Skydiving Season in Virginia

No Limits Skydiving opens for the 2017 season on February 11th. We are open every day for Tandem Skydiving at both our locations in Virginia. We have two tandem skydiving locations in the state. Both of our locations offer beautiful scenes of the Virginia Landscape during your tandem skydive. Our facility in West Point offers views of the Chesapeake Bay along with three other rivers and is easy to access from VA beach. Hard to beat being able to see all the water while under parachute. The Victoria location has great views of the mountains and of Lake Gaston. The views here in the Fall time are amazing and reservations fill up fast during that season. During the winter we are closed for Dec and Jan due to it being so cold. This off time also allows us to have the gear inspected and ready for the next season. In Virginia we are lucky that winter does not last to…

Skydiving Record Attempts in Virginia

There are many types of Skydiving Record Attempts that take place every year all over the country. The type of records vary greatly. The are records for the largest amount of skydivers at night, the longest wing suit dive and of course for the largest skydiver formation in free fall. The largest formation is where a group of skydivers leave the plane and attempt to all hold hands in free fall. This is one of the most difficult type of records to attempt for a variety of reasons. This type of jump requires usually 4 to 5 large aircraft that are capable of reaching altitudes of up to 18,000 feet. They must also be able to contain oxygen due to being at high altitude for a prolong time. The Virginia State record is currently 87 skydivers linked up in free fall at the same time. This record was completed at our West Point location in 2004. No Limits Skydiving is…

When is The Best Time of Day to Skydive in Virginia?

In writing these blogs about "Skydiving in VA", I try to answer questions that we are most frequently asked. This is one question that we receive quite often.  Most people are going to make one skydive as a bucket list item so they want the best experience possible. The answer to "When is The Best Time of Day to Skydive in Virginia?" really depends on the season of the year. In the months of February and March, I usually will inform people that mid afternoon is the best time of the day. These months tend to be colder so jumping during the peak warm hours of mid-afternoon is the best time. In Spring time really anytime of the day works well. The weather is nice and comfortable all day. Our sunset skydive is very popular during this season. Summer time is of course our busiest time of the year. With the warmer temperatures in the morning it is really the…
