JUMPSUITS IN STOCK!

Standard jumpsuits in assorted sizes and colors. If you need a new jumpsuit, ask at Student manifest to see what we have in stock. This is much easier than ordering (and waiting months for) a custom suit. $200 tax included, ready to put on and jump!

(Sorry, you can't jump it till it is paid for!)

SUPPORT SKYDIVE ORANGE! Buy a BRICK to help fund the imminent construction of our new hangar.

MANIFEST HELP WANTED weekends- Email if you are interested. This involves signing in licensed skydivers, communicating with the pilot, fueler, checking jumpers' paperwork, and making sure the plane flies on time. All day weekends, somewhat flexible schedule. If you are good at fitting round pegs in square holes, Square pegs in round holes, and coordinating a changing schedule on an ever changing basis all day long while tending to a stream of customers, this job just might be for you!

GLOVES! We have a complete inventory of our best selling gloves.

AADs are mandatory at Skydive Orange. In fact they are mandatory at all leading Virginia and Washington DC / Maryland area skydiving places!

WEDNESDAY - FRIDAY - by appointment in the heat of the busy summer season, when we have a full time Otter pilot available, ready to fly the Otter if there is enough interest, which can work well for progressing AFF students.

Planned Weekday Jumps:

This Schedule helps LICENSED SKYDIVERS know when we plan to fly the planes for student skydivers so licensed skydivers can join us for WEEKDAY $19 OTTER JUMPS!
