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.

    I absolutely loved my experience at skydive the wasatch! The staff was very knowledgeable and friendly. They did a really great job of helping me feel safe so I wasn't nervous. The dive itself was incredible, I loved it! the view of the wasatch was so gorgeous. I would definitely jump with them again.

    This place is amazing. The staff is very competent and professional. They made me and my daughter feel safe and comfortable the entire time. Nephi was a great spot to jump. It was beautiful. I highly recommend Skydiving the Wasatch if skydiving is on your bucket list.

    Last Friday 7/15/22 I helped my grandson achieve a bucket list item before his departure for a mission on 7/18/22. SO----my 18 year old grandson had his 75 year old grandfather accompany him on his skydive. IT WAS GREAT!!!! We had Adam and Leon do the jumps with us. It was a tremendous experience. So glad I did it.
