Find drop zones near you

Our take written by Freefall Fanatics
Freefall Fanatics lists the 169 USPA Group Member drop zones in the U.S. and quotes what each one's own website says about tandem jumps. USPA describes drop zones as independent businesses that set their own requirements, so the quotes here come from the drop zones themselves.
The finder above sorts drop zones by straight-line distance from a ZIP code. The requirements page gathers the age and weight statements we could quote from 87 drop zone websites, and the first-skydive and safety pages quote USPA directly.
