This introduction to Indoor Skydiving gives you two 1 minute 'flights' in a huge vertical wind tunnel, giving you a perfect skydiving simulation in the safest possible environment!

Indoor Skydiving Experience Days: Experience the weightless feeling of skydiving during this introductory indoor skydive, available in Basingstoke, Manchester and Milton Keynes. This adventure is the perfect way to try skydiving in a safe and controlled environment, taking 2 x one minute flights to simulate that 'free-fall' feeling!

Your experience begins when you arrive at your chosen iFLY venue in Milton Keynes, Manchester or Basingstoke. There, you’ll be signed in, and given a safety briefing to prepare you for your introductory indoor skydiving experience. Next, you’ll be supplied with a special flight suit, goggles and helmet, and line up outside the wind tunnel to await your turn. Watch your fellow thrill-seekers bobbing on a bed of air like a cork in water as you eagerly await to be called forward – and, when it’s your turn to step into the wind tunnel, you’ll be accompanied by an expert instructor. They’re there to help you get the most out of your experience and coach you through the hand signals you’ll need in order to communicate. Simply straighten your arms and let yourself fall forward as the powerful wind lifts you from solid ground all the way to the top of the 20 foot tunnel. Just like that, you’re skydiving! This experience includes 2 x one minute flights, equivalent to the free-fall of three tandem skydives. When your indoor flight comes to an end, you’ll be safely brought back down to solid ground with a huge smile on your face. 

This Indoor Skydiving Kick Start Experience is the perfect gift experience for thrill-seekers, and makes for a fun day out!

We booked this after the original experience we had got repeatedly cancelled because of the weather. We decided to go for something indoors, completely left-field and something that we've never tried before and we certainly got it! The place was professionally run and the staff ensured everyone had a really good time, regardless of ability. The actual time spent doing the activity was short, but it will be very hard to forget!

Brilliant experience and completely different to anything I've done before! The feeling is indescribable and seeing how talented our instructor was in the wind tunnel has made me want to go back and continue earning my wings! The certificate awarded to us at the end was a lovely memento of the memorable day we had. The perfect birthday present for an adrenaline junkie or someone who has always wanted to know what it feels like to fly high!!

This was my second time at ifly (previously airkix). Aside from the limited availability and having to go at 8 am, we had a great time. Instructors took great care and time with us along with helping a very nervous flyer. Wish we'd have longer in the tunnel for a more reasonable price, or a cheaper add ons. I paid extra £7 to go higher- I personally don't think it was worth it but others did. Fun day would recommend if you haven't previously sky dived!

Pretty nerve-wracking at first but once you take the plunge and jump in it's an amazing experience. Instructors are fantastic and give you a little show at the end!

It was an absolutely fabulious experience that I shared with my 7 Year old son. We both thoroughly enjoyed the day. The instructors were excellent in their approach and ability and made a potentially scarry experience for my son a most enjoyable one. Will definately recommend and have done so many times to my friends.
