Superb morning!!

  Such a powerful experience! - Just... WOW...I am going to struggle to put this into words! Thank you so much for the most incredible experience, a truly inspiring and absolutely amazing thing to have done.... read more Myself and my partner Jack (JALLY!) did our skydive for the British Heart Foundation on Saturday 8th October. I have a million words but also none at the same time - a skydive cannot be compared to anything in this world (as cliche as that sounds - you will NEVER achieve the same feeling doing anything else!). Our instructors, Ben and Debbie - were the nicest most loveliest passionate warm people - whose energy was infectious - despite myself being terrified, they built my confidence and put our minds at ease straight away. With a bit of banter (JALLY!!) trusting someone to take you safely to the ground can be a daunting prospect but they really did make us feel invincible!
The sheer freedom of falling and floating was unforgettable - and I really again have to repeat that our instructors as well as our camera men (Dan was my camera man) were the best people we could have in doing our first skydive with. You guys provide an experience that by far surpasses any other. We even saw a hot air balloon taking off! I may be biased but Shropshire offers some serious views too, you won't get those views ANY other way, not even out of a plane window!
I am writing this the next day as it has taken this long to come down from the excitement of it, but can say this. I am not a good flyer but can honestly say it may have changed that. Life is too short, do the thing, do the skydive and do it with these guys. I feel a new sense of self, and feel so lucky to have been able to experience it all with your amazing team. Thank you again!!!

  I just wanted to say what an amazing experience I had today, it was my first skydive after putting it off for over 20 years but wow it has me... read more hooked I’m already planning my next one! I’d like to say a massive shout out to Richard for being truly amazing, his humour and compassion was outstanding, he put me completely at ease and made my skydive truly amazing!
To anyone else thinking about doing a skydive my advice is Do IT! Don’t put it off, the staff & experience at Tilstock is fantastic!

  DO IT, you won't regret it! - What an amazing experience! I did this as part of a charity jump, and it was an fantastic day. Rich, my instructor, did an great job to make me... read more feel at ease, and to try to distract me from my worry as we ascended. The jump was truly beyond words. The day could not have been better, and the views were phenomenal. I felt so at ease taking it all in. The instructors that I met were great, and clearly love what they do, and make you love it too!

  Absolutely Awesome - Amazing experience with truly awesome yet professional staff.

It's clear that safety is paramount, yet the atmosphere given by staff was calm and fun.
A fantastic morning. Highly recommend Skydive Tilstock Freefall Club to anyone who wants to experience the thrill of skydiving!!

  I'm sure I seen E.T up there 🙂 - All of it 🙂 The whole team were great, from Reception, Cafe staff, instructors and Buzz (liteyear) sorry had to say that 🙂 were all very friendly, professional, ensured H&S... read more was adhered to at all times and not forgetting their great sense of humour, I did a tandem Sky Dive with Ben who was great, down to earth and had great come backs to my questions, after being new to this experience i was fearless which I thought I would be a bag of nerves but possibly all the staff made me feel at ease without knowing it.
This sky dive was to raise funds for a chosen charity: Claire House Children's Hospice and they do say be free for a whole afternoon so it did not bother me I was waiting my turn for 4 hours, this is nothing compared to how long parents wait holding their child's hand..... so be patient!
Again thank you for an awesome experience and I will be back again to raise funds and take to the skies

  Sky dive was fantastic - place itself not so great - The dive itself and instructor was fantastic, however I did the jump for charity and as a result ended up waiting 4.5 hours to do it. Thankfully I wasn’t terrified... read more and the wait didn’t make me back out, for someone who was anxious it could have been a different story. Was a shame for those to came to support me who had a very long wait to watch me for 5 minutes as a dot in the sky.
It was felt that if you were a “fully” paying customer then you were prioritised. I was the last of my “group” to jump. Had i known it would be so long I wouldn’t have arrived at the time told to do so.
We ordered something to eat given we were waiting so long and a plate of chips took 40mins to arrive. Overall poor experience but the jump itself was brilliant and instructor was lovely.

  Unforgettable experience! - Wow. What an experience.

Everyone was very supportive and friendly. This was my first time doing a skydive (or anything this adventurous) but because of my instructor Mark,... read more I was surprisingly quite relaxed and more excited than scared. The weather was good but we had to jump into the cloud and at some point, I felt ice-cold water drops hitting my face (I was wearing goggles only) next thing I knew my instructor put his hands in front of my face to protect it.

The skydive was amazing, but the people made it even more special.
Forever grateful and thank you to all the team at Tilstock for their beautiful warm energy.

