Letters from happy people who have
shared the skies with us above West Point!
Big thanks to you guys
at West Point for making my first jump an addicting one! I can't get it out of
my head! Here is a shot that Ryan took of Dave and I.. I edited it a little bit.
Thanks again you all are the best! I will def. be back for certification ASAP.
Just wanted to say
thanks for a great time. A group of 8 of us jumped tandem for the first time on
Saturday and it was amazing.
We all had a blast
skydiving! The jump instructors were all fantastic (I jumped with Camden, he was
great) and the jump itself was unforgettable. Several people signed up to come
back in the coming months and at least two described it as "life changing."
(including our most apprehensive participant) Lots of interest from the rest of
our classmates as well for possible future trips. Definitely the highlight of my
summer. Thanks for a great experience!

Hi Sherry! I
just wanted to drop you all a quick line and thank you and the entire staff for
giving us such a great time on Saturday.
It was a terrific experience, and something that Ashley, Gail and myself will
never forget. I’ve got to say that I was extremely impressed by Camden and
Ahmed. They are both very sharp guys- and very good at what they do.
Camden did a great job showing me the ropes, it was very cool that he was able
to relate some of the maneuvers like the landing pattern to my experiences as a
student pilot. And Ahmed did a wonderful job on the video and pics- definitely a
first class job! Ashley and I both plan to see you all again, I think
we’re gonna try out the AFF deal next time. (probably not till it warms back up
in the spring though!). Again, hats off to you and the entire team, we’ll
definitely point people in your direction!

Sherry, just wanted to send a quick THANK YOU!! for helping to make yesterday
such a great day for me. I don't know how often you get these kinds of emails,
but figured it's always good karma to thank people that are good to you. There
were alot of people in there yesterday, so not sure if you remember me. I do
have a couple questions about my next jump, though. which would be my second.
first, does the fee include the equipment? and second, how long should i
anticipate to be there that day? and third, is there any other "classroom"
instruction? Jim and Terry did an awesome job, i thought, with preparing me and
the other students. my jump instructors, kristy and cameron, were wonderful and
kept me calm and confident. Dave got some great shots. And thank god for Jim
getting me back to the dz in one piece (i will totally nail my next landing!) It
was just a great day. Thanks again...

Hi Sherry (and all of
West Point),
I just wanted to thank you and the West Point team for making my first
AFF jump really amazing and memorable.
My instructors Camden and Jason (and even my videographer Adriano) were
extremely helpful in making sure I was comfortable and knew what to do when
it was time to make the jump in any possible circumstance. Despite weather
conditions precluding my jump on the day I took the course, the skydive
itself and the friendly West Point team made my first skydiving experience a
great one. I appreciated the focus on safety and willingness of staff
to discuss and show beginners, such as myself, information not necessarily
on the course (such as how to pack a parachute). Now that a few days
have passed and I've time to process the skydive, I can honestly say that I
learned a lot from West Point and want to do more jumps in the future!
If you could pass the above feedback on to my instructors and to anyone else
who helped, that would be great. Thanks again and have a great week.

Good morning,
My wife and I completed our first tandem jumps yesterday afternoon and
we wanted to send a thank you to everyone at
West Point Skydiving Adventures for making this such a wonderful
experience. Our instructors (Henrik and Larry), videographers (Ahmed
and Corey) and your entire staff were amazing! We loved our first jump,
and are hopeful that we will get the chance to skydive at West Point
again in the future.

Skydiving was the biggest rush of my life. My instructor Larry did an
awesome job of keeping me calm and safe. I felt very comfortable with the
jump due to the laid back environment of the staff and my instructor
Larry. I would have already talked to more people about taking the leap of
faith to get the ultimate rush. I appreciate the safety and experience your
company exhibited. The camera man
Adriano did an awesome
job as well! It was very cool to see how the chutes were packed while
waiting.
The experience definitely gave me more respect for skydiving. I was told I
was brave. But in retrospec, I was prepared by my instructor. It wasn't
about being brave more so than just coming alive and enjoying the moment
each and every day.
I truly hope more people get to experience that rush, that thrill I was
given. What a privilege. No longer am I afraid of heights or planes.
Thank you again,
Chris

Sherry,
You and your stellar team made today a success for our church outing.
