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.

    these guys are super chill, the instructors are fantastic and definitely know what they are doing. i felt 100% safe the entire time. our group was met with nothing but hospitality the whole time we were there and they were very accommodating to us in virtually every aspect. (we did have to reschedule a couple times due to inclement weather, but that’s far outside anyone’s control) the overall experience was just fantastic and i hope to jump with these guys more in the future!

    I had an amazing time! Normally I am terrified of heights, but it felt like flying up there. I felt safe going up in the plane and jumping out of it! Definitely saving up to go again!

    Skydive the Wasatch is an incredible experience company. They made everyone feel welcome and part of the family. The hangar was comfortable for the watchers in the party. The gear was of the highest standard. It was a great experience for everyone. And we loved the videos at the end. Totally worth the upgrade.

    My dad and I jumped for our first time at skydive the Wasatch! We had an awesome time and definitely going to go back for more! Our instructors Matt and Austin did an awesome job making us feel safe and communicating with us how the jump was going to go! The whole crew was welcoming and just as excited as we were! The view was epic and the whole experience was 101/100. Definitely recommend this place whether it is your first jump or 10th, they're awesome! 🪂

    I went skydiving here a few days ago with a friend. We were both so nervous and had never done anything like it but the team here at Skydive the Wasatch made everything so much easier and really made you feel comfortable and safe! This is a great place to go for a first timer! Highly recommend!!
