WHAT OUR JUMPERS SAY

“This place is awesome, and continues to see improvements under the new ownership! As a sport jumper, I appreciate the safety culture and passion for the sport that the whole crew at Skydown upholds. I’ve brought quite a few friends out here to make their first tandem skydives, and their smiles have said it all. The staff makes everyone feel welcome and they all put a lot of love and effort into what they do!”

“I have always been very scared of heights, but knew that skydiving was inevitable for me to try one day. I am so glad that I gave my first try with Skydive Skydown and I ended up having more fun than fear, because their knowledge and expertise made me feel comfortable enough to focus more on the fun. Everyone working and participating that day made me feel instantly part of the community and welcomed any curiosity I had.”

“They were great. I went with a group of people so we were there for a while but we had a great time "tailgateing" at the landing zone watching for our group. The instructor was awesome and I felt very safe the whole time. Would recommend”

RECENT IN THE BLOG

A core group of Treasure Valley skydivers came together to clean, restore, and re-envision what a drop zone could and should be, laying the foundation for Skydown v2 and the future of skydiving in Idaho.
In 2016, Skydive Skydown was tapped by The Tonight Show to fly Hashtag the Panda into the Farmstead’s Jimmy Fallon corn maze. A nationally televised demo, a perfect landing, and one of the coolest moments in Idaho skydiving history.
Long before today’s momentum, Skydown was the beating heart of Idaho skydiving—a place built by legends, fueled by passion, and carried by a community that refused to let the sport fade. This is the story of the dropzone that came before us.
