Driving in:
We at Pussfoot love taking road trips. Road trips give us the opportunity to meet amazing people and visit new drop zones. Having our own car on a skydiving adventure gives us a sense of safety and an additional place to store belongings. Not to mention that there is so much to do and see in this area that a car in my option is a must. A close second is a friend with a car.
*Use Waze - this will route you around traffic and show you all the police. This app should save you some time on your journey.
*Do you really need to bring that? Pack light, you are still in America and can stop to get whatever you need.
*Get a BP rewards card. You will earn $ 0.10 off a gallon for every 20 you buy. * There are BP gas stations all the way down. This last trip I saved over $50.00 in fuel using one. You will find me putting the BP rewards card into every review. I swear by this card. I myself have filled a tank for under $1.00. truest me get one.
*Remember to take breaks, switch drivers and stay hydrated and fueled up. The most important part of any road trip is enjoying the journey, no need to rush!

In closing Pussfoot had an amazing time at Sky’s The Limit.  We were able to meet some amazing people and make lifelong friends. I personally know I will be returning this summer for some fun and storytelling around their massive fire pit. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and welcoming.  I only wish I had more time to explore and chill with all the great people that call Sky’s The Limit home.  Thank you to all who helped me make this guide possible.

  • Skies the Limit is by FAR the most welcoming DZ in this area. Us (an englishman and an aussie) were made to feel at home immediately and were treated like family from the first jump. Excellent planes, excellent people, just about all you need from a DZ!
