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.

    Great place to experience a first jump and a growing skydiving center. Amazing views of the Wasatch mountains and MT Nebo. Get out and experience a Cessna skydive in the heart of Utah. Well maintained equipment and the feel of a farmland dropzone.

    I watched my wife go skydiving and although I wasn't thrilled about her going, I felt much better after I met the staff. My wife loved it and recommends skydiving the Wasatch without reservation. It was a major adrenaline rush for her.

    The team at skydive the Wasatch was incredible, super smooth experience and really cool people to work with. The jump was one of the most exciting things I’ve ever done, and they also helped me put together a proposal for my now fiancé which I couldn’t have done without them! On top of all that Andrew has the nicest plane for sure, can’t recommend this place enough!!

    They have a great team that treats you like long time friends/family. The cost is much lower then the experience you receive. They're professional and make you feel safe. I'm 6'4" 230lbs and they where able to take me without any problems. I was a little put off about the extra fee for me being heavy but after my first jump, I'm happy to pay it. The instructions on how you'll exit the plane are a little like squirt from finding Nemo and if they animated their instructions a little, then it would be a lot like Squirt!
