Indoor Skydiving: The Next Best Indoor Extreme Sports

There is a new "extreme" sport in town. It is not dangerous, it is suitable for everyone between the ages of 4 to 104, and it is one of the most exhilarating and fun things any human being will ever get to do. We are talking about skydiving here "" but indoor skydiving, in the safety and comfort of a specifically designed "wind tunnel".

The wind tunnel is inverted "" you step out into it and the updraft basically keeps you flying for as long as you want (or as long as you have paid for, anyway "" if you stayed in there and up there for as long as you wanted then no one else would ever get to have a go). Airkix supply all the specialist gear for your flights such as jumpsuit, helmet & goggles. The sensation you get is out of this world "" the kind of thing you may have dreamed about, when you dream that you are flying: but to actually do it is something else again.

Indoor skydiving is basically a freefall, which replicates actual skydive. While, the real sky diving involves a lot many risks, indoor skydiving offers almost the same amount of excitement minus the risk factor. So, precisely, if you fancy learning what it feels like flying - then indoor skydiving is for you. You can do it alone, in groups; you can even do it as part of a superb corporate package, which knocks all other team building exercises into a cocked hat.

The indoor version of skydiving, because it is so safe, is a great leveller "" probably one of the first to simulate extreme sports, too. People that would not usually go anywhere near a plane take one look at the boys and girls whooping for joy in the wind tunnel and figure they might as well give it a go too. Any apprehension is quickly lost as the unmatchable sensation of suddenly being weightless, supported on air becomes a reality. Bear in mind, too, that indoor skydiving is extremely cheap, for what it is: you get to fly, to freefall, for a fraction of the amount that skydiving from a plane would cost you.

The latest "extreme" sports simulator offered by Airkix is already taking the country by storm. With one venue in Manchester and another in Milton Keynes about 30 minutes outside London, people from all over the UK are getting a chance to try it and love it.
