Does Skydiving Feel like a Roller Coaster?

This is another one of those questions I have been asked a hundred times. The very simple answer is NO!  You do not get that roller coaster effect when skydiving. Only a Zero G Dives can cause that feeling in your stomach.  Zero G is that slight pause where you go from climbing up to all of a sudden accelerating downward.

Its kind of hard to beat a day of playing in the waves and laying on the beach soaking up the sun.  When you are ready to do a little exploring you will realize that VA Beach has much more then just the water and surf. Here are a few places you should definitely try to experience the next time you are in  the area. 1 Military Aviation Museum: Of course this would be No Limits Skydiving first choice.
