Paragon Sky Diving

Our experience of Paragon Sky Diving was truly awful and ruined what should have been an exciting, once in a lifetime experience. I booked a skydive for myself and my partner for her 30th birthday, with the video package we paid about £600 altogether. First of all the boss of the operation was a complete bully who spent most of the time shouting at people and being extremely rude to one person who didn’t have very good English. The organisation of the day was a complete shambles, there were about 10 other people there who were also waiting to jump which meant that the last person had to wait 9 hours in a car park with nothing to do. We jumped second last and waited 8 hours. By the time it was our turn we were so bored we just wanted to get it over with. The man I did my tandem with was very nice and professional, but the boss was disgustingly rude and deeply unpleasant to be around. The dive itself was fun, but my memory of the day is sadly tarred by the rest of the experience. If you are planning to skydive I’d advise you do it somewhere else.

Brilliant DZ , staff are friendly well worth a visit if you want to do static line courses , or a tandem .

Brilliant! Went up for a charity jump with my partner amd a friend and the guys were brilliant. Don't be fooled by how relaxed they are, they are proffesionals who have jumped out of perfectly good planes for years. One of the guys had done his 999th jump but didn't want to do his 1000th until he was with his mate. The gent I jumped with had jumped well into a thousand on that one plane and also jumped elsewhere for years! Had a great time and was an experiance I'll never forget.P.S. When the door opens **it getrs real!

What a laugh, great day, if u want razzamataz go to vegas or dubai if u want a jump with normal folk that jump out planes as a hobby and that own a airstrip and use an old sessna go here, dont expect 5 star champagne and limos you will only be left with an irn bru and an auld bus .. Young Billy is a character Best day and laugh ive had in ages

AWFUL AWFUL experience. The whole thing actually feels like a SCAM. Unbelievably rude staff and ZERO professionalism or customer service....firstly we arrived to a closed office and no staff, when a guy (guessing the owner) finally arrived about 30mins late there was ZERO hello, welcome or introduction, just a disclaimer form shoved in your face as we're rudely told to fill it in and make our payments immediately! I was told to make FULL payment , but that the jump would likely be cancelled and we would get ZERO refund...as this was the only day I could jump I said i can't pay if its cancelled because I cannot reschedule it (we'd already paid a £50 deposit as well, and other customers were on their 4th attempt as its cancelled so often) ...i was rudely shouted at yet again, and told that the full £270 was for training, but in the end i was allowed to join training anyway without making full payment at this point ...The training" was about 5minutes long and because the guy was so rude and aggressive I couldn't ask any questions

What a fantastic experience! This was the second time we had travelled for our tandem sky-dive, thankfully the weather was on our side this time. Myself and my brother had Mark and Ian as our ‘other halves’ for our jumps - and they were fantastic!The flight up was the nervous bit, but Ian kept me calm and made sure I was good to go when we hit 10,000ft.From start to finish we had a great day. Mark and Ian were full of chat and made sure we were confident on all fronts before we took off. Thanks guys!

Such a beautiful setting in a central location. I actually went along to cheer on my better half. Unfortunately the day quickly turned sour after a customer asked a question to the “boss” and was shot down with sharp answers and quite frankly the worst customer experience I have ever witnessed, it actually had the woman in tears, this left the woman in such a state and she never felt safe after her encounter. I asked the “boss” who the owner is and it was him, not interested in rectifying anything. I was subsequently told that any complaints had to go to the BSA (British Skydiving Association). I would be appalled if I was a member of the BSA and this business was hell bent on providing such a poor standard of customer service.Read the reviews and use your judgment but my advice would be to spend your money at one of the more friendly/well run/professional/family run businesses.

Had a great day, sun was shining the guys were fantastic with us, and we completed 2 tandems. I would recommend Paragon to anyone wanting to do a dive
