Customer Reviews

Had the best tandem skydive experience with Skydive Hibaldstow! from checking in, the safety briefing and skydive itself was all an amazing experience – would definitely recommend adding the video and photo package! Karl was a brilliant instructor, put my mind at ease and Charlie was an awesome cameraman capturing this incredible moment for me!

Everything from booking in by phone, checking in on the day, and through to after doing the jump was handled by professional, polite and friendly people. I felt well looked after from start to finish. Looking at the expression on my face at some parts of the video it would suggest I didn’t enjoy the jump. Rest assured I did. It was nerve wracking but fantastic. Special thanks to my tandem instructor Logan and cameraman Kirk. You two are stars. I would strongly anyone booking a jump for the first time to buy the video package. It’s worth every penny and something to look back on in the future. Many thanks to everyone at Skydive Hibaldstow for an unforgettable experience.

What a fantastic experience from the minute we arrived to when we left. Everyone is so friendly and the organisation is exceptional giving great confidence before we even had our pre-jump briefing! Brad (my instructor) was superb. He gave us all the briefing and was really funny putting us at ease and answering all our questions. I was lucky enough to then have Brad as my instructor and he was brilliant – he was funny but so professional and he constantly checked I was OK and reassured me. Our cameraman was also amazing and did a brilliant job providing a great video and loads of photos. Absolutely loved the whole day, would love to do it all again. And hopefully we’ll be back soon. Well done Skydive Hibaldstow!

What an amazing experience, me and my partner Neil, both did a tandem jump on Monday 6th May. The whole experience was fantastic. Each member of staff was so friendly and helpful. I jumped with Karl Peart, he put me at ease every single minute of the journey. He explained everything in detail throughout and made me feel at ease – on landing I said never again but I think I will do another. My partner jumped with Barney and had a great time too. Thank you all for an amazing memory.

Had a tandem skydive booked as a gift for my 50th birthday, which took 3 attempts to do it due to the British weather and even yesterday was touch and go with the clouds and rain!!!! Instructor was Geoff, put me at ease and passed on on all his knowledge to me, jump was amazing loved it would defo do it again given the chance thank you Geoff and all.

Absolute amazing experience for my first tandem skydive! All the staff from the reception, to the instructors that did the briefing and the one I was strapped to for the jump, to the videographer and to the canteen staff were so friendly and polite. It was such a thrill! I can’t wait to go back. Thank you all for making it a memorable experience that I’ve ticked off my bucket list.

We accompanied a friend of ours that was doing a tandem jump for charity and, having scanned though the reviews on here, I thought I’d add one from the point of view of someone that didn’t strap on a parachute but just watched from the lovely, solid, safe, reassuring ground.

The whole place is incredibly well organised, you absolutely felt as though the jumpers could not have been in better hands. Additionally, we couldn’t have been treated better either – the breakfast sandwiches were amongst the best I’ve ever had, the coffee was excellent and the café was extremely comfortable and roomy. Add into that mix the fact that we were able to buy the jumper a beer afterwards (we all had one too, it was stressful for us as well…honest) and you have perfect indoor facilities coupled with tons of outside space to watch the jump itself. There’s some fabulous World War II history on the walls too – all about this base and others nearby.

We were lucky, the day was absolutely perfect for throwing yourself out of an aeroplane, but even if the weather isn’t quite as good I’m sure the view as the parachutes gradually, gently descend to ground would still be great. Just don’t pay any attention to the first few as they land – they are the photographers and seemed to be having a competition over how fast they could make the last turn and approach before their feet hit the floor!

All in all, whether you’re jumping or just watching, this is a fabulous way to spend half a day. You might even strike lucky – they were asking whether anyone else wanted to go up while we were there.

What a thrilling experience, I did the 15k jump last weekend and the weather was amazing. The entire team were very welcoming from beginning to end. I did a tandem with Nick and he was phenomenon and ensured I was comfortable throughout the jump. Would definitely recommend. And make sure you get the photos/video package.

What a great day! An amazing experience made even better by the staff. Did the 15,000 jump with my partner. I had Nick as my instructor and my partner had Carl, they were both amazing, massive shout out to nick, could tell I had nerves about the jump but was very supportive and funny putting my mind at ease throughout the whole experience even during the jump. Venue is great, very clean toilets and offer a great range at the canteen. 100% would recommend! Thanks again! xx

Words can’t describe how gold this place is. From the experience of the skydive to the staff and to the services available here. I bring groups of people here to do the tandem skydive for charity. Rachel is amazing when dealing with the charity bookings. Making sure I’m always looked after and always taking care of our needs. Even allowing us to pray there which we were very grateful for. Rob what a legend. Always taking care of the skydivers who are a bit scared of the skydive. 10/10 place.

I was challenged to do a tandem jump for charity at the beginning of the year. The date finally came up and guess what, it was sunny blue skies. I did my jump from ten thousand feet – that was high enough for me and it was a lovely experience. The instructor (Charlie) really helped to explain things for me, told me what to do in the aeroplane and how to adopt the a freefall body position.

It all went smoothly, although very fast. I’m going to come back next year, do another charity jump and this time really go for it with a skydive from the highest altitude which I believe is fifteen thousand feet. Can’t wait!

Did a skydive in July for a charity. The instructors were professionals who really knew how to take care of their students. The vibe was excellent, a friendly bunch and have already recommended others to this place. I will be hoping to dive again quite soon.

Simply wow, we had a mega time at Skydive Hibaldstow. It was on my bucketlist for ages and now I’ve finally got to do it. I choose the 15000 feet one and decided to be brave. I went with my family and they loved watching me jump for the 1st time. There was defo some scary moments, but the team was cool and helped me overcome my fears. And the falling bit was by far the best bit – I recommend it 100% and will defo be looking to come back one day when my heart beat has calmed down.

Amazing experience, staff were friendly & made you feel at ease throughout. Special mention to Charlie who was my tandem instructor as he made me feel safe & gave me the incredible experience of skydiving. Would go back!
