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.

By far the best experience I have ever had! The crew knew how to educate, ensure safety and make it the jump of a life! If you’re going to jump from a perfectly good plane this is the place to do it! I will be returning for many more jumps with Skydive the Wasatch!

From the moment you enter their facility, the staff is welcoming and courteous. The instructors are great and make sure you feel at ease, and you're educated in the proper technique. 10/10 would definitely recommend, and I will definitely be going back.

First time sky diving and from start to finish i can't imagine a better experience. Dan walked us through the paper work and our instructors were extremely confident and reassuring. Chris was my skydiving buddy and he was completely professional and fun. I have nothing but good things to say and would recommend anyone to drop out of a plane here.

My mother-in-law has had a dream of skydiving for years and years. Despite her poor physical health, she was determined. Leon was amazing and did everything in his power to ensure a PERFECT landing. It was so awesome! She hasn't stopped talking about it since!
