Where to Go Indoor Skydiving

Vegas Indoor Skydiving

Since 1982, Vegas Indoor Skydiving has entertained visitors looking for that special adrenaline rush. The facility offers a free fall skydiving experience generated by a vertical wind tunnel which can support average sized adults. To ensure safety, the skydiving room is equipped with a mesh trampoline floor and padded walls. Participants wear flight gear and receive a short training tutorial in which they learn how to position the body to get the best quality flight and learn advice for preventing injuries. There is also a short practice session to learn how to enter and exit the wind tunnel safely.

The experience is open to people of all ages, but there is a 40 pound minimum weight requirement for children. In addition, there are different weight limitations based on height for men and women. Participants should wear comfortable clothes, socks, and secure shoes. Prices vary according to season, and there are family and friend packages available, which come with a souvenir DVD.

SkyVenture Colorado

Designed by NASA engineers, SkyVenture Colorado's 1200 horsepower fan generates winds up to 160 mph. The result is a blast of fresh air that suspends you in free fall. The facility offers sessions for beginners, repeat customers, and experienced skydivers. Beginner sessions teach basic positions and safety skills. If you want more, there are coaching classes providing instruction in turning left and right 360 degrees, moving forwards and backwards, and flying head down. Customers can purchase the skydiving experience in minute increments or sessions up to 60 minutes. Gift certificates to Skyventure are the perfect gift for adrenaline junkies. Reservations are required.

There is no maximum age limit, but participants must be in good health and not have former spine or shoulder injuries.
