Vegas Indoor Skydiving
The Experience
Vegas Indoor Skydiving operates the first indoor skydiving facility to open in the United States, the vertical wind tunnel we use was built in 1982. At Vegas Indoor Skydiving guests will earn their wings and experience bodyflight during a simulated sky dive experience in the heart of the Las Vegas Strip. The experience is similar to the free-fall aspect of skydiving with the addition of a mesh trampoline floor and foam padded walls. Guests are able to experience the sensation of free-fall without the use of an airplane or parachute.
The mission is to provide a safe and memorable indoor skydiving experience to the general public, understanding that everyone will learn and grow at different rates, adapting to the ability of the flyer, and to encourage their development by sharing our love and knowledge of flight.
Vegas Indoor Skydiving uses a vertical wind tunnel to introduce guests to the sport of indoor skydiving. The tunnel produces enough wind to support the weight of an average adult. At Vegas Indoor Skydiving, each guest will attend a brief training class, suit up in all the necessary flight gear, then jump in the tunnel and fly. The entire experience typical takes just one hour. We are located at on Convention Center Drive, half a block from the Las Vegas Strip just north of the Encore hotel.
The wind tunnel itself is 12 feet wide and 22 feet tall, and yes with a lot of practice you can go all the way to the top. The machine is powered by a 1000 horsepower electric motor attached to the propeller from a DC-3 airplane.
