Are you on the hunt for the perfect gift for that friend or family member who thrives on adrenaline? Quit searching for “experience gifts for men” or whoever you’re shopping for, because we have the ultimate experience gift idea: a skydiving gift certificate! Nothing beats an unforgettable leap from an airplane!
Skydiving is a freeing, empowering, even life-changing experience – a true testament to mental and physical stamina! Is there really a better way to support someone than helping them overcome their fears and live their life to the fullest? Let’s dive into why a skydiving voucher is at the top of the list for thrill seeker gifts!
Who Should Get A Skydiving Gift Certificate?
Some say that everyone who is willing and able should skydive at least once in their life! If that’s in line with your thinking, make sure the person you have in mind is eligible to redeem a skydiving gift certificate. All tandem skydivers should meet these criteria:
- Be at least 18 years old. The minimum skydiving age requirement is set by the United States Parachute Association (USPA). If there’s a lucky person in your life who is on the cusp of adulthood – skydiving is the ultimate present! And there’s no maximum age to skydive!
- Weigh no more than 250 lbs while being height-to-weight proportionate. We strive to accommodate everyone to enjoy the freedom of skydiving, while maintaining a culture of safety. This means following the regulations set by the manufacturers of our tandem skydiving gear. If the person wishing to skydive weighs over 200 lbs, please give us a call before confirming a reservation.
- Have a desire to skydive! Encouraging people to be their best selves and try new things is a good thing – positive pressure! But, if you’re not sure that your gift recipient will be as jazzed to get your gift as you’ll be to give it, consider talking with them about jumping before you buy. (Or, go for it and rest assured that our gift certificates can be transferred!)
Three Reasons Skydiving Gifts Are The Best Gifts
This may sound backwards, but going skydiving isn’t just about jumping out of an airplane, although it is tons of fun. Embracing adventure and stepping out of your comfort zone – ya know, that place where growth doesn’t happen – are paramount in the skydiving experience! Here are three reasons why skydiving makes the perfect present for the giver and the receiver.
- It’s Unexpected.
Here’s the scene: you’re gathered around and gifts are flying open. Wrapping paper is getting tossed to the side and envelopes containing generic cards are quickly opened and set down. Finally, your unassuming card gets picked up. From the outside, it looks like any other card, until it’s opened and a golden ticket to adventure slips out. The recipient goes wide-eyed and is flooded with emotions – excitement, disbelief, and perhaps some healthy hesitation. They hit the jackpot and you’re deemed the best gift-giver for years to come!
- It’s EASY!
Looking for last minute gifts? Purchase a skydiving gift certificate, print it out, and pop it in a card. Boom! Or, forward the confirmation email to the recipient! No braving the endlessly crowded aisles at the store or doom scrolling through online shopping sites. Booking a skydive is easy-peasy for you and a top-notch present for them – it’s the best of both worlds.
- It’s Unforgettable.
No one wants to experience the dreaded fake excitement of opening an oh-you-shouldn’t-have gift. We’re cringing just thinking about it! Gifting someone with a skydive not only makes the exchange memorable, but the gift itself is truly unforgettable!
What’s Next?
Ready to purchase a skydiving gift certificate and wondering which package to choose? Let’s break it down.
- At the base level, you’ve got a tandem skydive, which provides the exhilaration of jumping from a plane with an experienced instructor.
- For just a little extra, you can opt for a photo or video package.
- Or you can go all the way and opt for a tandem skydive that includes photos and videos.
Skydiving photos and videos let you see your out-of-this-world accomplishment! Talk about a gift that keeps on giving! Besides, how else can you share your freefalling experience with the world? Plenty of people who continue on their skydiving journey regret not documenting their first jump. If adding a media package isn’t in your gift giving budget, consider sharing the spotlight with another pal and making it a joint present.