The heat and weather tried to knock you guys off your game but lost to your
perseverance and experience. I've received positive feedback from my
crew—all very good in regards to your safety focus and professionalism.
Already talk about next year's outing . . .
Thanks to you and yours for going the extra mile for us to compensate for
issues you didn't create.
I will highly recommend your outfit and will make sure facebook nation knows
how I/we feel about the level of service you provided.

Jim, just a few words to express my thanks for
my wife’s wonderful experience Sunday 4/18/2010. When we arrived at 9:00
AM the young lady worked with my wife with all the paper work and put Pat at
ease. She paired her with
Henrik for her training and as a jump partner. Pat was a little
nervous but Henrik was patient and by time for her jump she was totally relaxed.
It was a fantastic experience for her and the whole family who were gathered to
celebrate Pat’s 60th birthday.
The video was awesome and contains great memories. You have a great group
of people there and I would highly recommend your group anyone who would
consider Skydiving.

April 2010
Just wanted to say THANK YOU!! I can not even
express how amazing our experience was. You guys are the BEST!!
Also really wanted to tell Henrik sorry that my hoody was flying in his face :)
Thought we had that thing tucked in. I only noticed in the photos. Next time I
will most definitely not wear anything with the potential to flap around. I will
also beg to to do the spirals :)
Thank you Henrik!! You were the best!!!! I felt so comfortable (despite my
semi-terrified expression ;) Could not have asked for a better instructor!!!
My husband and I wish you all at
West Point Skydiving all the VERY best and hopefully we will see you all
very soon!!!
All our best!!

Hi,
I would like to thank everyone for the great experience. My Daughter April
jumped for the first time on 2/20/10 and LOVED IT. Everyone was so nice and
helpful. Her jump instructor was Great, (I think his name was Jon), the video
was a special feature also. Everyone there from the staff to the other jumpers
all made you feel welcome, excited you were jumping and had great energy. I was
just an observer and loved every minute of it. I would like to give a special
thanks, initially April was not going to have the video, but at the last minute
she changed her mind and you were able to have her videoed. I know you will be
seeing April in the next few weeks. I think she is hooked and she loves your
place! Also a special thanks to Sherry for making everything so special. She
went out of her way to make sure the girls had a good time and make it an event
of a lifetime.
I think we have already warn out the video, go thing we made copies.
Note-after a few years of not adding to
the testimonials page we started doing this again, hence the large gap in time
from 2010 to 2007. In other words, we were just as great in 2008 and 2009, we
just haven't been adding the nice notes we got from our customers!
October 2007
Dear staff at
West Point,
I'm just writing to thank you for the amazing tandem last Saturday Oct. 20. My
friend ad I loved it and are really looking forward to get back there!
Thanks Jason, Matt, Dave and (of course) Pam! You made it all really cool to
skydive!
September 2007
I would just like to say that September 29,2007
was the best day of my life.. My husband has been skydiving there for a while
and I decided to do a tandem jump for my bday.
Matt was my instructor and he was absolutely
wonderful. I also had an excellent photographer (i hate that I don't remember
his name.. He was a very built..gentleman..very funny and extremely kind)
I just wanted to say that your staff was excellent
and my experience was amazing. I thank you all so very much for taking your
time with me and making my birthday the most memorable one so far.
Thank you and I look forward to another jump soon
I just wanted to thank everyone for the most awesome experience of my life on
Saturday! It truly was amazing! Everyone that came to jump with me
also had the best experience ever! Of course, we still can't stop
talking about it, showing pictures, showing the video, all of it! Of
course now all of our friends want to go, so I'm sure you haven't seen the
last of us! Everyone there was great. I want to say a special
thank you to Dave Owens, who was with me for my tandem jump. He mad me
feel very comfortable and helped to calm me down during the plane ride, which
was also a first for me. Everyone out there was great!
Thank you for the best birthday ever!
July 2007
Thank you all for a wonderful experience last Saturday! My
daughter and I did our first AFF jump and her best friend did a tandem. Everyone
at your facility was extremely friendly, helpful, and patient. It was an
unforgettable day for us all and we hope to return sometime in the future for a
second jump. We will recommend your company to anyone brave enough to adventure
skydiving! A special thanks to Ted, Matt, Justin, Josh, and John (I hope I got
names correct!)... you're the best!
