About the Facility:
The SkyVenture experience is so similar to real skydiving that professional skydivers use the wind tunnel for training. World champion teams from all over the globe train at SkyVenture in Orlando, and they continue to be amazed at their rapid skill development. First time flyers and groups enjoy the thrill of flying while cheering each other as they soar to new heights.
At SkyVenture flying is as easy as 1, 2, 3:
1. Train: Before your flight experience, your group will learn the correct flight position from professional instructors and practice body flight positions and hand signals prior to your team’s flight.
2. Gear Up. With basic freefall training under your belt, your group will suit up in SkyVenture’s flight suits and skydiving gear.
3. Fly! Once your group moves into the tunnel area, you'll take turns flying one-on-one with your flight coach. As an individual flying and part of a team cheering each other on, you'll find there's no experience like this.

“ It was a blast! The instructor made it easy for beginners to have a great time. We each had two "flights" of a couple minutes each, but it was also fun watching the others. I'd like to go back and learn a little about how to actually control my motions! ”
