2023 Tracking Courses Now Open: Price Reduced
Enrollment for the Summer 2023 Tracking Courses is now open.

The Introductory Course in Italy will be held June 5-9, 2023.
The Intermediate Course in Switzerland will be held June 12-16, 2023.

The total course cost will be $1195 per course.

Successful completion of the Introductory course is a mandatory prerequisite for the Intermediate course. You can schedule both courses back to back, but if your performance on the Introductory course is not sufficient to make the jumps in Switzerland, you will not be allowed on the Intermediate course and NO REFUNDS will be given.

Based on feedback from previous years, we have changed the format this year and reduced the price.

Please Read Before Making a Deposit:

1. Lodging and transportation within Europe are not included in the price. Students are responsible for their own transportation and lodging. This includes shuttle fees and train passes.

2. Landing cards and insurance are not included in the course price. Students will be required to have landing cards at all sites that require them. There is no requirement for insurance, but Snake River BASE strongly recommends getting travel and rescue insurance if your place of residence allows you to do so.

3. All jumps will be done on two piece tracking suits. No wing suits or one piece tracking suits will be used in these courses. Snake River BASE strongly recommends a minimum of 20 skydives in your chosen suit prior to the course. If you need guidance on how to practice in the skydiving environment, please contact us.

4. A minimum of 200 skydives is required.

THE ARIZONA EXPERIENCE FOR 2023!

We've had a lot of people ask when we will hold our next Arizona Experience, and we've finally settled on the dates for winter 2023. If you are one of the people who have been asking, we will try to contact you directly as well, but if we miss you, here's your notice.

We will never hold an Arizona Experience during the Summer months, because Arizona is HOT during the summer. But during the winter, it's North America's legal BASE playground.

Object Avoidance is a mandatory pre-requisite for this trip, but if you haven't taken Avoidance, it is possible to add one to the schedule in January. If you'd like to do that so you can come to Arizona, you'll want to contact us as soon as possible so we can get that on the schedule.

This will be an unforgettable trip, and a perfect introduction to jumping in Arizona.

2022 Tracking Courses Are Open ❗️❗️

Enrollment for the Summer 2022 Tracking Courses is now open.

The Introductory Course in Italy will be held July 11-15, 2022.

The Intermediate Course in Switzerland will be held July 18-22, 2022.

The total course cost will be $1995 per course.

Successful completion of the Introductory course is a mandatory prerequisite for the Intermediate course.

You can schedule both courses back to back, but if your performance on the Introductory course is not sufficient to make the jumps in Switzerland, you will not be allowed on the Intermediate course and NO REFUNDS will be given.

Because of increased costs of airfare, and the possibility of Covid (or World War III) related cancellations, the process will be a little different than past years.

Please Read Before Making a Deposit:

1). You make a $1000 deposit to hold your spot.

2). On May 1, we make a decision on whether the course will go or not (based on travel restrictions in Italy and Switzerland, where the tracking courses are held). Be aware that if Switzerland won’t allow us to bring the Intermediate course, it’s likely we will cancel the Introductory course in Italy as well, because we need to be able to spread the airfare costs for the instructors over both courses.

3). If we cancel the courses on May 1, then you receive a full refund of your deposit. NO REFUNDS will be given for any other reason, because we will need to book rooms and schedule airfare, and those costs will not be refunded to us.

4). If we do confirm that the courses will happen, then the balance of the course fee ($995) is due by May 15. Failure to pay the balance will result in a cancellation of your enrollment, and your deposit will not be refunded.

The 29 March - 1 April Fundamentals of BASE course has been sold out, but we've just had a space open up. Sign up now because it'll go fast.

BASE progression doesn’t look the same for everyone. ⚖️

The average number of skydives to make before BASE jumping is about 200. How many skydives did you have before you started BASE jumping?
