<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nSkydiving Etiquette<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nThere are so many ways that you can show appreciation to your tandem instructor for keeping you safe and providing a fun experience. First and foremost, the easiest way to say thanks is to show up for your skydive prepared<\/a>. Being prepared means arriving at the dropzone for the time that you scheduled; keeping yourself adequately fed and hydrated; getting a good night\u2019s sleep the night prior; wearing the correct skydiving attire, like comfortable clothes and sneakers; showing up sober and ready for the experience; and lastly, being open to having a great time. By being bright eyed and bushy tailed and ready to listen and learn, you are helping to make the whole experience smoother, safer, and a lot more enjoyable for both you and for your instructor.<\/p>\n\n\n\nAlways Appreciated, Never Expected<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n![\"Skydiving](\"https:\/\/longislandskydiving.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/jamie-marden.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nMany people wonder if they should also give their instructor a tip after landing from their jump. Tipping is a fairly common practice in tandem skydiving. However, instructors are paid for the jumps they make, so they do not rely solely on tips for compensation. Your instructor would surely appreciate a monetary tip, but they don\u2019t expect it and it is definitely not required. If you had a fantastic time and you want to give your instructor a little bonus for helping to make your experience unforgettable, then a tip is a kind gesture for which they would certainly be grateful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How Much Should I Tip My Skydiving Instructor?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nTips are totally optional, so it is completely up to you in terms of how much is right. If you want to give your instructor a cash tip after your skydive because they were hilarious or super chill and also made you feel safe and empowered at the same time, then gratuity amounts typically range from $20 to 20% of the cost of your jump. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
