The hardest part about BASE jumping, whether it be Tandem BASE jumps (Jumps with 2 people), or sport BASE jumps (Jumps done solo)— usually the jumping part is not the hard part. Jumping off things tends to be a split second decision for all sorts of different reasons. The landing is the hard part. It is the landing safely that actually becomes a complicated task to repeat over and over. Out of 4000+ BASE jumps that I have done— miraculously— I have had all safe landings besides some bumps, bruises, and acts of god that have led to my safety. Below is an incredible edit of the landings of Creatrix. Some are better than others, but they are all safe.

Tandem BASE from CANADIAN CRANE! (2022 Jackalope Festival @ Olympic stadium)

BOOK NOW~ 1.415.370.4515 || TANDEM BASE JUMPS 24/7/365 || CANYONS TOURS

When you get an invite to somewhere as unique as it is special — you kind of have to say yes. It was amazing to have a handful of people reach out to BASE jump Moab to be the trusted entity to Tandem BASE jump for the Montreal base Festival, Jackalope. The entire festival is surrounding extreme sports energy and it was just amazing to have the option to Tandem BASE jump there. We couldn't say no. OFF to Canada!

Tandem BASE jump off 330’ Crane in Canada at the Jackalope Festival at Olympic Stadium with BASE Jump Moab.

BASE JUMP MOAB went to Canada to Tandem BASE jump people off their Crane for the Jackalope festival. We showed up with three tandem base rigs, and instead of jumping Tombstone, Meris Gash, Sweet Spot, Four Horsemen, or Parriott Mesa; we were jumping a wildly unique object… a swinging metal deck suspended 330’ in the air over a concrete landing area. Every single factor was intense and it was amazing to be presented with a challenge that was both exciting as well as challenging. We did 16 jumps over the course of 2 days, all packed and jumped by yours truly. I also let Dante Warlaw do a tandem jump packed as well by himself. He is seen taking a delay right in front of me and my passenger in this video above. Tandem BASE jumping is going to be seen more and more world wide, and events done perfectly and professionally like this— are the key to its success. It was so amazing to be able to share this experience with all my passengers, but it was just as satisfying for me personally. Check out the video above for a good example of how all the jumps at this event went.

Well before BASE Jump Moab was formed, the goal was to make BASE jumping available to as many people as possible. It usually takes an incredible amount of training and intentional dedication to start BASE jumping— but, our question was… What if there was another option? What if you could experience BASE jumping without training, expertise, or any previous experience with flight. We wanted Tandem BASE jumping with BASE Jump Moab to be that option for people of all ages, sizes, skill levels, and walks of life!

Lynn Lewis (age 73) Meri’s Gash, Utah.

Up until the other day the oldest people we have ever taken for Tandem BASE jumps, with BASE Jump Moab, were my own parents. My Mom and Dad came out to see my house, support my business, and yes; complete a Tandem BASE Jump, each, with their son. My Mom and Dad, 73/74, both did absolutely wonderful jobs training and being ready for the jumps~ It was very thrilling for them and I think they both had the idea of backing down still in their heads! But, they made the effort to suspend their disbelief and strap in for the ride of a lifetime! It made the Tandem BASE experience for them that much better because they were so impressed to be able to complete a task they previously thought was impossible. Sharing those moments with my parents I will remember forever— from seeing my Mom filled with pure joy and uncontrollable laughing, to my Dad looking and me and saying “That’s a pretty incredible feeling, drew. I’m proud of you.” Ever since, they too have remember that day— and proudly show off their videos around the world as they travel together.

79 year old Cody, swooping into the landing area safely to set the world record for Oldest Tandem Passenger jumped from the lowest cliff.

200 Tandem BASE jumps, 3 countries, and 2 years later… I got a phone call late one afternoon with a man on the other side of the line wanting to go Tandem BASE jump right then!

“Hello, this is BASE Jump Moab, Andy speaking… How can I help you?”

“Hi, I just wanted to know more about the BASE jumping and if I can go right now?”

“Right now, right now?” I responded, asking back “are you in town?'“

“I am in town, I’m ready to go, and I found you on Google Maps… I am down the street. Can we jump right now? Or is that not possible?”

I opened up a few weather apps on my phone to check the winds and calculate the best place to take him to jump— and when I confirmed the weather was good, I responded. “Come on over, let’s go try to make a Tandem BASE Jump.”

When I met Cody— I hadn’t expected him to be 79… When I parked at the parking lot, got out of my car, and saw him for the first time— he saw the look on my face and said “You weren’t expecting an old guy, huh?” I chuckled.

He assured me that he was fit, ready, and his stoke was felt from a mile away— so I can’t really say I nervous about his age at all. To me he just genuinely enjoyed life and knew he would love this experience. Some people just know, they feel the vibe, and when their energy shows up smiling and stoked— I can’t help but vibe with them. Cody’s love for life and his enjoyment of adventure made me smile all day. We safely jumped and the next day I took him out on the river to experience white water rapids in his boat for the first time. Somewhere between the hilarious laughter following the BASE jump and the whooping and hollering through the wave trains of the Colorado river…. I thought, “Wow, I hope I’m this bad ass at 79. In fact, I just hope I make it to 79” Thanks for showing me that life never has to get dull Roger, Lynn, and Cody. You’re an inspiration to us all.

