Skydive Chicago

My daughter and I jumped yesterday for her 19th birthday. It was the first time for both of us. We had a fantastic time. Everything was well organized, and easy to follow.

My instructor, Chad, was fun to be with and professional. He explained things well and made sure I was following the procedures.

There's a moment of anxious anticipation as we sit in the doorway of the plane. And then we're free falling! The rush of free fall and then the peace after the canopy deploys is an experience like none other. It was a great time!

I got to experience my first jump yesterday for my birthday gift & I couldn’t be anymore thankful for this outstanding occasion! I loved every minute of it! I’ll definitely be back to jump again!
Me & my sisters experience was one to remember for a lifetime! The whole crew we got to jump with was very energetic and friendly.
My backpack (Jumper) was Baxter! He is a super chill, witty dude. He made sure to ask questions to see where my head was at in my experience, all the way down to checking in continuously to see how I was feeling. Baxter was very thorough with all the instructions and letting me know all the exact movements he was doing to ensure our safety which I loved.
Also, Thank you to Our photographer who was Silvio! He got some good pictures of my experience! Silvio is a great person to jump with as well!

Checked one off my bucket list on 7/22/23. 1st time jumper. Came with my daughter. I will definitely be back. The staff made me feel comfortable from the moment we walked it. Baxter was my instructor he was simply AMAZING. He helped calm my nerves and made it a dream of a lifetime.
Do be prepared to wait tho on a busy day. We did have to wait 4 hours. But it was worth it as the sun was just starting to set. Finished the night over at the Tiki Bar for a cold one.

I can't even put into words how awesome this was! Phenomenal experience! There's nothing like stepping up to an open door of an airplane at 14,000ft and falling out, talk about a rush!! My tandem instructor, Baxter, was extremely helpful, great to work with, and put my mind at ease regarding what we were about to do.Shout out to the videographer for making this so amazing and capturing some GREAT shots!

Just jumped today with Chad! He was absolutely amazing! I haven’t jumped in ten years but he made me feel so comfortable and excited! Everyone was so wonderful at Sky dive Chicago! Can’t wait to go back! -Jessica Smith(posting using my daughters google account lol)

Second jump in my books but a first for my sister and her boyfriend. We were on vacation and decided to skydive at Skydive Chicago, definitely didn’t disappoint! Best decision we made, I can say that this one was better than my first. My instructor Matt and videographer Chad were amazing thanks to them I have an awesome video and pictures to show off! Definitely looking forward to taking some classes so I can jump solo!!

5 Star experience, all the way! Just a beautiful facility and a professional staff.
Shout out to my tandem partner, Silvio! He was amazing from start to finish. And a big thank you to our cameraman, Matt! Wonderful, high-quality pics and video of the entire spectacle! I loved it!

First time jumper and immediately lifetime future fan! Skydive Chicago, is a great place if your looking for a great experience! The facility has tons to offer, and very well kept up! Quick, easy and informative check in. Food, games and things to do while you wait for the jump. My instructor, awesome! Great energy, extremely helpful in going over the procedure and making sure we were on the same page! Silvio! You are best my brotha, I am definitely doing this again and I will looking forward to my next tandem jump and furthering myself to solo dives! But when I do, I'll be sure to to ask for you Silvio, can't wait to strap in with you soon! One love🤙

Best time of my life! The entire experience was breathtaking and amazing! The instructor i had Baxter was incredible! I loved everything about my skydiving experience.

My friends and I finally decided to skydive after a while of talking about it and it was honestly such an awesome experience. I got Matt T. as my instructor and Daniel as my photographer; both were great and had a very energetic and contagious personality. My friends also had a great experience with their instructors and photographers. Can’t wait to go again!

My husband and I went to Skydive Chicago for our anniversary. We were very comfortable with the whole process and our instructors were great! I had Baxter jumping with me and he had Silvio. My husband got over his fear of heights and couldn’t say enough positive things about his instructor and the entire experience. My instructor was very knowledgeable, skilled and a lot of fun to jump with. The video and pictures were great and a great reminder of our first jump. I didn’t have to be afraid to jump because I knew we were in good hands and our safety was top priority. We already scheduled our next jump. Thank you Sky Dive Chicago for a great day and we will see you again!

Absolutely amazing place. Go grab your balls and GO SKYDIVING!!! HERE!!!

I came here in a group of 5. All of our first times ever. We went TWICE in one day.

My tandem instructor was Ryan Reb, absolute champion!!! If you are coming here I highly recommend jumping with Ryan. This guy was a huge professional, knew how to explain everything, got me knowledgeable about all the hand signals. by my second jump I was getting everything down! They have a deal for $199 if you purchase your 2nd ticket within 1 week and you go within a year. I highly recommend you do this, if you went once and liked it, the second time is WAY BETTER.

I got the pro video package so I was able to have a videographer out there with me, I got Baxter (I thought his name was Bastian so I kept calling him that, sorry Baxter.) Baxter is awesome, made me feel like a true VIP throughout the whole experience and working with Baxter and Ryan man it was a fantastic time.

great vibes from everyone working, I watched as the instructors would walk out one by one calling our names, they were super friendly and really got you calm and excited towards jumping out of that plane!!

Here are some pics with me and Ryan, thank you Baxter for the pics and awesome videos. Thank you chicago skydive.

Best day of my life.

I was so unbelievably scared to be jumping out of a plane but my amazing tandem instructor, Silvio, helped every step of the way. The crew at Skydive Chicago genuinely makes the experience of Skydiving 10x better. Also, their pictures/videos that they create for each jumper exceeded my expectations (see photos below).

Once again Silvio and the man who filmed (in one of the photos) deserve a raise or something, such amazing dudes.

It was an amazing experience, and a good view here. My instructor Ginger and videographer Kacey were the best! Ginger took good care of me and she was funny, so it made me comfortable to jump with her. The video and the photos were perfect in how they captured me enjoying the skydive and flying. Thank you so much Ginger and Kacey! The facilities are also very cool, and the pizza from the cafe was so good too. I would love to jump at Skydive Chicago again!

I enjoyed every minute of this experience! 10/10 recommended! Best adrenaline rush I’ve ever experienced in my life. Chad is absolutely amazing he made me feel comfortable and worry less. I will be back!

Silvio was absolutely amazing!! Was very good at explaining and demonstrating every step there is to skydive. I was very nervous going into it but Silvio calmed my nerves right away by making me feel safe through the whole process. I would definitely go back just because of him. I would also like to mention Daniel W. He was my photographer/videographer and he was absolutely amazing as well. He got every shot during the skydive so I’d be able to go home and brag to family and friends about how I’ve never been on a plane before but I had the courage to jump out of one. He also has such a good and fun personality which made my experience extremely fun. (His interview was one of my favorite parts). If I could recommend any duo to jump with it would be Silvio & Daniel. Thank you both for making my experience one I will never forget. 100/10 stars for both of them.

I did a tandem skydive for my birthday, and had a great time! Matt T was my instructor, and he was amazing. He was so professional and personable, made me feel comfortable and relaxed. He repeated what would happen and what I needed to do so many times, it was easy to follow instructions when the time came. Both free fall and the long ride under the parachute were awe-inspiring and a beautiful combination of exciting and relaxing. Skydive Chicago is an incredible operation. I can't recommend them and Matt enough.

Skydive Chicago is a very nice facility and the staff was great especially Ginger & Ron. Thank you.