I just wanted to send you guys an email saying thanks. I came
out on sat with 6 of my friends to jump for my 30th birthday. I must say I had
never been more nervous about doing something in all my 30 years. kudos to all
of you there for turning that into one of the most exhilarating things I have
ever done. I got the privilege to jump with john and he made me so comfortable.
both he and kris were making me laugh the whole ride up and I hate airplanes! I
want to send a huge thanks from the group, we havent stopped talking of the
experience the whole week and we are anxious to come again, but this time we
will stick around and wait for that beer light to come on! just know I will
never recommend anyone else but wpsa. you have a crazy yet wonderful staff and I
hope this gets to them so they know how appreciated they are, to me and the rest
of us first timers. the only downfall was I looked like a penis in that hat
while john looked cool as can be. thanks again and I wanna send a special thanks
to john for taking such good care of me. my friends and family were happy to be
coming to a birthday party that night and not a wake. john you rock, and so does
the entire staff. thanks and we will be seeing you again soon!
June 2007
I would like to thank Jason Baldridge (my new friend for life)
and the rest of the folks at WPSA for the way they made me feel for my first
jump on 22 June 2007. Being a person who is frightened of heights Jason made me
feel relaxed and comfortable. The jump is something I will remember for the rest
of my life. The only thing that felt better then free falling was watching my
kids being born. I would also like to thank Rick for the video, it was awesome.
You folks made me feel like I belonged from the minute I walked in to your
hanger to the time I departed with a feeling that I hope never goes away. Your
kindness and professionalism really shows how much you care and love you sport.
Every time I watch my video it’s like jumping again and I can’t stop telling
everyone about the feeling I had. Once again thanks for introducing me to a
world that is special in more ways then I can express. I look forward to jumping
with WPSA again soon. Thanks
To Everyone At WestPoint,
I wanted to take a minute to express my gratitude for what you guys gave us on
Saturday. You made all of our first jumps a memorable experience that
we will all never forget. Thank you all again and I will be seeing
you all again the next time I get the chance!
May 2007
Hi there!
I just wanted to write and let you know what a great experience it was to do
my first jump at West Point! The staff and instructors were super
friendly and helpful. Never at any point did I feel unsafe.
The video & still shots service was remarkable, and I can't wait to get
the email link so that I can share with friends and family!
Thanks West Point for making my first jump an unforgettable one! I'll be
back!
October 2006
My sister in law came out about two weeks ago for our first tandem skydive and
we had a blast. I just wanted to let you know that you guys have
unleashed a monster in us, especially me because I can't wait to get back out
there and jump again. Your staff was great and the experience was a huge
thrill.
I didn't know what to expect but the jump lived up to and exceeded every
expectation that I had. I have to give 99% of the credit to my
instructor / tandem partner Ted. HE IS AWESOME!!! He made
the jump so exciting and unbelievable all while being wonderful about safety
and making sure everything went fine. I can honestly say I have never
felt safer in that type of environment in my life! I just can't speak
highly enough about him.
My videographer John was terrific as well. He caught every emotion
during the plane ride up, the freefall, the landing and after wards. It
was breathtaking!! I re-live that afternoon every time I watch it.
And yes, I have watched it numerous times!!! I will cherish this
DVD for quite a while - that is until I get back out there and have another
one made!!
I look forward to making another tandem jump and then I want to tackle an AFF
jump. One question - is Ted an instructor for AFF or only for
tandem? When I do the AFF jump, I will need Ted to do it with me!!
I noticed he isn't on your permanent staff page, so I hope he is going to be
in West Point for a while. I trust him! His love for this sport
and his confidence was very evident when we jumped together and I would love
to jump again with him. If everyone had that much passion
about what they do for a living, then life would be great!!
Please let Ted and John know how much I enjoyed the jump and I can't wait to
get back out there and jump again!!
September 2006
Well, I am
writing because I went skydiving with you guys today...I was a little bit shy
/ spastic / terrified, and left without really getting a chance to say thank
you to my instructor and video man. :( I was real shaky once I hit
the ground and wasn't quiet sure how I felt about the whole experience....but
I just wanted to say that once I got home, took a shower, relaxed, and watched
the AWESOME video that Oscar had concocted for me...I have decided that I had
an F'in blast / fantastic time!!!!!
