Skydive the Wasatch IAD Program

Time to kick off your tandem training wheels? Our IAD (Instructor Assisted Deployment) Program is designed to put you on the fast-track to being able to skydive solo. 

USPA issues four skydiving licenses, A through D, indicating progressive levels of skill and accomplishment. A skydiver is considered a student until issued a license.

In this Instructor Assisted Deployment course (IAD), your USPA Licensed instructor will guide you through ground training and training/solo jumps to help you achieve your A-License.

Your progression will move from the instructor being responsible for deployment, to solo deployment, to freefall and subsequent solo deployment. One of the primary allures of the IAD system is that it is a less expensive entry method into solo skydiving than a similar AFF program would be.

    This place was awesome. It felt like family and they made sure we felt comfortable at all times. The view is gorgeous and the jump is just amazing! I got to steer the parachute and landing was softer than I thought it'd be. I highly recommend!

    I go every year here and it's just as amazing each time. The staff is absolutely fantastic and they make sure you have a great time and a great experience all throughout, not just in the jumping. It's always a smooth process and I love bringing people to jump for the first time here. I would highly recommend skydive the Wasatch to anyone who is new to skydiving or just wants to go jumping again!
