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.

Super friendly staff. Very welcoming and helpful while going through the training. They allowed me to quote the original Point Break movie throughout the training and flight so automatically this makes them awesome. The landing was super soft at the bottom. Would definitely do it again.

I have done 4 jumps previously and this was my first time at Jump the Wasatch. First off: BACKFLIPPING OUT OF A CESSNA-182 ARE YOU KIDDING?!! It was amazing!! Nothing I have done before. The only problem is that I wish the free-fall was longer.

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.

The staff are amazing and make you feel very comfortable. Will definitely go again! They even let my daughter go in the harness and entertained her before we went. Great experience all the way around!

Two months ago I did my first tandem skydive. It was fabulous! Going back to Nephi to skydive again is one of my goals for 2025.

The instructors were awesome! The price was reasonable, the location was perfect! The view of the mountains were amazing! The place had drinks and snacks while you were waiting. My son turned 18 and it was the best birthday gift for him! He had a blast! We had a video made and it was totally worth it! Yes I will go again and again again!
