and there was no communication. Anyone could have said let s reschedule we are over booked and you can t jump today. I would have been happy with that but they did not do that. We drove 2 hours and then sat there for 4 hours! All she offered me was a refund and a hat. I will never go here again!!

Such an amazing experience!!! Could not have asked for a better location to do my first sky dive at. Staff is so accommodating and kind
Highly recommend this spot

The best experience ever!!!!!!!!!! Instructor was amazing, I just have no words to describe the amazing feeling!!!

We wait. Long time 2:45. We had an appointment and I was going children. Boys....

Best place if you ever want to skydive. They make you feel right at home.! Couldnt of asked for a better experience!

They are so friendly n help explaining how to have the best time. Another check off my bucket list. So much fun.

Perfect place. You can't get this feel anywhere!!! Only here!!

Best experience ever. All the staff are amazing. The instructors are awesome, and so much fun. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting the best experience.

Amazing experience that you have to at least try once! Instructors are amazing and make you feel less nervous
