Get the Thrill of Skydiving without Leaving the Ground
Skydiving has to be one of the most exhilarating and intense experiences anyone can have, but few people ever get round to doing the training, going up in a plane and enjoying it for themselves. Now, there is an easy way to experience all the thrills in the company of your friends without leaving the ground. Indoor skydiving is the very latest activity and everyone who tries it gets hooked.
Indoor skydiving, which is also known as bodyflying, is safe, fun and easy. Imagine a wind tunnel turned upright, blowing a column of rapidly moving air upwards. All you have to do is gently lean into the flow of air and all of a sudden you are flying.
While it might be new to the UK, indoor skydiving has been around for many years. In the early 1980s vertical wind tunnels were opened in Tennessee and Las Vegas, and in 1998 the first SkyVenture tunnel opened in Orlando, Florida. Over the years, thousands of people have experienced the incredible sensation of bodyflying and SkyVenture has been building more tunnels around the world.
Now, the UK has two vertical air tunnels, in Milton Keynes and Manchester, run by Airkix, and the experience of indoor skydiving is proving as popular here as it has in the US.
These tunnels – the first in the UK – have a simple and safe design, circulating air into a flight chamber. All you have to do is stand in the chamber and lean into the column of air and you will be lifted into a horizontal flying position. With help from an instructor you can quickly learn the basic moves, which let you ride up and down in the column of air, move forwards, backwards and sideways, and perform tricks that will put a smile on your face and impress your friends, who can all watch you from close by.
With twice the flight time of the typical skydive from a plane, these wind tunnels give you the chance to pull of some incredibly fancy moves, so you will feel like a professional skydiver in no time.
Whether you are a first time flyer or a pro, whether you want to fly on your own or in a group, indoor skydiving is the perfect way to enjoy the thrilling experience that everyone is raving about. A voucher for this incredible experience is the perfect gift, and if you are looking for an activity for a business outing or a team-building exercise, what better choice than something that will put a smile on everyone’s face and is guaranteed to get everyone to let their hair down?
Indoor skydiving is really taking off, even for school outings and, of course, for parties, and it makes for the perfect birthday bash. What’s more, after your flight you can relive the experience with a set of digital photos or even a DVD of your flight. You’re sure to want to come back for more, but you can experience it over again by watching your flight on TV. Bodyflying is catching on quick, so why not be one of the first to try this exciting new experience?