  It was simply amazing ! From start to finish it was faultless. We arrived and found checking in very easy. We had plenty of detail and information about next steps... read more and how things will happen during the day. We had our very detailed safety briefing, a little break before we met our instructor (Hans) and also met our Cameraflyer (Wilko). We kitted up and were ready to board our plane after some quick safety things (practising exit, freefall and landing positions!)

My sister also jumped and she had Deb for her instructor and Pete for her cameraflyer, all 4 individuals were lovely, calming and very funny instantly creating a fun atmosphere .

I am petrified of heights and got very scared during the climb in the plane, my instructor Hans, tried his best to keep me calm. We had a lovely chat during our ascent and he pointed out some of the beautiful things we could see out of the window. On a clear day it's pretty impressive ! Closer to our 10,000ft jump height he reassured me once more by telling me his previous experience and doing final checks. Once the door opened it was all systems go! I have NEVER felt anything like it and Hans and Wilko were amazing, once the parachute was open, the gliding was amazing and the landing was very smooth!

  What an amazing day!! - What an amazing day!
I had a fantastic time. From start to finish this has been an easy and thrilling experience. I phoned just over a week before the jump... read more to book photos/video and the staff were helpful and more than accommodating to my many questions.
Arriving on the day, the set up was brilliant. Everything was explained very clearly. From the safety briefing to meeting the instructor and being kitted up – everything was clear. I was made to feel at ease and felt my instructor, Deb absolutely made my experience as amazing as it was.
My brother jumped the same time as I, and his instructor Hans was also brilliant. Despite being nervous in the plane, the atmosphere at jump time was spot on.
Just a huge thank you to Deb for making the experience so amazing and truly unforgettable. Thank you to Hans for making my brothers experience much the same!
I also can’t stress how brilliant the video and photos were, thank you Pete! Did a cracking job! Absolutely worth the money for the beautiful pictures/shots. I must mention Wilko too for my brothers photo/video- brilliant. Thank you all.

  Great Staff and great experience - Been on the bucket list for a long time. I’ve done a lot of thrill seeking activities and extreme sports and this one tops the lot. There’s nothing quite like... read more throwing yourself out of a plane at 10,000 feet.

Hanz, my tandem instructor, was brilliant. Everything was explained very clearly and he made sure that I got the most out of my time in the sky. He also made sure I got some great shots for photos and my video. From the safety briefing, to being strapped up, to then getting on the plane and then jumping out. He made me feel at ease which is probably a good thing when you’re plummeting to the ground together. Thank you Hanz!

Also, a big thank you to Debb. My camera flyer. The video and photos are excellent. Really worth the money. Debb was very encouraging the whole time and I could see how hard she worked to get the best shots possible.

  DO IT! - Literally jumped half an hour ago with Jim, he was amazing. The experience is most definitely life altering. Had no feeling’s of anxiety beforehand as everyone there made me feel... read more safe and comfortable. Thank you all at Tilstock and a massive thanks to Jim for getting us back to earth in one piece.

Thanks once again to all at the tilstock skydive venue from the welcoming to the departure!

Hopefully see you again all soon

  Loved loved loved the whole experience from start to finish.

Everybody at Tilstock works very hard to make sure you are looked after from the minute you book until... read more after the skydive. I didn’t have to worry about a thing.
Booking was straight forward, the team were always available for queries and if your jump has to be rescheduled for whatever reason, they are on it. Don’t be upset if it does get rescheduled, they’re looking after you and it’s worth the wait!
The airfield was easy to find from the directions given and loads of parking, there’s a good area outside for your family and friends to watch from and a cafe. (All COVID safe)

On the day, it felt like you were a part of the centre and again all down the people that worked there. Everybody from the reception to the cafe to the instructors were happy and helpful. I was updated and knew exactly what was happening when.

Then it’s time to go! I loved all of it, the plane ride was great, the floating down and looking out at the beautiful view but the best bit was the freefall without a doubt. Amazing and calm whilst shooting through our beautiful world

You can have a go at directing the canopy whilst floating down. I held the straps but already decided before I wanted to have a day to relinquish control and just enjoy. The choice is very much yours. I liked being a floaty marshmallow

The landing is also nothing to worry about. It’s happens a lot quicker than you think and with a bit of a bump. All very controlled and then you’re down. Again, you’re looked after right till you get back to the centre where you’re helped out of your harness.

Thank you Tilstock, I’m hooked. Thank you especially to Darrell, my tandem instructor. Already saving for the AFF