Quick little mood shot of the oldest tandem passenger in the History of BASE jump Moab. (Cody Age: 79)

Welcome to B.A.S.E. Jump Moab B.A.S.E. LOG Book or BLOG for short.

BOOK NOW~ 1.415.370.4515 || TANDEM BASE JUMPS 24/7/365 || CANYONS

Welcome to the Blog, BASE Jump Moab’s online collection of adventures and anecdotes. Since our creation in 2018, I have slowly, but surely, continued progression on all fronts of BASE Jump Moab— just not a blog. I started with many directions that I saw as possible ways to help the community have fun and experience BASE jumping in unique ways. Tandem BASE jumps (1 person flying, 1 passenger), to Multiway Tandem BASE jumps(multiple tandems jumping/flying at once), to ADVENTURE TANDEMS (for people who have exploration and access skills, just maybe not specifically BASE jumping), to BASE jump demos, to BASE jump events, to BASE jumping lessons, to Advanced Courses, to pack jobs, gear sales, t-shirts, Offsite BASE Practice from planes, including tower landings, Tour Guiding canyons, climbing, hiking, rappelling, rope swings, as well as providing media creation, commercial filming, reality tv, product launches—and I wanted to do it all. In the end, trying to do everything may have been too much.

Collecting images for B.L.M. Proposals - Tandem BASE jump off of Castleton Tower, Castle Valley, Utah. (DJI Mavic ProPlat- Sylvan Slacks)

As I started the company I tested the waters and proposed and offered many different products/ services, to many different people, of many different skill sets, and many backgrounds. I asked BLM for permission to jump in over 200 locations… Which is a process that I quickly learned “just doesn’t work like that.” Simply speaking it wasn’t running optimally because we were offering too much, to too many people, and many of the big plans were becoming over complicated or worse just plain getting denied. I didn’t have a clear direction and it was as distracting and it was ineffective and worse it was confusing to our user basis online. I was becoming overwhelmed and knew I had to evolve. Here is a clip of a BASEr mission below. I thought having parachuting systems you can legally skydive that can also be used as base rigs would be rad. It was! We did a handful of tower landing, repack, tower BASE jump missions... But, the BASEr mission failed to catch on to a viable market, subsequently becoming one of the first adventures to be “sifted” from focus (commercially abandoned in early 2020.) Though, legend has it that BASEr missions still can happen.

By the end of 2020 I decided to eliminate the additional focuses of BASE Jump Moab immediately and indefinitely. I had to stop current progression of almost everything, but Tandems and Tandem related investment. I had to focus the marketing, the management, and the momentum. It was hard and felt like failure at first because I truly liked the big dreams and grandiose expectations. I wanted to keep overworking until it magically all fell into place. I just couldn’t keep doing it—so I committed to the revamp. It ended up being the best idea ever to sift the company down to one thing, providing amazing Tandem BASE jumping experiences for customers of all ages, sizes, and walks of life. That would be my main focus— it already was— but, now it would be unimpeded. Here is an example of another semi-sifted idea abandoned as a viable commercial market, Space Net Tandems. It never did get commercially cleared to be an all year activity— but, we did successfully get to launch a bunch of friends out of the net while it was up. We can still rig the net and BASE jump out of it, but the past locations of the net are now being saved for the Big Horn Sheep, Golden Eagles, and native plants. There are other areas though and special permits for recreational topics just like this… So maybe once a year it could still be a thing… I don’t know for sure, but I will never stop at least dreaming big~

To do this I brought on Sylvan Christensen, a good friend, as well as a talented guide and knowledgeable Moab adventurer. He’d worked many years commercially guiding before DM, and together both enjoy pushing adventure in similar directions. Together we split BASE Jump Moab, into a Tandem BASE company, and created a sister company DBA, that would organize climbing, rappelling, canyons, and guiding; Discovering Moab. “You can always keep Discovering Moab!” In splitting the companies, I also split my marketing. I could market BJM as just that, BJM. Clean, clear cut, compelling. Then we could market Discovering Moab, exactly for what it does, adventure tours. Splitting the time and focus investment this way highlighted a single direction for both of our action plans, but also clarified our online storefronts. I could build and maintain BJM more effectively than ever, while he could take the DM baton and run with it. Both companies have run more effectively since. You might have seen one of our ads in and around Moab!

In total, it took more than 18 months to completely split, distill, and revamp BASE jump Moab’s entire business model and over a year to build and prepare for Discovering Moab’s pursuit to run independently. Now in 2022, we both have our first entire year split. I also freed myself up enough now to continue to do personal consulting for online media, TV, Movies, performance, and commercial filming— but I do it under my personal business entity. Doing this allowed BASE jump Moab, Discovering Moab, and Sketchy Andy Lewis to run and act as independent units since mid 2021. It’s just beginning it seems and it’s been more fun than ever. The 2022 season has started — and I can’t wait to get out! Speaking of commercial films, here are two we worked on recently. A Mr.Beast highline. And a Jeep Commercial.
