The wind tunnel is a recirculating system, powered by four electric fans that produce 1200 horse power. Windspeeds in the tunnel can reach 180 mph! It's used for both first time flyer experiences, as well as to train advanced skydivers who want to learn more about flying their bodies.
The tunnel can improve anyone's skills exponentially faster than learning the same things in the sky due to the extended free fall time and expert coaching available. One of the most unique things about the tunnel is the fact that participation isn't weather dependent! You always can fly when you want to! And the fun that's had is off the charts!
The tunnel may not be as majestic, pure or grand as most places I've enjoyed adventures at but you always get to fly, no matter the weather or circumstance, which for me is a new concept.
Flying just my body is like nothing I've done before. Think how different it feels when you try to write with your other hand...... Now imagine that new challenge with your entire body - simultaneously in 150mph wind!
Sensory overload of the best kind!!
Your entire body becomes hundreds of control surfaces. Each one can either help you do anything you want.... or make you so out of control it's nearly impossible to have a clue what's even happening!
The balance between being strong and relaxing must be learned from scratch. It's physically exhausting, mentally challenging and Extremely fun! And in the end, you learn how to fly! Imagine that!!
Now, get out there and do something completely new!
