Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is a fan of skydiving, there are several gift options you can consider to provide him with a meaningful and memorable experience. Here are a few ideas:

1. Tandem Skydiving: One of the best gifts for a skydiving enthusiast is the opportunity to experience it firsthand. Consider booking a tandem skydiving session for him at a reputable skydiving center. This will allow him to enjoy the thrill of freefalling while safely attached to an experienced instructor.

2. Indoor Skydiving: If your son hasn't had the chance to try indoor skydiving yet, this could be a great gift idea. Indoor skydiving facilities use vertical wind tunnels to create the sensation of freefalling without jumping out of a plane. It's a safe and controlled environment, perfect for beginners and seasoned skydivers alike.

3. Skydiving Lessons: If your son is truly passionate about skydiving, gifting him a series of skydiving lessons can be an excellent way for him to take his skills to the next level. Many skydiving centers offer comprehensive training programs that cover everything from safety protocols to advanced aerial techniques.

4. GoPro Camera or Action Cam: Help your son capture his skydiving adventures by gifting him a high-quality action camera like a GoPro. These cameras are designed to withstand extreme conditions and can be mounted on helmets or other equipment. They'll enable him to record and relive his jumps while also sharing them with family and friends.

5. Skydiving Gear and Accessories: If your son is a regular skydiver, he might appreciate some new gear or accessories. Consider purchasing items such as a skydiving jumpsuit, a helmet, goggles, altimeter, or a gear bag. You can also check if he needs any replacements or upgrades for his existing equipment.

6. Skydiving Books and DVDs: For those times when your son is grounded, he might enjoy reading books or watching documentaries about skydiving. Look for titles that share thrilling stories, provide insights into the sport, or dive into the history and culture of skydiving.

7. Skydiving Merchandise: Show your support for your son's passion by gifting him skydiving-themed merchandise like t-shirts, hoodies, hats, or stickers. You can find a wide range of designs and styles that represent his love for the sport.

Remember to consider any safety concerns and consult with professionals before making any skydiving-related purchases or bookings. While skydiving is an exhilarating sport, safety should always be a top priority.

Or you can get him a star map with an important date you share.

Madeline Moran Weiler says about Under Lucky Stars star maps:

“The map was absolutely beautiful! My grandson was thrilled with it (it was a Christmas gift) and has already asked me if I would consider getting another one for him as a graduation gift in a couple of years.”
