They were very up front with the information. Made it a fun and enjoyable experience for my wife and I! My wife didn't enjoy it as much as I did, but we both are happy we did the dive. I would recommend this place if you are new or experienced.

We had an amazing time skydiving here ! They went out of their way to help us celebrate our friends 40th birthday. My instructor was Kerry and he was really patient and helpful. He made sure I had an amazing flight - and I am still smiling ! Highly recommend. They have a great picnic location next to the drop zone to chill out before your jump. We invited our friends and family too to come and watch.

This was my first time jumping out of an airplane... Needless to say, my anxiety was through the roof!! The instructors and staff were so lighthearted and informative which helped calm my nerves 10-fold. When it came time to launch my body out of the plane toward the earth, my anxiety turned into excitement, knowing I was safely secured to an experienced skydiver. The entire fall, I felt we had complete control and was enthralled with the beauty below us.
I'm glad that we decided to get the full video of our dive to watch it in a different perspective and to be able to recollect what just happened!

I definitely plan on returning, thanks for the amazing experience Skydive Twin Cities!!

Awesome! Great people and great experience. I only planned on doing this once in my life but will definitely be doing this again soon. Also, shout out to Bert my tandem Sky Diving instructor! He is the BEST. Highly recommend requesting him as tandem partner. If do and you end up going on a Saturday, make sure you wear a cat t-shirt for the caturday tandem Sky Dive extravaganza!

Well organized. The process clearly defined STC knows what they were doing. This was may second time jumping, first with STC. It was so smooth that I never was nervous. That's good, right?

Don't you dare be hesitant! Everyone has skydiving on their bucket list. Quit being a baby and get it done at Skydive Twin Cities! The staff is great and the instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. They are well trained and safety is their priority (remember, when they take you, they want to survive too). There is nothing to fear so be the brave one, grab some friends, and prepare to have the thrill of a lifetime!

I had a great experience but I had done a tandem a few years back so I knew what to expect. My instructor didn't talk much and one member of our group had them on a previous stick and because there was not much communication, she was a nervous wreck and decided a round trip airplane ride would be better. It was busy I am glad we were told in advance to expect 4 hours on the DZ. Already planning to return for the AFF

Awesome experience. I turned 60 a couple weeks ago and wanted to take care of this "bucket list" item that I've wanted to experience for many years. Got to jump with my son and it was everything I'd hoped for and more. Now I'm thinking I need to work my way to solo status!! Staff was great - tandem partner (Brad? -sorry!) and photographer (Ausie Bert) were outstanding - they took away all the worries of leaving an airplane at 13,000 feet. - Paul

I visited STC on 6/17/19 and could not have had a better experience. The staff was extremely friendly and very helpful. My tandem instructor Robby did a particularly good job of calming me down (I was *very* nervous) and making sure I enjoyed the ride. It was a BLAST. I'll definitely be back!!

Why would anyone jump out of a perfectly good airplane? TO EXPERIENCE ALL THAT LIFE HAS TO OFFER! Two of my children (age 18, 20) and I did our first tandem jump yesterday....it was a beautiful day and it was an awesome experience. I for one will jump again! You heart will sweat and your heart will soar! Everyone was great! The pictures and video were worth every penny. I recommend them so you can wow your friends!

Just jumped 3 hours ago. I have flown airplanes and instructed student pilots for years and never thought about jumping out of one. Had a friend that was having her 50th birthday and invited me to come along. I am not a thrill seeker by any means but this is something I have always thought in the back of my mind that I would try someday. Well that someday was today and I must say it was one of the coolest things I have ever done in my life. I would argue that it might be better than the day I first soloed. The weather wasn't the best and so we got pushed back a few hours for our jump but anyone that flies airplanes knows that you have to work around that. Great staff, great facilities, and my instructor Blane aka. X-box was super cool and fun to jump with. If you get the chance you should really go! I would certainly come back to do this again

Skydive Twin Cities is top notch! I did both my Tandem and my Cat A jump with them. Both times they made it easy, safe and fun. I never felt pressured and always felt prepared. Tyler did my training and was calm and relaxed and made me feel at ease, plus he is a great teacher! I thought for sure I would forget everything he taught me but lo and behold, I didn't!! I did my Cat A with Conner and Robby and I can't give them enough praise! Those two are AMAZING! They made my first solo jump the best experience I could have ever had. Kudos to them and entire team!

It was an awesome experience just wish I could ve had a different instructor. He was the one with an Australian accent and unfortunately he ruined the mood of my first jump. He seemed to have an attitude and was annoyed, idk what about. But I have anxiety and was super nervous, he oddly didn t seem to take that well. I still jumped! And already planned my second jumped elsewhere, hopefully it ll be better.

