About MyDive retreats
Experienced, currently licensed skydivers. Every MyDive retreat requires a current USPA B licence or higher, current USPA membership, a reserve in date, and that you are current on jumps. These are not tandem or first-jump experiences.
Yes. We don't rent skydiving gear — at a B licence minimum, you should have your own rig. The one exception is the Lake Isabella speedflying course, where speedflying gear is provided for jumpers new to it.
Yes, once you are at 200 jumps.
Yes. Wingsuits are encouraged.
Every location is evaluated before it becomes a retreat, and that is a lot more than putting an aircraft over a pin on a map. We work through the landing area, airspace, aircraft performance, access, lodging, ground logistics and weather, along with any landowner coordination or permissions the site needs. A retreat only gets built, and only opens for booking, once those pieces work together.
For the things that matter to an off-dropzone operation: usable space, surface, obstacles, outs, elevation, surrounding terrain, and how local wind affects the approach. The goal is to understand the landing environment before anyone is under canopy over it.
Group size is limited around the aircraft, lodging, location and logistics of each retreat. Smaller groups keep the operation cleaner and give everyone more time together, on the ground and in the air.
There is no per-jump charge and no fixed number. Jumps are unlimited during scheduled MyDive operations. How many you actually get depends on weather, daylight, aircraft operations and conditions on the day.
It varies by site, but we aim for 12,000 feet AGL. These landing areas sit high, so that can be roughly 17,000 feet MSL.
It varies by trip and is listed in full on each retreat page. Depending on the retreat, your package may include lodging, meals, unlimited skydives during scheduled operations, aircraft support, instruction or other trip-specific logistics.
Travel to the retreat is on you. Where to be and when is covered on the retreat page and again in the pre-trip information packet.
No personal insurance is required to join a retreat.
The Red Rocket — a Cessna TU206G, the turbocharged version of the 206, set up for skydiving with a roll-up jump door. It carries five jumpers plus the pilot, and the turbo is what lets it climb out of high country.
Ten to fifteen jumpers.
Through our booking system, where you choose your trip and pay the deposit. Each retreat shows its own pricing, deposit and payment schedule before you commit.
Weather is a real part of destination skydiving. Each retreat publishes its own terms, and some use delayed final-payment dates or weather confirmation windows so you are not committing the full balance too early.
Transfer and cancellation terms vary by retreat. Each trip publishes its own deposit, payment, cancellation and transfer policy before you book.
