I have always wanted to do a skydive. Two days ago with 6-8 hours training, thanks to the Black Knights Parachute Centre, I completed my first AFF level 1 skydive from 15,000ft. I’ve never skydived before. I had the best training, encouragement and experts on hand during the whole day. It was a real leap of faith from my perspective but looking back I realise they were there all the way, to the most perfect landing I could of wished for.The location is on the west coast, gorgeous surroundings and not far from the Forest of Bowland (lots of amazing walks and pubs around). We made a trip of it as we traveled up from Bristol.Luckily if you have people who do stay around for the day they have a (cash only) cafe on hand for hot drinks and basic food for everyone (with a discount for club members - which you will be if you’re jumping). Unlike the full training day, tandem jumpers have a two hour training but still may have to wait until conditions are in their favour so the on hand cafe and toilets were brilliant.The training was very thorough and covers everything you may encounter during your descent. If you are going to do this for the first time, you don't need any prior knowledge as they really do bring you up to speed with everything ;)During the morning it was unfortunate but I witness a skydiving accident. A bad landing from a solo jumper, who was not trained at or by the black knights. This is very rare and wasn't somebody from the club. I believe it happened due to a last minute change in the wind, they tried to turn close to the ground, a manoeuvre that I believe not to be done in any circumstance. Although a challenge to witness, it didn't put me off… for a couple of reasons. Firstly I'd seen and understood what went wrong. I was reminded that with everything there is a risk; to drive a car, ski or do anything for that matter but with the right training and understanding these risks can be avoided. I was also told that I would be completing the full training and guidance to avoid anything like this from happening. And lastly I knew this would be a challenge to begin with, I just felt I had to focus on my training even more. I was scared, but looking back it was a rare thing to see. Not to forget that day I saw many safe and challenging landings completed with no problems and other first time jumpers do their jump successfully with no problems.The atmosphere at the Black Knights is great and I really felt the buzz because there were so many people there to skydive! You could easily watch and learn how, before even attempting it yourself.Having completed the training I was able to take the last flight of the day which is rare. We soured above the clouds and it was time to jump. What most amazes me of all is how my trainer Elliot, after finished our training, got into the plane with us, filmed me (a skill in itself), landed, packed down, all in time to help radio navigated me down!!! I am in absolute awe of how effortlessly and calmly he managed. This really makes me wonder...if he can do all of that, be totally chill and have a good time.... then I'm already thinking how I want to do it again. Particularly now I know what happens! :DI really was safe in every way. A student wont fall out the plane because there are two coaches to stop you on either side. I didn't have the perfect posture on my plane exit but they gave me the signals to correct my posture which I did (arch arch arch!!!!). Once in parachute mode, you can sail into (up) wind which means you are able to navigate to your landing area even if it feels like (in my case) you may of over shot. Yes there is always risk but that's what the training is there for. The Black Knights use the best kit, the best plane for skydiving, and they really enjoy what they do. Their enthusiasm is infectious and I hope it's not the last we see them.A bucket list come true, and over £896 raised so far with even more donations coming in after having completed the jump! :DThank you everyone from Black Knights PC!

Professional throughtout I cannot thank the guys that took care of me enough. I cannot believe someone like me conquered my fears and it's thanks to you guys at Black Knights. An experience I will never forget and I can pass on to my daughter the video, which is also worth buying. 5*

I booked through an agency and there were a few mistakes with the booking. When I turned up Black Knights were happy to sort everything out and got me jumping A.S.A.P.The instructor I had, named Unai, was a total professional and actually made jumping out of a plane at 15,000ft not that nerve racking!The video packing is a little expensive but if you're only planning on doing this once then I would totally recommend.