I just really
wanted to make sure that Todd Potter and Oscar knew that I really appreciated
their professionalism, caring natures, and their ability to work with me and
make me feel as comfortable as possible!!!! My experience would not have
been the same without them. I hope to see them in the spring when I come
back for my second jump! Again, I felt horrible that I didn't really get
a chance to sincerely thank them, so If you could please pass my message on to
them it would be greatly appreciated!!!! I am not sure if they are part of the
permanent WestPoint staff because I didn't see them on the staff webpage, but
I would really like it if they knew how much I appreciated their kindness and
patience with me today!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE
EXCELLENT / FANTASTIC / INTENSE TIME!!!!
June 2006
Jim,
Thanks so much for your help...........also i meant to tell you before i
left........without a doubt your drop zone was the BEST I have ever jumped at.
Everyone was friendly and more then willing to help.......students were looked
after like i have never seen!!!!!
Drop zones back home could take a leaf out of your book that's for sure!!!
I'll be back in the near future to jump again!
Thanks Again
April 2006
I made it!!!!
The jump was fantastic. I am sorry everyone could not be
there. For those who made it possible, I thank you from the
bottom of my heart. It was the best going-away gift I could
have been given.
If I can figure-out how to send you a portion of the video, you
will see it. Until I do, know that it was everything I hoped it
could have been.
If any of you have a chance to visit Jim and his crew at West
Point Skydiving, do it soon. They give a great experience.
Jim, please tell David and Laurel thank you again for a great
jump!!!
God Bless everyone,
Dave
April 2006
Jim – My name
is Lisa Pierce – I just wanted to thank you for a great time
yesterday. That was my first jump yesterday (with Matt) and it
was great. I would like to go again soon. Please let Matt know
how much I enjoyed the jump. He was great.
Thanks again
April 2006
I WOULD LIKE
TO THANK EVERYONE YESTERDAY FOR GIVING ME THE THRILL OF MY
LIFETIME. EVERYONE WAS SO PATIENT AND NICE. SPECIAL THANKS TO
MY INSTRUCTOR, MATT, WHO WAS THE ULTIMATE. LISA, WENDY, LENNY
AND I SAY WILL DO THIS AGAIN.
AFTER
WATCHING US YESTERDAY, YOU MAY BE GETTING MORE LOCALS WHO WANT
TO TRY THIS.
AGAIN THANKS
TO EVERYONE AND WILL SEE YOU ALL AT OUR NEXT JUMP.
April 2006
I had the most
thrilling and awesome experience of a lifetime yesterday that
will never be forgotten and this from a person who is scared of
heights. This was all made possible by everyone in your club
that I came in contact with. I don’t remember everyone’s name
but your faces will be etched in my fond memories forever. A
special thanks to Benny my jump instructor. It was his expertise
and professionalism that helped me realize the thrill of a life
time and hopefully many more to come.
I was able to
experience this with my sister Susan, friends Lisa and Wendy. So
from all of us Thanks and we will be back again.

Greetings one and all
I'm at a loss for words. I am unable to express
to you the thrill I experienced today. The sensation was very similar to
scuba diving without the things that can eat you. No real sense of
motion--just a powerful, almost overwhelming sense of tranquility and
serenity. I get more nervous going to the malls at Christmastime.
The instructor, played by Rob, was
extraordinarily talented, knowledgeable, and most of all reassuring. Sissies
like me need that. Whenever a strange man is harnessed to my back I will
fondly remember him.
Kevin, the videographer did an incredible job
both shooting and editing my jump. Thanks for the music--simply awesome.
Please insist that any first timer get the video package as it is priceless.
Laurel's soothing nature and Northern Virginia
wisdom was very pleasing and calming. She is also an exceptional negotiator
when it comes to T-shirt sales. I don't know about her but for me it was
love at first sight.
You guys run a professional business, A-1 from
top to bottom. Godspeed to all of you.
September 2005
Just a quick note to say thanks so much for taking all the time you did to
help me with this surprise for my hubby. HE WAS TOTALLY CAUGHT OFF
GUARD...but enjoyed this experience. Everyone there was super sweet and
very sociable.
Again, thanks a million.
August 2005
WOW!!
THANK YOU!
DOUBLE WOW!!!!!!!
My uncle and I made our first tandem jumps on Sunday, August 14th. The
experience was incredible. We both are checking our calendars to
see when we can do it again. After
watching our videos, our friends who said we were crazy are now anxious
to go with us next time. We can't say enough good things
about the quality, courtesy and professionalism of the
staff.
