Yesterday me and my sister did our first tandem skydive! This was our first time stepping on a plane let alone jumping out of one! Wow! What an amazing experience, the day was perfect! My instructor was Dylan and my sisters instructor was Tom! Both guys were so lovely and made us laugh! I got to experience everything with my sister to being next to each other on the plane and even skydiving next to each other at one point! I was a little nervous but Dylan made me feel at ease and talked to me the whole way though it! All the staff were really friendly and thankyou to my camera man for filming (sorry can’t remember his name) can’t wait to see the professional photos! Definitely recommend it and I will be returning to do another one! Thankyou so much Dylan and Tom for giving us the best experience, we couldn’t have done it without you!

Thank you to everyone at Skydive Langar. You’ve allowed me and my uncle to raise an amazing amount of money for Cancer Research UK and we’ve experienced something amazing! Massive thank you to Dylan my instructor for calming my nerves and making me feel at ease! � the experience has taught me one thing... how much I’m determined to do it again!!

Thank you so very much for Sunday 8th July. I had a fantastic jump with Dan and Camera man Chris.

You were absolutely wonderful, very encouraging and I felt completely safe with you. The training was very informative and easy to understand.

I was concentrating so much on my position as I was getting out of the plane I forgot to wave....oppps.

Also, I completely forgot to bring my membership card home, any chance of posting it xx

Love and hugs to you all. You're all great x

On sunday i did a tandem skydive which was a surprise for my 1st Wedding Anniversary and for my 30th Birthday. Well what can i say my experience was absolutely amazing from start to finish, its hard to put into words how fantastic it was. Its the best thing iv ever done. All the staff were great welcoming and friendly would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to do a skydive � xx

On Friday (27th July) I did my first tandem skydive at Langar!

What an amazing experience!! If you are thinking about doing a jump...don't think... just do it!

Everyone at Langar is very friendly and professional. The briefing beforehand was detailed and clear and you have the opportunity to ask any questions you may have. Even though there was a brief thunderstorm in the morning this did not cause much of a delay at all and I was prepped and ready to go quite quickly.

A massive thank you to Linley Ewing who was my instructor on the day. He made me laugh and talked me through everything that was going on at all stages which took away any nerves. He really made my jump fantastic! I've definitely caught the bug and want to come back!

Brilliant! Keep up the good work :D

Omdz! I'm buzzing 😜🤣 I got my video today from my jump at the weekend and Skydive Langar you have truly made me one happy lady ❤️🤸🏾‍♀️my video is amazing, I love the editing especially the slow motion 👏🏽👏🏽and as for Linley he is a crackpot lol! With his funny faces pmsl! Thank you Baby 5⭐️And the camara man (sorry I can't remember your name lol) I could just hug you ❤️

Thank you again to everyone x

P.s if anyone is doing a jump, I would highly recommend having the video 5⭐️

My first tandem skydive today and from start to finish the experience was amazing. Other than a delay starting due to the weather I can’t pick fault with any other part of my day. Everyone from the lady on the reception desk through to the instructors and photographers were helpful, kept you informed, helped ease the nerves and ensured you got the most out of your jump. Special thanks to my instructor Tom for the cloud walking and rainbow spotting! I’ll hopefully be seeing you guys soon.

My first tandem skydive and what a bleeding amazeballs experience from start to finish. My tandem bff, Linley Ewing, made the dive so much fun and he puts you at ease straight away. I hear I'm one of the lucky ones that managed to escape his cheesy dad jokes (at least I didn't say you talked to much) Everyone at Langer made you feel so welcome, you kinda forgot it was your first time. Before my feet had even touched the ground, I wanted back up and to do it all again. Langar... I don't think you've seen the last of me... #TTM

My first tandem skydive June 30th. So glad it was with Langar! Made to feel welcome and at ease from the word go! Totally put at ease by my instructor and partner for my jump, Linley Ewing. Maybe it was his sense of humour and his jokes 😂😂, but there was no nerves on my part! To feel totally confident doing something like this shows what a great instructor he is! This will definitely not be my one and only skydive, but Langar, will definitely be my one and only choice! Thanks for the day, the experience and the continuing feeling of elation I still have!

