Skydive Evolution, Amery

When people say "the sky's the limit," they don't usually mean it as literally as Skydive Evolution does. The instructors helm beginner-friendly skydiving excursions, ushering guests into a new world that starts 2 miles above the Earth's surface. But don't worry, they'll take the plunge with you on tandem jumps.

They help newbies get their sky legs during mini-skydiving experiences with a lower exit altitude, meaning freefall times are 15–20 seconds shorter than those of the standard tandem experience. For those who are more serious about the high-flying sport, they offer a certification program that leads folks to embark on a solo flight. During the Tandem Progression Program, the instructors join freefallers for standard tandem jumps—in which they reach speeds of 120 mph—while also teaching them altitude awareness, correct body positioning, and emergency procedures.
