About Tandem Skydiving

Skydiving is an adrenaline-filled adventure at the top of many bucket lists. For your first-time skydiving, it’s all about the experience. The best way to get the most out of this experience is through a tandem skydive.

Tandem skydiving is one of the most popular ways to experience skydiving for the first time. The main reason? You won’t be doing it alone. You’ll be paired with an experienced and licensed tandem skydiving instructor. That means that you won’t actually be the one doing the work. It’s the job of the tandem instructor to keep you stable in the air, pull the parachute at the right altitude, and steer you back for a soft and safe landing.

    Leon and Adam were great. They were funny and personable. The experience was unforgettable. Nephi is great. Quiet airspace, beautiful scenery. While climbing to jump altitude, they took us along the mountain bench. The view was great. They did a good job explaining what to expect. The plane was solid. Highly recommend the experience.

    My experience at Skydive the Wasatch was top-notch! I was a little nervous to begin with and once I started working with my tandem instructor I felt safe and excited for this adventure. My daughter's persuaded me to join them skydiving to celebrate my youngest daughter's birthday and I am so glad I went along. It was an incredible experience. Definitely recommended. A++

    It was the best thing I've ever done. When I showed my friends the video, they totally loved it. I would love to do it again. The people there are so nice. They have free drink there while you were wating. Great experience in my life.
