Before you book

Do I need BASE jumping experience or can a complete beginner do this trip?

No experience required. It’s a tandem jump with a cliffside safety briefing and pre-jump class; you must be physically able to hike to the edge and handle landing.

Is the price worth it compared to renting gear myself?

The price includes gear, instruction, and safety briefing and access to optional video add-ons; self-provisioned gear and training would cost more risk and hassle.

What if I need to cancel due to weather—do I get a refund?

A deposit is fully refundable if you reschedule or cancel; weather-related delays can be accommodated with a new date.

Can my 8-year-old keep up on the jump tour?

No. Minimum age is 18.

Can I do a second jump the same day?

Yes, weather permitting. Second jump on the same day is $350.
