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.

    I went into this skydive as 'a one and done', but that has since changed! This was the most AMAZING experience of my life! I can not recommend Skydive the Wasatch enough. From start to finish, the day was perfect, the entire team there is fantastic! Their location is great! The views from above are absolutely beautiful. I'm looking forward to my next jump at Skydive the Wasatch!

    What a great group people to share this experience with! Skydiving can be a nerve wracking experience to begin with but meeting the incredible people who work here instantly put our concerns at ease. My girl had a great jump for her 18th birthday and it was all because of these experienced and talented people. The location is also so much more beautiful then jumping in SL. I highly recommend making the drive to Nephi and jumping with Skydive the Wasatch!

    We had a super positive experience with Skydive the Wasatch! Leon was a great instructor who struck the right balance of humor, thoroughness and competence. He put my fears in context and helped me feel confident on my first jump. I loved my first skydive! Highly recommend!

    It was an awesome time!! Very professional and a good time for a great price!! The views of Mt. Nebo are spectacular and the staff and hangar are very friendly and a good place to just kick it. They make you feel very comfortable and safe. Leon and the crew are to notch. If you can ride a roller coaster, you can do this !! It was my first time and I recommend everyone try it out at least once, but as I know it's just like a Lays potato chip, you can't have just 1.

    Our experience was amazing. The instructors were great and really reassured us with their explanation of the safety features of the equipment and their expertise. Gorgeous views over the mountains and an amazing feeling of floating high above the earth. I recommend this place to anyone who's ever wanted to try skydiving. Would for sure go again.
