Another benefit of coming to a place as large as Skydive
City is that we can easily accommodate large groups,
if you are planning to organize a group of jumpers,
look no further -- not only are we the best at accommodating
your group, we can also offer you a great deal! Click
here for details. With our large aircrafts and abundant
staff, we can get several of your group members in the
plane at the same time, smaller drop zones are not able
to do that.
Skydive City is also centrally located - only a 1/2-hour
drive from Tampa and Lakeland, and about a 1-hour drive
from Orlando, St. Petersburg and Clearwater.
We always have been known for our international atmosphere
- Meet people from all around the globe and make friendships
that will last a lifetime. We have built new team training
rooms, the Sunset Beer bar is being completely remodeled
and we are in the process of expanding our Swoop Pond,
with all the new improvements to our facilities we are
expecting to attract even more people!
Skydive City
has also hosted its share of world class events. In
1998, 2003, and 2004 we set and broke new World Records
with 121 skydivers forming 2 separate formations on
the same skydive. We set another World Record with 42 skydivers building 2 formations
at NIGHT! In October of 1998 our own Team Z-Spot won
the gold medal in 4 Way Formation Skydiving (Advanced
Class) at the US Nationals, and in 1999, won the Bronze
medal in the same event in Sebastian Florida. March
of 1999, we lead the country with a record setting performance
of three consecutive 100 Way dives for the National
Speed 100 competition.
t is this sort of leadership that makes Skydive
City the innovator and world leader in all aspects of
Skydiving. We hope you decide to visit us and see what
we have to offer. Thanks for visiting our site!
