I went to check out the indoor skydiving at Flyaway, Las Vegas.
It’s expensive if you just show up at the door. Get a group of people together and book a time in advance for a good price.
The video clips of advanced flyers look great. They can flip and twist as can real skydivers.
But beginners are limited in what they are allowed to do — basically just spin like a turntable.
Procedure: It involves floating on a column of high-speed air inside a tube-like chamber. training session includes a five-minute video, you’re taught the proper posture: back arched, arms above your head and legs slightly bent. It seems easy, but once you get into the chamber, there are so many fluctuations.
Precaution : People with neck or shoulder problems, or previous shoulder separations should avoid it.