My brother-in-law and I did our first skydives (tandem) yesterday, and what an unbelievable experience it was. All of the staff were extremely friendly and helpful and clearly love their job. Yes, there’s a fair amount of waiting - we arrived at 8:20am and went up in the plane around 12pm - but as it’s first come first serve, and with the weather being so glorious everyone arrived early, we were not surprised. There’s a cafe on site for refreshments although I can’t comment on the quality as I was too nervous to eat! My tandem instructor, Dan, was amazing - he made me feel as relaxed as possible and made sure I was enjoying the experience to the max. Thank you for one of the best experiences of my life!!

Me and my sister completed a tandem skydive despite having never boarded a plane before and had the most amazing day! The weather was lovely and all staff were extremely friendly. Tom was my instructor and Dylan with my sister and both of us had a great laugh with them pair! Tom made me feel very at ease through the whole skydive from jokes and banter with them both, to getting group photos with my sister and instructors on the plane! Let alone skydiving next to each other at one point, it was an amazing experience and we can’t thank them both enough!! The photographers we both had were so professional and captured every aspect of the skydive! Well worth it and would recommend it to anyone, thankyou Tom and Dylan for giving us the best experience possible!!

I did my sky dive for Dove cottage hospice day centre, I managed 2 raise £250 and it was bloody fantastic from the moment I arrived at reception till the the safe touch down bk on the ground, the whole experience was fantastic can’t fault none off the staff, I thoroughly enjoyed my dive, nd the video nd pics r brilliant aswell it was such a lovely blue sky on Friday 16 July that the video nd pics really show what an amazing � time I had up in the sky, thank you all at Langar skydive centre, I had a really brilliant time c u all again next year if not b4 u was all just bloody brilliant.

I completed my first tandem skydive on Sunday and I can say it was an amazing experience from when we arrived to when I was back on the ground!



We had a slightly delay due to weather but we where kept informed.



The skydive its self was amazing , the instructors kept us all informed through out the Day and the jump!



All the staff, instructors and camera men where amazing!



Thank you to you all!



I’m sure I’ll see you again soon!! ��

Has been a life long ambition to parachute jump as my Grandfather was in the Parachute Regiment during the war (Q the Uncle Albert "During the war..)



My ambition was to jump with him, I was too young he too old and eventually time beat me so all I could take was his memory and what a memory I gained..



Linley was our Instructor and he was fantastic from the start, humorous, witty, warm and above all calming �



All the way on the plane he was chatty, calming and humorous so when it came to jump my oh my I was more than ready with no hesitation and nothing will ever beat the moment you leave that plane...



I cannot believe I haven't jumped earlier... amazing, fantastic, call it what you want but my days... thank you thank you thank you!





Not forgetting the amazing Gary who was the assigned photographer! He too was warm, calm, inspiring and professional and I am so happy with the pictures and video!



So Gary and Linley take a bow! Thank you to you both for an unforgettable experience and to Skydive Langar!!!



Don't hesitate just book it and do it!

Did my very first skydive on 16th June and was absolutely amazing. Would recommend Langar to anyone wanting to do a skydive all the staff are very friendly and accommodating, also thank you to my Instructer for the best day ever! Any advice how to get my ears to pop ��

Did my first tandem skydive today as part of my 50th birthday celebrations, but didn’t do it alone as my son Luke joined me.

Wow what an amazing experience, all the staff are friendly and my Instructor Tom made me feel so relaxed and at ease, kept talking to me all way the up in the plane and then back down, to say I have a fear of heights I over came that today and definitely will be back to have another go, thanks Tom, would also like to thank my sons Instructor but couldn't remember his name and both the cameramen, amazing guys

Did my first tandem skydive on Sunday 27 May 18 and loved it. Raised lots of money for the Alzheimer’s society too. Great place and great staff especially Linley my instructor, he put me as ease and was great fun a lovely guy made the whole experience fantastic. Thanks Linley, might see you soon. If you are thinking of giving it a go, do it, it’s awesome.

Did my first skydive this morning and absolutely loved it! My tandem partner Tom kept me laughing to keep away the nerves, as did the cameraman Shaun (sorry if I spelt that wrong!). Definitely recommend for a cheeky little jump and I might even go back and learn how to do it properly � thank you!!

Despite the uncertain weather today the staff at Langar Skydiving did everything in their power to keep things running smoothly and attempt to ensure that we made our jumps. The instructors made you feel welcome and relaxed throughout the day. I couldn't fault my instructor Tom, and would like to thank him for making me smile and laugh throughout my experience totally taking the edge off my nerves, and for giving me a safe and completely amazing jump... beyond any of my expectations!. I Would totally love to come back and jump with you guys again x Thanks again x
