Come out and let us teach you how to skydive today! We are located in Xenia, Ohio and is within a reasonable driving distance of major cities in Ohio. Situated on a private airport, Skydive Greene County offers world-class training. We didn’t start skydiving but we are Ohio’s oldest skydiving school which opened in 1961!
Tandem Skydiving
Tandem skydiving is required if this is your first time skydiving. After filling out paperwork and watching a short video, you will be ready to make your skydive. Somewhere around 11,500 feet you will be secured to your tandem instructor. The door will open and you exit the plane.
Your freefall with your instructor will last for approximately 40-50 seconds. We can almost guarantee this will be the most exciting minute of your life as you reach the speed of around 120 mph, falling for about two miles back to the earth!
Don’t forget to have a video taken of your skydive to show all those that didn’t think you would jump from an airplane!
Static Line Courses
Once you have made your tandem skydiving, you can move on to our Static Line Program. The Static Line Jump is the traditional way to learn to skydive. We have classes throughout the year. Every student will be led through the entire day by a licensed instructor. Never does the student feel unattended.
Once training is over, students will make their first jump on that very same day! If the weather does not cooperate, you can come back the next day, or we will re-schedule a time to make your skydive.

It was a cold fall day, and I had just turned 8, the magic “qualified” age for . The sky hung low and heavy over our heads as we the steep streets that led to the stadium. Following my dad, I to keep up with him. We bought our treats and climbed up to the top of the . Our seats were in the third row from the top, so they were easy to . It was very important for us to be in our seats before kick-off, which made everything leading up to it a mad against the clock. We had just into our seats when a light rain started to fall. Everyone opened their umbrellas. the rain, Daddy and I had a great time.
Each year, I returned to at least one each season with my daddy. I these moments and looked forward to our time together. My dad and I became best at the football games.

I intently listened as he his childhood, my grandparents, the love between he and my mother, and politics at work in general.
When I was 19, The University of Utah was playing their opening game at Utah State University. Dad really wanted to go, and I really wanted to get those ; so we drove a long trip to Utah. We ate huge hamburgers we watched the game with the sun setting behind us.
This Sunday I will have the of climbing those steep streets leading to the stadium once more. I walk a pace now, so that my aged daddy can keep up with me.
In all my years of , I haven’t really learned much about football. The details of the actual game have never to me as much as the time I spent with my dad.
