BASE Jumping
Twin Falls First BASE Jump Course
Your first BASE jump is only the beginning. Our First BASE jump Course is designed to give you a strong foundation in BASE – not just the skills to make your first jump, but the knowledge and decision-making needed to continue progressing responsibly.
BASE stands for Buildings, Antennas, Spans (bridges), and Earth (cliffs) — the four types of fixed objects we jump from. Unlike skydiving, BASE jumping introduces you to lower altitudes, subterminal jumps, complex environments, and variable weather conditions. Because of this, the stakes are higher, the margin for error is smaller, and your preparation must be rock solid.
