See What Makes Our Planes DifferentWhat to Expect From Your Tandem Skydive in Boise
New to skydiving? Here’s the simple version: you’ll check in at our Parma drop zone, ride up with your instructor, freefall, fly under parachute, and land back on our grass field.
Check-In & Training
Check in at the DZONE hangar, watch a short safety video, and meet your USPA-certified tandem instructor. They fit your harness, explain each step, and help turn nervous energy into real excitement.
Plane Ride to Altitude
The flight to altitude takes about 17 to 23 minutes. You’ll see Boise, Parma, and the Treasure Valley from above while your instructor stays with you, checks your gear, and prepares you for the rush ahead.
Freefall
When the door opens, you and your instructor leave the plane together. Freefall lasts about 30 to 60 seconds at around 120 mph: fast, loud, safe, and full of pure adrenaline.
Parachute Ride
After freefall, the parachute opens and everything slows down. You’ll spend about 5 to 9 minutes under canopy, breathing again, taking in the view, and feeling the calm after the rush.
Grass Landing
Your instructor guides the landing onto our private grass field near the hangar. Most tandem landings are simple: feet up, slide in, stand up, and celebrate the safest thrill you’ve ever felt.
