DISCOUNT SKYRIDE SCAM WARNING!
Comparing us to the places that advertise $30 discounts, $40 discounts,
$160 skydives? There are some skydiving places with over 800
websites arranged to troll for unsuspecting first time skydivers and those
looking to buy Gift Certificates for skydiving.
Once someone buys one of their gift certificates and someone tries to
use it, they are sometimes sent several states away, possibly to a questionable non
USPA Affiliated Skydiving Center, and may have to pay a "port fee", "homeland security
fee" or other add-ons that bring the cost far above our prices- the
net effect may be that the jump ends up costing way more than the advertised
price. We
do not accept certificates from Skyride, Skydiving Team, Soaring Sports,
skydivingteam.com, thrillplanet.com, 1800skyride.com, nor Skydive America. Or see what there is
to watch out for on the RIPOFFREPORT.com pages for 1800
Skyride, Soaring Sports, Adventure Skydiving Center - or to file
your own ripoff report on these guys if you have been a victim.

| Update 12/12/06:
And so it continues. There is a new series of websites called THRILL
PLANET with the same basic format as Skyride; no locations
given on any or their webpages, other than the address of the main office
is in Marietta, Georgia, only 1 hour, 16 minutes from Cedartown, GA, where
the folks from Skyride are... |
If I were the Skyride guys, I'd probably start a new company with a different name and no reputation at all so I'd be able to start with a clean slate. Websites are easy for them to build!
Here are more details about discounted skydives and Skydiving Gift Certificate Scams. These places also sell balloon ride, hang gliding, and soaring certificates.
Here is first skydive Information for first jumps at our legitimate, USPA Group Member Drop Zone in Orange, VA.