Had a great experience here. Skydiving is much easier than most people believe! I made a reservation about a month in advance, and it only took about 30 minutes to get in the plane and jump from the time we arrived. I would definitely go again, but maybe next time solo! Thanks Skydive Twin Cities!

While my friend Jeremy (who jumped 2600+ times) inspired me to take the plunge instructor made it very easy for me. Great place to experience your first jump. I for sure coming back for more jumps in the future. Thank you Skydive Twin Cities for unforgettable experience. Awesome!

My sons and I had a great time. Sam was my jump partner and she did a great job. Very accommodating and talked me through the process so there were no unwanted surprises. This was a 60th birthday present and it was one of the best I have ever had thanks to your staff.

This place has a really fun & amazing staff that is more of a family than coworkers! I liked talking with them & they had great humor about skydiving & making sure you are having a good time. I would suggest making sure that the person you are jumping with loosens the harness around your legs before landing so that it s easier to put your legs out. I couldn't lift my legs high enough because my harness was too tight and ended up spraining my foot & getting bad bruising from the harness, but its what I signed up for!!! Looking forward to doing it again, now i know how to prepare myself next time to not get injured.

Had the best time on my first tandem skydive for my birthday on Saturday! All of the staff was fun and friendly, especially my instructor XBOX who was hilarious and helped my nerves. I brought 6 friends and everyone had a blast! We all got video and pictures which turned out great and I have been sharing my link with friends, family and co-workers in hopes to get more people to Skydive Twin Cities! Thanks for helping me cross skydiving off my bucket list :)

Booked as a gift for our dad. The staff was friendly and the place was great for viewing the jumpers land. I would request certain individuals to jump with though. We watched a guy have several hard butt landings with his tandem jumps and that is who my dad got partnered with. They landed very hard on their butts and now he has a bruised tailbone and difficulty sitting and walking. (All the other jumpers had smooth landings and/or just walked right in).

I had the most wonderful first time Skydiving experience thanks especially to Robby my Tandem instructor. He was very thorough in explaining what to expect and made me feel comfortable and relaxed. Even the moment of the actual jump out of the plane (the part I thought I would be scared) was an awesome experience. I am definitely looking forward to doing it again. (Tyler did a great job video taping too). Tip: wear something to hold your hair down!

Was awesome to see my friend skydive there! If you have any sort of medical condition, however, they require a doctors referral and won't let you ride if you don't have one or if you say anything other than "no" to any medical conditions while filling out forms. Also, if you're watching, bring sunglasses even if it looks cloudy just in case. There are also friendly dogs there as well. Overall, it was a great place!

We had an absolutely amazing time here. The staff were very friendly and made the first jump an experience we'll never forget. For skydiving around the twin cities, this is the place you want to go! Just about 45 minutes outside of Minneapolis.

My experience was amazing. It was my first skydive ever. My husband bought it for me for my 60th Birthday. He said he would wait to see how it went with me before trying it himself! (chicken). The staff there were so nice. Breezy was my tandem instructor. She was awesome. I never even felt nervous - even when we got to the door of the plane and all I could see was earth below me. She was calm and she explained what was going to happen every step of the way. Our photographer (sorry I don't remember her name) was awesome too. She told me exactly what she would be doing so that nothing was a surprise. It was so beautiful and peaceful once our shoot opened up - although I have to say I really enjoyed the free fall. Breezy did spins and turns which were awesome too. And we had a smooth landing even though it was a little windy. I would do this again in a heartbeat (once I save up the money). It was such an awesome experience. Thank you so much for a great morning.

What a fantastic experience! Extremely safe and secure harnesses. Employees and our tandem instructors advised what to do all along the way. Trust yourself - take a chance - and skydive with Skydive Twin Cities! If you're anything like me, you'll want to do it again. It's exhilirating!

I received this Tandem Skydiving video package for Christmas and at 71 it was the best gift I ever received. It was my first time and the staff and Conner, my best friend for 20 minutes during the flight, made it a perfect day. Thank you.

These guys are outstanding!

These guys are outstanding!

Service, professionalism, attitude, safety--all of it. I came out sort of on a lark today to do my first tandem jump and had a terrific experience.

I highly recommend Rob, my instructor, who was positive, professional, and really made the experience terriric, and Mike the videographer made almost 200 shots and a great video. I know others are involved too (the pilot, Amy at the orientation space, etc.), and made the whole jump well worth it.

Highly recommended. Thanks!
