The Indoor Skydiving Experience and How it Works

Indoor skydiving, also known as body flight, simulated skydiving, or wind tunnel flying, replicates the experience of free-falling from a plane while staying securely inside a vertical wind tunnel. iFLY locations have flight chambers with powerful fans that generate winds up to 175 mph!

The high-speed airflow rushing vertically up through the tunnel lifts you off the ground and into the air, allowing you to float, fly, and soar as if you just jumped out of an airplane.

But unlike real skydiving from thousands of feet up, there’s no parachute required for indoor skydiving. The flight chamber is made of clear acrylic walls so friends and family can watch your flight.

Each iFLY location has an advanced air circulation system that keeps fresh air moving through the flight chamber. Flyers wear a jumpsuit, goggles, and helmet to stay comfortable in the high winds.

The instructor helps stabilize and guide you to make flying easy even for beginners. Indoor skydiving is an extremely safe activity with extensively trained staff, so people of almost all ages and body types can enjoy the thrill of flight.

Who Can Go Indoor Skydiving?

One of the best parts about indoor skydiving is that it’s an experience almost anyone can enjoy. iFLY has flights available for kids as young as 3 years old and does not have an upper age restriction, only health restrictions.

Flyers should be at least 3 feet tall and generally weigh less than 250 pounds. You must be able to raise your arms up over your head and have the body control to maintain an arched belly-to-earth flying position.

People with recent surgery, neck/back injuries, heart conditions, or who are pregnant should avoid flying. All flyers or their legal guardian will need to sign a waiver before their flight.

While indoor skydiving does not require physical fitness or special skills, participants should have enough mobility and stamina to hold themselves in the proper arched flying position and lift their arms and legs against the powerful wind. It’s a thrilling experience suitable for most ages and ability levels when done under the supervision of iFLY’s trained instructors.

What Should I Expect During My iFLY Experience?

Your entire iFLY indoor flight experience lasts approximately an hour from check-in to taking flight photos. Here are all the steps you can expect:

• Check in at the front desk and store your personal belongings in a locker
• Watch a training/safety video
• Get sized up for your flight suit, helmet, goggles, and gear
• Attend a 30-minute training class with an instructor on proper flying form and hand signals used in the wind tunnel
• Fly! Most first-time flyer packages include two 60-second flights
• Change out of your flight gear and have time after your flight to view photos and videos captured during your skydive

The highlight is of course your time spent flying in the wind tunnel. During your flight, an instructor will be inside the tunnel with you to provide support, stabilize your flying positions, and make sure you’re safe.

Most first-timers will fly in a belly-to-earth skydiving position, but you can try out fun tricks or flips once you get the hang of it. The instructor guides you by gesturing which way to turn and move in the powerful airstream whipping past you.

Just a slight shift in body position will send you soaring up, down, forwards, or backwards! It’s an incredible feeling that leaves you grinning ear to ear. Each flight lasts 60 seconds, but it feels like time slows down when you’re completely weightless in the air.

What Are the Requirements to Fly at iFLY?

To enjoy the thrill of indoor skydiving, there are a few basic requirements flyers must meet for safety reasons:

• Flyers must be at least 3 years old and weigh less than 250 pounds
• Flyers between 3-7 years old must purchase a flight package and fly with an instructor
• Minors under 18 years old will need a waiver signed by their parent or legal guardian
• Flyers must be able to raise their arms over their head and hold a basic arched flying position
• Expectant mothers past the first trimester may not fly
• Flyers must attend the required training class before their flight
• No alcohol or intoxicating substances before flying

As long as you meet these basic safety criteria, almost anyone can experience the fun of indoor skydiving! It’s a safe activity with an excellent safety record, thanks to iFLY’s intensive training protocols.
