Airkix Indoor Skydiving

Airkix Indoor Skydiving. This totally unique experience allows to you experience the sheer exhilaration of skydiving in a specially constructed wind tunnel, the likes of which are usually used to test the aerodynamics of F1 racing cars! After all the necessary training you will step into the airflow and taste the thrill of freefall in a totally safe and controlled environment, and what’s more, it’s suitable for almost anyone from age 5 so even the kids can have a go.

Agenda:
Upon contact with the supplier you will be issued with a report time; it is important that you arrive no later than the report time given. You will have a fun briefing and will receive all necessary instruction. You will learn and practice freefall and body flying techniques. You will get kitted up in flight suit, specialist headgear, goggles, earplugs, knee and elbow pads, before entering the tunnel with your instructor for the first of two one minute ‘flights’. You will receive a souvenir DVD recording of your experience.

Tandem Skydive

Tandem Skydive. The ultimate adrenalin experience! After a twenty five minute nail biting plane ride to reach the required altitude, the roar of the engines softens and you realise your time has come, it ’s now or never as you are over the drop zone. What follows is up to 7,000ft of freefall at speeds of around 120mph strapped securely to a qualified instructor. At 5000ft the instructor deploys the parachute and you float gently into the landing zone.

Location:
Cumbria (North), Cambridgeshire, Oxfordshire, Norfolk (South East), Northamptonshire, Nottinghamshire (Midlands), Fife (Scotland), Devon, Wiltshire (South West)

Agenda:
Following a short pre-jump briefing you will be provided with a skydivers jump suit to go over your clothes (you should wear comfortable clothing such as a track suit and trainers). Then after fitting a tandem parachute harness (and appropriate headgear and goggles) the jump plane will take 20-25 minutes to reach the required altitude – then it ’s out in to the blue!
