Hey Minnesota, you have a new skydiving center! Welcome to Westside Skydivers - now the closest skydiving drop zone to the Twin Cities. We are located just 40 miles west of Minneapolis on Hwy 7 and just 30 miles west of Minnetonka.
Westside Skydivers is located at the Winsted municipal airport in Winsted, MN. Come jump over scenic Winsted Lake and also see the beautiful view of Lake Minnetonka! Westside Skydivers offers a full range of skydiving experiences. Whether you are making one skydive, or plan on making a hobby or career of it we will get you there. Remember we all started with one!
If a tandem is what is on your agenda, you can be assured it will be the most fulfilling experience anywhere. Our tandem students wear an altimeter and deploy their own parachute! Don't worry if you forget or don't want to, the trained professional will be here to assist you, so everything goes as planned.
If you are looking to make a hobby out of the sport, you will be going through the AFP Program. The AFP Program was developed by skydivers to make skydivers. All your training jumps are videotaped to help debrief the jump and get ready for the next.
So how did Westside Skydivers come to be? Well, after 10 years working for Skydive Twin Cities, I felt like it was my time to leave and start my own skydiving center. Through my working experience and world travels, I saw many things that I liked, and also some things that I didn't. This is what prompted me to focus on what is important to me and share what I have come to love so much with people - SKYDIVING!
Skydiving is so much more than just a jump; it is about the entire experience. This is what I will bring to each and every Westside Skydiver customer. I believe customer service is the key to everything, so from the time you arrive to the time you leave; you will have a bright smiling face helping you on your journey!If you have the gift to gab and bring out 10 of your friends to jump, your jump (the 11th) is free.