THANK YOU AGAIN!!!!!!
August 2005
Hi Sky Dive West Point! Thank you SO much for such an amazing experience. I
can't even begin to tell you what an exhilarating time I had today. This was
my first tandem jump and Rob was my instructor. Rob was hands down the best
thing that could have happened to Sky Dive
West Point. Nervous was not an option because he just made me feel so
comfortable. Kevin did my DVD (highly
recommend having your jump filmed!) and I can't say enough about him either;
it's awesome to watch and think....oh my gosh, I just jumped out of a plane!
Everyone there, staff and other jumpers alike were beyond friendly. THANK YOU
THANK YOU!! I will never forget this day.
July 2005
I just wanted to tell you guys what a
wonderful group of people you have working for you. I was there on
Saturday July 16th for my first tandem jump. I had Matt for my
instructor & Rick for my videographer- and they both did an awesome
job!!!! I've talked to everyone about my experience, especially at work
and I'm hoping to have a big group of us come some time this fall for another
trip.
I had still pictures & video done and I
can't begin to tell you how happy I am that I had that done. It gives
everyone such an awesome view of what I went through, because needless to say,
I was so excited & nervous I couldn't remember everything I went through after
I landed.
I've attached one of my favorite pictures
Rick took of myself & Matt. {wish it would have been a clearer day}
Thanks again you guys for a wonderful
experience, and I hope to see you sometime this fall!!
July 2005
I just wanted to drop a line and let everyone know what a great time we had
the other day at West Point Skydive Adventures. I have wanted to do that since I
was a little kid. Many thanks to Rob for the excellent instruction, to Jason for
showing me the time of my life and to Kevin for the great video and still
pictures. Everyone that was in the hanger made the experience great. My wife was
even convinced to come back and jump. That being said, we'll see you in the
fall. I think I will try my hand at the AFF program (thanks for the compliments
on my tandem jump Rob). There aren't a lot of things that you can do now-a-days
that you walk away from feeling like you got your money's worth. Skydiving is
definitely one of those things. Thanks again.
July 2005
Hi! My first skydive was this past weekend - July 9th. A month
ago, a coworker was putting a group together to go skydiving and I immediately
knew I wanted to do it. As the days counted down, the more insane I thought the
idea had become. However, like others in the group, I told too many people and
couldn't back out of it. On the day of our jump, it became the most surreal
experience of my life. I definitely drew the long straw when Jason Baldridge
told me he was going to be my tandem instructor. Whatever anxiety I felt was
diminished through his sense of humor and easy going personality. Even though he
had done this countless times before, he still made you feel like you were his
first and only. And I can't say enough for my videographer, Rick Witcher. He got
incredible shots of the entire experience and for that I'll forever be grateful.
The first jump will never be an experience I'll have again and thanks to Rick,
I'll never forget it. And last but not least, thank you to our pilot for getting
us up to 14,000 feet safely! I had an incredible time and there is NO doubt I'll
be seeing you again! I'll never go anywhere but West Point!
June 2005
I just wanted to thank Dave
Milliron for making my first jump such an awesome experience. He
had such great energy and humor that I wasn't nervous at all. I'd
jump again in a heartbeat. Thank you again.
My name is Richie Nierman. I went for my 1st tandem jump last weekend
and I just wanted to say thank you very much for the ride of my
life!!!!!!!! And to thank my instructor Chris for making a fun filled
safe day. Can't wait to do it again.
Hey I did the first AFF jump last
weekend!!!
I was AWESOME!!! My friends and I thought it would be a once in a lifetime
thing but after that, well let's just say I'm coming back as soon as
possible.
Went skydiving for
the first time out there yesterday.(6/6/04)
Difficult to put into words. The experience was awesome, in the truest sense
of the word. Utter fear and horror followed milliseconds later by utter joy,
spirituality and inner peace. Never felt the sensation of falling. More like
floating. It's what I've imagined weightlessness must be like in outer space.
The free fall was my favorite.
Tell
Kris he was an excellent teacher and
diving mate. I felt completely safe in his company while falling
through the sky.
If
I could overcome my fear, anyone can. I must go again. I will go again. Soon.
I did a tandem skydive on Saturday afternoon at your drop zone. I loved it. I wanted to take a minute to thank you all for such a great experience.
