Jumping with iSkydive DC means unforgettable views in every direction! You’ll fly high above rolling farmland, lush forests, and the scenic foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. On clear days, you can even spot the distant outline of Washington, D.C. It’s the perfect mix of countryside calm and high-altitude excitement — a truly breathtaking way to see Virginia from above!

You must be at least 18 years old to skydive.

Dress comfortably with weather-appropriate clothes and lace-up shoes. No shoes with hooks on them please.

Definitely! We love having spectators. There’s a viewing area where they can cheer you on!

Most first-time tandem skydivers spend 2–4 hours at the drop zone. This includes check-in, training, some built-in wait time for your turn on the plane, the jump itself, and post-jump celebration. (Sometimes the timing depends on weather or air traffic, so plan accordingly!)

Absolutely! Eat like you would before a moderate workout — not too heavy, not too empty. A light meal helps keep your energy up.

Delays can happen due to weather, air-traffic control, or aircraft maintenance. We do our best to notify you at least two hours before your scheduled time, but sometimes changes happen last minute. We always build some buffer time into the 2–4 hour experience window.

Yes. There is an extra fee for guests over 200 pounds, with a max weight limit of 240 pounds. All clothing and gear are included in the total weight, and everyone is weighed on arrival. Safety and equipment limits are based on manufacturer specifications and FAA guidelines.

Sorry, it’s not allowed. The United States Parachute Association (USPA) doesn’t allow tandem students to bring personal cameras on the jump for safety reasons.
The good news? Our professional videographers and photographers capture incredible HD footage — check out our media options and sample videos to see what media option you want for your first jump experience.

Easy — pay attention to the instructions, take a deep breath, and remember, everyone feels butterflies before their first jump. The moment you exit the plane, you will be flying like a bird.

Super easy! We’re located at 5075 Airport Rd, Midland, VA, just a short drive from Washington, D.C., and Northern Virginia. The route is simple and scenic — you’ll cruise through beautiful countryside on your way to the dropzone. Once you arrive, check in, gear up, and get ready to trade the road for the sky. The hardest part isn’t getting here — it’s coming back down!

USPA says that skydiving has gotten much safer over the years.  But there are still risks with jumping out of an airplane, which for many people adds to the excitement.  You can read more about the risks involved in the waiver.  We love skydiving and we look forward to showing it to you!
