Don’t know if they are any good because for two years running I have tried to make a reservation and they NEVER have returned my calls. Save yourself the trouble, go somewhere else.

Ha! Unilocal’s 2-star means«Meh. I’ve experienced better.» No, I’ve never sky dived before, but I know there’s better stuff out there! I gave them two stars — one for the AMAZING views of the Cape. The other, for bringing me back on ground safely! We, a group of 5 decided to dive with them. This was a full price(no social deals) trip with all the trimmings — photos, DVDs and all! The good: 1. The staff is friendly, even though the 10 pages of paperwork mentions death in every legal sentence. 2. The views are amazing — on a clear day you can see all the way to Provincetown. I’m not going to comment on the thrill of the free fall, because that’s what EVERY sky diving experience provides. The bad: 1. The free fall barely lasted a 7 – 8 seconds and the parachute popped open. I’d rather free fall for a few seconds more and then just land. I am not a fan of roller coasters and therefore the choreographed twists and turns of the parachute didn’t impress me! 2. There is NO dedicated camera toting jumper. The camera(two, actually) is a super wide angle one strapped to the left wrist of the tandem guy. So, you’ll only see good shots of you when you are on the ground, ascending to 10K feet, or in a relatively stable situation. Apparently the camera(s) are on timer so they take pictures every second. That leads to my third gripe… 3. The $ 90 you pay for the pictures contains ~325 pictures, but most of them are CRAP because the tandem guy is busy maneuvering on the way down. 3. The $ 90 you pay for the video gets you a 7-ish minute clip which just seems like the ~325 pictures blended together… or maybe the pictures come from the video stills! (actually, if you get the pictures+video, it’s $ 120, so that’s $ 60 each!) Overall, the free fall is the only part I savored, but comparing the pictures and the video they make to the ones from another outfitter that my colleagues went with in Northern MA, and the height they went to(resulting in a longer fall), with a dedicated cameraman, for a marginally cheaper price(even without a Groupon), I’d say we didn’t get value for our money. But hey, we saw the arm of the Cape as we free fell!
