Why a Skydiving Gift Beats a Physical Present

What are the top 10 experience gifts for adults? There’s no single list that will fit everyone, but experience gifts can range from travel and concerts to cooking classes, outdoor adventures … and even skydiving! If you know someone who’s been talking about jumping out of an airplane, you don’t need to brainstorm for long. There’s a clear, awesome option: a tandem skydive.

Physical gifts can be fun, but experiences have a way of sticking with us. Instead of giving someone another item for their home or something to wear, a skydiving gift gives them a story to tell. A skydiving gift also avoids some of the challenges that come with traditional shopping. You don’t have to know someone’s clothing size, favorite color or whether they already own the thing you’re considering. You can simply give them an experience and let them choose when to use it.

What is a good gift for someone who enjoys skydiving? If they’re already an avid skydiver, a gift certificate or straight-up money added to their account at their dropzone can be a great fit!

Who a Skydive Gift Experience Is Perfect For

A tandem skydive can be a particularly memorable choice for people who love trying new things. If you’re looking for experience gift ideas for adults, consider the person who is always planning their next adventure, looking for a new challenge, or adding destinations and experiences to their bucket-list.

A skydive gift experience can work well for:

• Birthday celebrations
• Graduations
• Anniversaries
• Holidays
• Milestone accomplishments
• Bucket-list adventures
• Couples and friends who want to experience something together

Skydiving is also worth considering when looking for adventure gift ideas for someone who seems to have everything. Instead of adding another possession to their collection, give them something they can experience firsthand.

Worried skydiving is only a good gift for an adrenaline junkie? Not true! Avid skydivers are rarely adrenaline fanatics. Yes, seriously! Skydiving is a great option for someone who enjoys high-energy adventures, but it’s also ideal for those looking to get out of their comfort zone and see the world from a totally unique perspective. Yes, the adrenaline is definitely present, but it doesn’t need to overshadow the entire experience.  

What’s Actually Included (So They Know What They’re Getting)

One of the biggest advantages of purchasing a gift certificate directly from Skydive New England is the flexibility. Gift certificates are available in any amount, and they’re delivered electronically, so you can purchase one without waiting for shipping or even buying wrapping paper.

A tandem skydive takes the recipient from the ground to approximately 14,000 feet before they experience the rush of freefall at 120 mph. After freefall, the parachute opens for a peaceful ride back toward the ground, giving them a chance to take in the views and enjoy the experience from a completely different angle.

They can also choose to add a media package to capture the experience, or the “gift giver” can add this beforehand. We offer several options, including professional video, a selfie-style video with an outside perspective, and instructor hand-cam footage.

How much does a skydiving experience cost? It depends on the type of experience and the add-ons you choose. Skydive New England’s current prices include tandem jumps starting at $269 on select weekdays and $299 for a tandem skydive on the weekends. Prices can change, so check the current pricing page before purchasing! 

For the biggest thrill, Skydive New England also offers an 18,000-foot tandem skydive during select months and days. It’s the highest tandem skydive offered in New England and provides additional freefall time!