Great experience. All staff put you at ease and prepare you well for the thrill ride of your life. They do offer additional services (photos/dvd) at extra cost which is quite high but you dont have to purchase it. However, the quality of the dvd and photos are excellent if you do decide to go ahead. There can be delays whilst waiting to jump and it might even be cancelled after sitting around for a couple of hours but this is due to the fact that it is completely weather dependant and safety comes first. It is made very clear on the website and on arrival that you could be there all day. That being said, I arrived at 12pm and had completed my jump by 3pm as the weather was beautiful which resulted in no delays. There is a cafe and an indoor and outdoor waiting area for spectators. There are toilet facilities and baby change table in the ladies bathroom.

What a fantastic experience! Received this as a gift for my 40th and ticked off a life-long ambition. Special thanks to to Elliot and Elliott (1t and 2 t's!) who made the whole experience so enjoyable. It's always good when you see people clearly knowledgeable, skilled and enthusiastic about what they do. My advice: do it, and if you do, do the 15,000 ft jump and get the video.What an experience. Can't wait to do it again!

Highly recommend them. Will be back to do another jump one day. I had the VIP cameras too. The video they did of my jump was excellent. Very professional with lots of fantastic photos too. Definitely worth buying just for the brilliant memory to keep. Thank you Black Knights for making my day a very memorable and enjoyable one! 😀

As a thrill seeker, I had high expectations of my 1st skydive. My expectations were surpassed. My family, friends & I all had an absolutely phenomenal day. The whole experience henhanced by the friendliness, professionalism & efficiency of all the Black Knights staff. Safety being their paramount concern. The training is brilliant, you have no doubt about what you have to do. You're made to feel relaxed & ordered to have fun & enjoy. I took full advantage of that order. The ride up to 15,000 ft is exciting,you fly out over the Irish Sea then back in land, to spiral up. When you get up there the view is spectacular. You're already attached to your instructor who the tells you to hutch along the set to the door. You sit on the floor with legs out of the door & arch yourself back. The wind is now hitting you like a hurricane. Your instructor rolls you both forward. Then you see the ground so far away but hurtling towards you at speed. Free falling from 15,000 to 3,000 ft literally takes about 1 minute. There is so mch to take in but not enough time to do it. Your instructor taps your shoulders to tell you to bring your arms into your chest. Then he deploys the parachute. You have a sudden deceleration as the canopy opens. Then the wind that's been battering past your cheeks stops. Everything is suddenly do quiet & serene. You get time to take in the view again. You can see Blackpool Tower & the three piers, Southport, the mouth of the Mersey, Morcame, Barrow in Furness. All as your instructor controls your descent yo swing you out & round as much or as little as you like. He runs you through your landing position to make sure you can hold your legs up out of the way for touch down. All the time the landing zone is getting closer. Then it's time to bring your legs up for the landing. I was expecting to hit the grass with quite a bump but the instructor controls the speed so that it's no worse than flopping into a chair, followed by a short slide along the floor. I'd like big thanks to go to Lee my instructor who did 1 he'll of an amazing job. He made an already exhilarating experience totally unforgettable. Also big thanks to all the staff at Black Knights for making it an exceptional day all together.

What an amazing experience..a person who had the biggest fear of flying I came away wanting to go up again..the facility, staff was fantastic..and then onto my instructor who was a true genius in what he does straight away I felt at ease he kept me calm from taking off to touching down he talked me through every step over and over whilst climbing to 15,000ft. I can honestly say he made my experience more enjoyable I can’t thank Roger Hughes enough...The A Team🙋🙋..he is a credit to the black knights xx

Sky diving spot on, but wait was unnecessarily drawn-out; we were booked in for 9am, but didn't jump until after 2pm - just stagger the bookings for AM and PM groups, so the whole day isn't wasted sitting around in the somewhat sparse waiting area.

The only problem was the waiting, far to long for the young kids that were there....Nothing for them to do. Thought the skydive was at 10.00am but didn't get in the air till 4.45pm, thought this was a bit misleading, yes of course the weather played part of the problem as it was all about the safety of the skydivers. But for people who paid £400 for a said time , you don't expect to be hanging around for 7 hours. It turns out students were taking priority over tandems....this wouldn't have been a problem if we had been informed aprox time of the jump instead we were told in the morning that our wait wouldn't be too long no further information was given. Apart from that the staff and Chris were brilliant and a great keepsake dvd, photos and keyring were well worth getting.

