A skydiving simulator, known also as the vertical wind tunnel or free fall simulator, will give you the feeling of a real skydiving experience while staying safely on the ground. Some love the wind tunnel just for what it is and others use it mostly as a training space before their real jump, but everyone has a great time when the strong, 280 km/h (174 mph) fast wind stream lifts them up in the air.
The wind tunnel is 4.3 meters wide, which makes it a fun activity for couples who can free fall together and maybe practice some advanced formations. Experienced skydivers will give you tips on how to achieve popular tricks, and maybe they will even inspire you to do the real thing. They can also record your technique on video if you wish and give you additional feedback on how to improve without wasting too much energy.
The price is €71 per person for a 3-minute free fall, and includes an English speaking professional instructor and gear.

Practical Information
Before the flight, you will get a detailed briefing from qualified instructors. You will be loaned protective equipment: overalls, helmet, goggles, and gloves.
After this briefing, you will get to the flight chamber. This chamber is closed, so there is no falling out of the air stream, and the whole time you’re under the supervision of an experienced instructor. In a short time you will learn how to control your body in a wind stream and use 3D motion options.
The enter periods are recommended after 1.5 min because of the physical demands of the discipline. After the flight you can check the record of free fall simulation, which you can analyse together with the instructor.