Everyone I spoke with was very friendly and the atmosphere was relaxed and
comfortable. The Tandem instructors did a great job of explaining to me
what to expect and what was expected of me. My instructor, Dave Milliron,
was great. He made me feel completely safe and at ease, even though I was
about to leap out of a perfectly good airplane 14000 feet above the ground
for the first time. The friendly joking of the other instructors on my
flight up, also made the whole experience very enjoyable, as I was not
concentrating so much on my nerves and more on what was going on in the
plane at the time. By the time it came time to exit the plane, I was
surprisingly calm. I attribute this to the in-flight atmosphere,
instruction and calm, confident attitudes of the instructors. You guys have
a great staff, and if I do this again, I will likely return to West Point.
Plea
se pass my words of thanks on to everyone, especially Dave. What a
great day!
Thanks
The staff rocks, the instructors kick ass, and the experience is out of this
world. Thanks for a great first jump!
Thanks for a great time this past Sunday ...my first jump.. you guys made it
easy and I felt very much at home great group of folks. I'll certainly be
back..........Tom
Just wanted to let you know that Daryl and I had a great time last Saturday. Daryl
hasnt stopped talking about it yet. He is looking forward to receiving his video
from you. Daryl thinks that he is ready for solo jumping. I know that I am definitely not
ready to solo. You guys are great. You and the others made our trip so exciting. We
didnt have time to get nervous or scared with you guys around. Please extend
our thanks to Jamie, Alan, Chris, Ward (I think was my camera mans name) to just
name a few. We look forward to coming back in the future!
See ya later!
hi my name is Tom I did my first tandem jump this past Sunday Nov.
2nd.......and I just got off the phone with Willy to schedule my first
AFF jump......Skydiving is definitely for me......just like the hawk I
have Tattooed on my neck.....I long to be in the sky.......FLYING
....thanks to everyone at West Point for making it possible for me to
fullfill my lifelong dream of flying like a bird.......I will see you
all again on Nov.16th to begin my AFF training ...you guys are a great
group of folks and Im looking forward to spending a lot of time at West
Point Skydiving...........see you on the 16th.
Hi Jim. This is Ann Duvall. It has taken me close to two weeks to write
this
thank you, but it wasn't until two days ago that I got back on this
"plane"
again!
I am certainly more alive after that experience. I've shown the tape to
friends and they are quick to point out how comfortable and peaceful I look
up there. As far as the peacefulness , I think there was some "soul stuff"
going on up there, but as far as the comfort level, I attribute that to being
hooked up with someone I trusted!
Thank you again for taking your last tandem of the day with me.
Take care.
Ann
P.S. Yes, I am promoting Westpoint...
Thanks for working my sister and I in today. From the looks of things it
was
very busy. Also wanted to let you know of the professional, courteous, and
FUN staff you have working there. I plan on getting AFF certified soon. See
you soon.
Wade Martin
A HAVE DONE 2 JUMPS AT WESTPOINT AND IT HAS BEEN THE COOLEST THING I HAVE
EVER DONE. I WILL COMPLETE MY AFF
TRAINING BY THE END OF THE SUMMER.THANKS WESTPOINT FOR INTRODUCING ME TO THE WORLD OF
SKYDIVING.
AT 120MPH,
EVERETT BLACK
Greetings Jim & Carey! Thanks for an extremely exciting and
educational first AFF experience!!! I cannot wait to make my AFF2. Your drop zone view is
incredible. This, combined with your expert and friendly instruction made my 300 mile trip
from North Carolina well worth it. I will be happy to recommend West
Point Skydiving Adventures to anyone. Happy Landings,
Tim Lang
P.S. Say hello to little bro for me
I went tandem skydiving for my first time yesterday, and it was amazing.
I
tandemed with Doug, he was great and talked me through the whole thing. And
he didn't even seem to upset after I threw up on him( it was only a tiny tiny
bit cause I hadn't eaten or drank in 8 hours, but still). And Cecile did my
video. She asked me questions before and after my jump which made the video
even more interesting. The whole staff was great, they all had wonderful
personalities and at the same time still very professional. I will
definitely
be back there again for more. Thanks.
Jennifer DePasquale
I wanted to drop you guys a quick thank you note. I had such a wonderful
experience with Westpoint skydiving! I have now convinced three other people
in my office to skydive at Westpoint thanks to the video you shot for me!
