How to go indoor skydiving
It made me
 "Tough! It wasn't what I thought it would be like. I thought it would feel like flying, but it was more like being hit by a tornado. LOL. Very worth it, though!"
How I did it: I just happened drive by a place in Canada that was offering indoor skydiving, and was like, "No matter what it costs, we are DOING it!" It was myself, my husband, and his cousin. Luckily, the place was deserted for the time of day we were there, so we didn't have to wait. They start you off with a short video and some instruction on how to hold your body in the tunnel. It's very HOT in the tunnel, and from what I understand, on the weekends it gets much busier, and even hotter. When we first walked into the wind tunnel, my husband and I both had a moment of panic and thought of, "OMG, what are we getting outselves in to??" I felt a little closterphobic. But after a few minutes, it was all good. Definitely get a copy of the video, because it's awesome to have something to show your friends and family.. Lessons & tips: It's not as easy as it looks. |

It made me
Blown-away! 
How I did it: I work at the Above the Poconos Skydivers in Hazleton, PA and we took a trip to New Hampshire about 2 years ago to go in the wind tunnel. It's a great way to train for free-falling while skydiving. But if you don't skydive, it's still a lot of fun and worth doing it.<AWESOME> Read how I did it…

Any Takers?
12 months ago
So I’m seriously working toward accomplishing this goal, hopefully by the next pay day, which is two weeks from now for me. I went on facebook and messaged several of my contacts asking if anyone was interested. So far I have gotten two yes’s and one maybe. Considering it costs about $576.00, I’m hoping to get more takers. I guess we’ll see. Worse case scenario, I might go onto craigslist and find another couple random people to go so that we can lower the price. I really don’t want to pay more than $250.00. To do that I have to get…wait let me calculate this…
Okay, so I need like five or six people in order to pay less dinero. I guess we’ll see.

GERANIMO!

Yeah, ever since my fiance and I broke up I’ve been steadily making a list and working toward completeing things that scare me sh*tless. One of those things is indoor skydiving—I’m looking into this place in North Carolina. It costs like $525 for 12 people. Right now I can think of about seven people who may be willing to go. That would definately bring down the price and up the fun. I feel really weird suggesting it though because this isn’t the sort of thing that my friends and I normally do. I wonder what they’ll think. If no one or very few of them are willing to do it, I definately still want to go. So yeah, here goes nothing, here goes everything. Let’s bloody make this happen!
I’m going to send out an email to everyone now.
A Great Time, but it's a lot harder then it looks.

I wouldn’t say I make it look easy, but for as bad as I look doing it, most people just bounce off the walls the whole time if the guy in there with you isn’t holding onto you.
I've gone actual skydiving, but I want to try this.

Indoor Skydiving
2 years ago
I went indoor skydiving in Tennesee many years ago and it was a total blast and I would do it again! The only thing was after I got done I couldn’t stop sneezing for an hour or more! I was getting kind of nervous and thought I was going to have to go to the hospital but the sneezing finally stopped. Must have been the dust from the fan in the tunnel.
Anyways, I highly recommend it!!

I can’t quite convince myself that jumping out of a perfectly good air plane is a good idea. Indoor skydiving was for me! I have gone twice now, and it is the bomb! You feel like you are flying without “falling”. I felt it was like I was meant to fly!
