Five Star Gift Ideas

If your son is passionate about skydiving and parachute jumping, there are plenty of gift ideas that can enhance his love for these thrilling activities. Here are a few options to consider:

1. Tandem Skydiving Experience: Treat your son to an unforgettable skydiving adventure by arranging a tandem jump with a professional instructor. This will allow him to experience the thrill of freefalling while being securely attached to an experienced skydiver. It's a fantastic way for him to feel the rush of adrenaline and create lifelong memories.

2. Indoor Skydiving Session: If your son enjoys the sensation of flying without the altitude, consider gifting him an indoor skydiving session. Indoor skydiving simulators create a controlled wind tunnel environment where he can experience the feeling of freefalling and maneuvering his body in mid-air. It's a safer alternative and a great way for him to practice skydiving skills.

3. GoPro Camera and Accessories: Skydiving and parachute jumping provide breathtaking views and incredible moments. Help your son capture these memories by giving him a GoPro camera, a popular choice among adrenaline junkies. Make sure to include accessories like a helmet mount or chest harness so he can record hands-free while enjoying the adrenaline rush.

4. Skydiving Gear: If your son is an avid skydiver, consider upgrading his gear or purchasing an accessory that enhances his safety and comfort. Options may include a new helmet, goggles, altimeter, or a parachute packing tool. Research what gear he currently has, and consult with professionals at a skydiving gear shop to make the best selection.

5. Parachute Jumping Course: If your son is serious about pursuing parachute jumping as a long-term hobby or even a career, consider enrolling him in a parachute jumping course. These courses provide comprehensive training on safety protocols, canopy control, and jump techniques. It's an investment in his passion that can help him refine his skills and further his involvement in the sport.

6. Skydiving Merchandise: To show support for his love of skydiving, you might consider gifting him merchandise from his favorite skydiving brands or drop zones. These could include t-shirts, hoodies, hats, or even custom jump suits. Not only would he appreciate these items, but they would also serve as a reminder of his favorite activity when he's not in the air.

7. Books and Magazines: Help your son expand his knowledge of skydiving and parachute jumping by gifting him books or magazine subscriptions related to the sport. There are plenty of options available, from instructional guides to captivating stories of experienced jumpers, which could inspire him and keep his passion alive.

Remember, the most meaningful gifts are often the ones that align with your son's interests and truly showcase your understanding and support of his passion for skydiving and parachute jumping.

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