Discover Indoor Skydiving

Indoor skydiving is a unique experience offering you the chance to understand what it is really like to jump out of a plane and free fall. The mightily impressive air tunnel was more commonly used to test the aerodynamics for F1 cars but now has the power and ability to kept you afloat in winds reaching 120mph. During your 2 minutes of flight you will get the same freefall time of 3 actual skydives, and expert tuition from the professional instructors. After you have mastered a few techniques with the instructor's help you can really appreciate the fun involved with freefall and begin to maneuver yourself around the tunnel. During this great 2 minute experience you will have 'fallen' the equivalent of 2 miles!

Agenda

Aim to arrive 60 minutes before your experience is due to start. Once you have arrived and been welcomed to the centre your day will begin with a thorough safety briefing covering the techniques and safety aspects of Indoor Skydiving. Once you have learnt to straighten and bend your legs accordingly you can really experience the force of the air tunnel! Step into winds of 120mph with your instructor's guidance and begin your skydiving experience. You will have two flights in the air tunnel lasting one minute each, which is the equivalent 3 actual skydives. Your day will then be complete with the presentation of a personalised flight certificate and the DVD (included in price) of your flight.