I had a tandem dive from 11,000 feet. It was absolutely incredible. Nothing can prepare you from hanging from the side of a small plane and dropping into a cloud. The feeling is one you will never experience unless you try this. I can only recommend going from the highest option as you will want the sensation to last as long as possible. The silence is eerie when you're up there. The fall is indescribable. The landing is a mix of relief that you're down but sadness as its over. Considering it makes no sense to want to jump out from a plane at a stupid height. You will find you've already made plans to do it again.

Just completed my first skydive last Saturday, as it was a surprise gift from my husband on this birthday week and we share the thought of taking this adrenaline rush in life once.The instructor briefing is very good.Also my tandem instructor Lee(Lee Rhodes) made sure to practice the positions before the jump! My only fear was to pass out (as I watched that happened to someone online), blush that video would have been such a mess.Lee pumped all the fear out with his convincing witty chats, reminding to have a calm relaxed brain and converting the altitude from feet to meter/showing how to look stunning in the photos on the free-fall. Experiencing the beauty of sky after jump without relative velocity is extremely awesome. After learning terms like drogue parachute, piloting the canopy etc. the best feeling in the air from the moment of free-fall is the reason I want to jump again.Last but not the least, I am amazed by the young photographer Elliot who jumped with us to shoot the brilliant photos/videos, kudos to the teamwork they have done to make it utmost enjoyable to the first time jumper like me. Lee showed me we reached 157 mph which was the highest speed for him on that Saturday phew 🙂

15:49 16 Jun 16

I would just like to firstly say a BIG thank you to Dave Simpson for landing us both safely on the ground. Elliott for filming this amazing experiance for me and Conner bringing it all together for everyone to see it was a really memorable Experiance for me. I have raised £1,100 for the Royal Manchester Childrens Hospital where my child has to attend. And i would definitely do it again as i felt safe and everyone was very professional but also helped you feel relaxed as you new you was in safe hands i have recommend you all to everyone. I hope you continue to help people have an amazing experience of their lives as you all clearly know what you are doing. And you never know you might see me again in the future 😉 Thank you again Kayleigh Berry

Would definitely recommend the Black Knights parachute centre. All staff are caring and very welcoming. Nice area with benches for family and friends if you are waiting a while for your jump (I had done my skydive within an hour). All staff try their best to keep you calm through the process and very reassuring (my instructor was Chris, Thankyou!) There is also a canteen there. And I would definitely recommend paying to get your skydive filmed!! Definitely worth it. Lovely place and lovely people, thankyou👍🏼

Amazing!!! All staff are friendly and easy going. They put you at ease as soon as you enter the building. Honestly all staff are a credit and I hope they get told that on a daily basis. Would definitely recommend anyone to do a skydive it’s also paying the extra money for the 15,000 feet and to get it videoed. Go big or go home. Was a brilliant experience from start to finish. Also my instructor Unai was excellent kept me talking and put me at ease as soon as he introduced himself. He made the jump so much easier for me. The photographer who’s name I have forgotten (sorry) because I’m silly 🤦🏼‍♀️ was excellent throughout the whole process he kept making me laugh. Anyone wanting to skydive, book it with these guys you’ll never regret it. Thank you

What an amazing day! From start to finish the team at the parachute centre made you feel welcome and looked after. The relaxing environment really helped our group keep calm before our sky dive. I jumped with Dave the rave, the South African with a great sense of humour. The jump went smoothly and I was also very impressed with the camera man (think he’s called Tom)! I would highly recommend getting the £120 package for the photos/videos, they are great quality and capture the moment. The benefit of 15,000 feet is the length of the free fall you get to enjoy for longer. If you are wanting food and drinks at the centre make sure you bring cash. I’ll certainly be back to have another go! ✈️
