Indoor Skydiving Experiences

Indoor Skydiving Experiences

These incredible experiences give you the amazing thrill of skydiving, but minus the scary jumping out of a plane bit! A great day out for everyone involved, why not try something a bit different?! Step into the wind tunnel and see just how good you are!

Experience the exhilarating feeling of being up in the air without the perils of skydiving. The advantage of this controlled environment, as opposed to an actual jump, is that it’s suitable for almost anyone aged five and over, meaning even kids can take part. There’s no fear factor to this, just fun and plenty of it!

First off you will have to take part in the necessary training. While it is a safe and controlled environment, you still need to receive an initial briefing and instructions. Before you go into the chamber for the free-fall you will learn and practise the body flying techniques for suspending yourself in the air efficiently and being able to move around.

After this you’ll be kitted up in flight suit, headgear and goggles and then head off to the specially designed vertical wind tunnel, similar to those used in aerodynamic testing. You’ll be blasted up on wind power of up to 120 mph to around four metres in height and be suspended in the airflow. These breathtaking sessions will leave you wanting more and we can guarantee you will come away grinning and planning your next visit.

Rating 5 out of 55 out of 5 "The most fun we've ever had in 2 minutes!"

ExperienceMad went to the Airkix indoor skydiving centre in Milton Keynes and the full account of our indoor skydiving exerience is on our blog. It's a must read, even if we say so ourselves!

In summary, we loved it! We wondered how much fun two minutes in a wind tunnel could really be and now we know. Loads! We arrived at the Xscape centre in Milton Keynes and made our way to Airkix registration. After a briefing video and demonstration by our instructor (chin up, hips forward and relax) we then donned our jump suits, goggles and headgear ready for our flights. A photo session was hastily arranged to capture us in our indoor skydiving regalia and then it was up to the wind tunnel. We each took it in turns to enter the tunnel where instructor Ted used a series of hand signals to guide us (chin up, straighten legs). The tips soon began to pay off and we were flying! The wait for our next flight gave us the chance to catch our breath and watch our co-flyers. There is the option of a ride to the top of the tunnel with Ted which costs a bit extra but we went for it and loved it. After some more practise at controlled freefalling Ted grabbed us and up we went to the top of the tunnel, then down, then up and down once more. We were hooked. When we were invited to have another go for another additional charge we leapt at the chance! The finale was an amazing demonstration by Ted. We all left claiming we could do that if we had another go! After another photo session, we collected our DVD's and ended the day in the bar reliving every second of our bodyflying experiences. We will be back!
