5 Reasons Why a Skydiving Gift is Perfect for Christmas

If you haven’t thought about giving your loved ones a skydiving gift for Christmas, well, you’re about to find out what you’ve been missing out on. Skydiving is THE perfect present, if we may say so.

And since we exist solely to help you out this Christmas (well, that and to skydive, obviously), we have put together the following list of five reasons you should buy a skydiving gift certificate this Christmas. 

1. You’ll immediately stake your claim as the best gift-giver EVER

If you haven’t earned this title before, this is your year to claim it with a skydiving gift certificate under the tree. And if you have – well, then this offering will definitely help you defend your title.

At WSC, we endeavor to create an environment that is warm, welcoming and safety-focused. We welcome jumpers of all experience levels – from first-time skydivers to experienced fun jumpers. And so speaking of experienced fun jumpers … we have it on good authority that they looooove a skydiving gift certificate because it can be used to cover the cost of their solo jumps.

So really, you can’t go wrong. But if you need a few more reasons, keep reading.

2. It’s better than socks, underwear, Or fruitcake

Ok let’s face it: socks, underwear and fruitcake are pretty lame gifts, right? So it’s not hard to come up with something better than these.

That being said – what could top skydiving? We’ll give you a second to think about it. Ok, time’s up. We couldn’t come up with anything either. Skydiving is hands down better than anything else you could give this Christmas.

3. It’s a gift for anyone 18 – 100 yrs old!

At the Wisconsin Skydiving Center, we specialize in introducing new jumpers of all ages to the sky in the most caring, attentive, and thorough manner.

The minimum age limit for any tandem skydive is 18 years of age – but you literally can’t be too old to do your first jump. We’ve had the joy and privilege of jumping with Anna Mae Milnar every year since her 68th birthday – so don’t be afraid to gift a skydive to your mom, dad, uncle, or grandparents! They’ll be in the best hands with us.

4. Most people have always wanted to skydive 

You’d probably never guess this – but when asked, most people will say they’ve always wanted to skydive. They’ve just never gotten up the nerve, or had anyone to do it with. Those who did take the leap all say they wished they’d done it sooner. 

The great thing about a skydiving gift certificate is they don’t expire. And you can schedule your skydive as far in advance as you wish. We can also usually accommodate a last minute jump if someone gets up the nerve and just wants to make it happen right away. Worst case scenario, our gift certificates are refundable within 30 days of purchase. But we are pretty confident you won’t need that option…

5. It’s a gift they will never forget

Only 1% of the US population has been skydiving (hard to believe, we know). So not only is a skydive a gift your loved ones won’t forget – they’ll be telling people about it for years to come. And every time, the story will start with “_____ (insert your name here) got me a skydiving gift certificate for Christmas!”

Still not convinced after reading our sturdy reasons to give a skydiving gift this Christmas? Sounds like you’re just going to have to buy a gift certificate for you AND that family member so you can experience it for yourself.

See you at the dropzone!
