For many, choosing Christmas gifts for their loved ones is a real challenge . When in doubt, we often turn to gift cards, but for many of us, these have a reputation for not being original enough. Let’s face it, a gift card for skydiving is in itself an excellent way to surprise a loved one , but why not make the moment of unwrapping the gift just as amazing!
That’s why Parachute Voltige has prepared a little guide of ideas for giving an original gift card ! Our goal is to help you find a unique way to give this gift! Whether it’s for a family member, a friend, your loved one, or to celebrate a special occasion, here are our top picks to make this Christmas the most memorable of all!
1- The helium-filled balloon
Ah, the Christmas holidays ! What better way to fill up on magic? Exchanging gifts is a moment everyone looks forward to, especially this year, as families can finally celebrate together. Make heads turn (or rather, “make heads look up”) and delight the little ones with this superb idea: attach your Voltige gift card for a parachute jump to a helium balloon. It will release and float away when a big, beautiful box is opened. For a “WOW” effect, choose a balloon shaped like an airplane, a cloud, or simply a heart. You can also choose a balloon shaped like a Christmas tree or Santa Claus ! Line the inside of the box with tissue paper and pretty (battery-operated) lights. Above all, get your cameras ready and prepare to capture the reactions of your loved ones! Don’t hesitate to send us your videos! It is our greatest joy to know that some will dream of summer knowing that their parachute jump is approaching !
2- The “Bucket List”
This is the perfect idea if you’re giving a tandem skydive to someone who’s been dreaming about it for a long time! To make this gift wrapping, all you need is a large sheet of paper folded in thirds and a piece of ribbon, string, or a strip of paper! You could even print the image above. First, write down a few dreams and goals of the gift card recipient, including skydiving ! Then, glue the ribbon to the back of the gift card, and slip it inside the folded sheet of paper, leaving the ribbon hanging down at the bottom. Why not make them wait a little longer by asking them to guess what you’re giving them for Christmas ?! Then, they simply pull the tab to discover that they’ll be taking the plunge with Parachute Voltige !
3- Treasure hunt and riddles, “parachute” style
Christmas parties are often a chance to play games and have a good laugh! A treasure hunt is perfect for someone who has no idea you’re giving them a skydive as a Christmas present ! It’s a great opportunity to get them thinking, clue by clue. Your task will be to reveal, bit by bit, where the clues you’ve written on slips of paper are hidden. You’ll find a few ideas below, but feel free to add your own and send them to us so we can add them to this list!
- Santa Claus says: “Up, up, up!”

If you ‘re giving one of our Christmas gift cards to your sweetheart, why not send them off on the wrong foot by creating this subjective, double-edged greeting card?! Simply write ” For Christmas, I thought we could take to the skies !” with a wink across the front and slip the skydiving gift card inside! Guaranteed to get a reaction every time!