Thank you again for the most exhilarating experience!
Hi everyone, I just wanted to thank you all again for such a wonderful,
intense experience last Saturday. Amy had a wonderful birthday, and Alex, Brian and I all
had the best rush of our lives! Thanks for making us feel welcome, and for calming my
nerves! I think I can safely speak for all of us in saying that we will be back soon!!
This past weekend (November 4th), I experienced my third jump at The Point. Each of my
jumps was exhilarating and unbelievably fun. I think I am getting hooked, so I will most
likely sign up for the AFF class early next year. Thank you for the thrills. I will
definitely recommend you to all of my friends.
Thanks for a fabulous experience!!! The best way to spend money!!
just wanted to thank you guys for providing the most thrilling experience of my life!
That's got to be the wildest 6 minutes i've had. your facility and crew are top notch and
did their best to make me feel safe AND made it as fun as possible! Thanks to Mike and
everyone else!!! And to Fitch for letting me barrow his right glove!!
Many thanks to your staff. I was nervous but everyone made me feel at ease. Jim was the
best instructor!!! I am looking forward to many more jumps in the future. Thanks again
I participated in the jump this past Saturday with the group from Ft.
Belvoir. I had a great time and was greatly impressed with the professionalism you
all exhibited coupled with the "Fun" aspect. I look forward to my next
opportunity to skydive.
Thank-you!
Thanks to Ken Wolfe and all the other professionals there at West Point Skydiving, I
had THE most amazing experience of my life! I felt very comfortable putting my life in
their hands and letting them show me the incredibly awesome world of skydiving. I couldn't
have asked for a more beautiful day - a little warmer maybe - or a nicer group of people.
Thank you all so very much!
Thanks to all, Kim and I had a wonderful experience this last weekend. Special thanks
to Matt and Holt the Tandem Jump masters and Doug and Mike the video masters.
P.S. We will be back...Phil and Kim Goodwin
My wife Jenna and I would like to thank the wonderful staff at WPSA for the most exhilarating adventure we've ever had. While both of us were just a bit
nervous about jumping out of an airplane, our instructors were able to calm our fears through their excellent coaching and teaching skills. They also
kept the learning fun, which made the whole experience more relaxed. We would also like to thank our videographer Dave Milliron and the production staff for
producing a spectacular video of Jenna's jump. The entrance and exit interviews were hilarious, and the shots of the dive breathtaking. The
addition of a rockin' soundtrack and video special effects show the professionalism of those behind the scenes. If you go, get a tape!
Thanks for an experience neither of us will ever forget. You will probably see us up there again, as we are already talking about when we're going to
do this again.
To Everyone at West Point Skydiving;
I want to give you all a huge thanks for my first jump experience on Saturday August
30. I had an AMAZING time. It really was the best thing I have ever done in my life. I
want to especially thank Dave Jones (he made it possible), Willy (he was so funny and got
me pumped just on the phone), Chris Bagwell (just breathe Chris, and relax), and Gelardi
(I LOVE my video!!!!).
Everyone there was so great and made me feel right at ease and it was so much fun. I am
definitely telling everyone that I know to come out to West Point and I am showing my
video to anyone that will watch it. The sticker is on the car too!!!
I will be back again, although I don't know when (gotta save my pennies!!), but I will
definitely be back. Maybe I'll come learn to pack chutes to pay for my jumps.........
hmmmmmm. : D
Thanks so much and I can't wait to see you all again!!
Skydiving was the most incredible experience of my life to date. West Point Skydiving
Adventures is an awesome DZ. The staff are incredibly friendly, professional, and
concerned about making the experience well worth it. You guys have my recommendation
anyday.
By the way, anybody who is interested in making their first jump should DEFINITELY
consider getting the video footage.
I'll be back for my AFF1
My wife and I just made our first jump (AFF) on 9/7/03. It was an awesome experience,
and the instructors were great! I jumped with Andy and Holt as my instructors, and Michael
(I think) as the videographer. Jim taught our ground school. They were all professional,
patient, and kind. They explained things thoroughly, and were great about telling me what
I did correctly and what I need to work on. I can't thank you guys enough, and I hope to
see you soon.
Jason, thanks for talking us into this!! Next beer's on me!!
Just wanted to say thanks! We jumped yesterday because of the bad weather on
Saturday. I have never felt so terrified but excited at the same time. I
