On our recent RV adventure to Colorado Springs, Ms Barbara and I had the opportunity to check some items off our bucket lists. She took a peaceful morning hot air balloon ride over the Springs. I rafted the beautiful Arkansas River and then experienced the thrill of flight without the risk at iFly Indoor Skydiving Colorado Springs.
Introduction
Have you ever dreamed of skydiving but were too afraid to take the plunge? Or maybe you're an experienced skydiver looking for a new challenge. If so, iFLY indoor skydiving is the perfect activity for you.
iFLY is a state-of-the-art wind tunnel that allows you to experience the thrill of flight without the risks of jumping out of a plane. You'll be guided by a certified instructor who will teach you how to control your body in the air. Once you've mastered the basics, you'll be able to soar through the wind tunnel like a bird.
What to Expect
Your iFLY experience will start with a safety briefing from your instructor. They'll explain the basics of indoor skydiving and answer any questions you have. Once you're feeling comfortable, you'll put on a flight suit and helmet and step into the wind tunnel.
Your instructor will be with you the entire time, helping you to control your body in flight. You'll start by practicing basic movements, such as floating, turning, and rolling. Once you've mastered the basics, you'll be able to try more advanced moves, such as flips and spins. And the entire experience is filmed and recorded, and you can access the videos on the iFLY website shortly after your flight.
How Does It Feel?
Indoor skydiving feels like floating on a column of air. You'll feel weightless and free. It was an incredible feeling that I'll never forget. Again, add it to your bucket list!
Is It Safe?
Yes, indoor skydiving is very safe. The wind tunnel is a controlled environment and there are experienced instructors on hand to help you at all times.
