It\u2019s a totally normal question, and we get it all the time when we invite people to come around and play in the wind tunnel with us. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSo…how much is indoor skydiving?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our favorite way to answer: <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHow much <\/span>what<\/i><\/b> is it?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because you see, tunnel flying is a big, beautiful, complicated beast that deserves to be approached from a number of different angles. Otherwise, none of the individual elements make much sense. Come with us, then, brave reader, as we look at how much of everything it is to fly in the \u201cindoor skydiving\u201d wind tunnel.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When we fly in the tunnel, we do it by the minute. We work in very short rotations, stop and rest, then go in again. There\u2019s a timer on the wall that counts it down. That sounds tiny, doesn\u2019t it? Actually, once you\u2019re in there, you\u2019ll realize how not-tiny it actually is, because\u2026<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How Much Work Is Indoor Skydiving? <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When <\/span>this<\/span><\/i> author started flying seriously, for instance, I couldn\u2019t stay in there for a rotation of more than a minute. My daily fifteen minutes ran me absolutely ragged. As all things sport, I\u2019ve gotten much stronger with time (and learned not to fight the wind so much), but make no mistake: tunnel flying is aerobic and acrobatic, and requires a surprising amount of flexibility, strength, endurance and mental focus. It will get you fit like <\/span>crazy<\/span><\/i>. …and, believe me, for all that, it is <\/span>wildly <\/span><\/i>rewarding. The more you fly, the better you get at it–which is addictive, which means you\u2019ll want to fly more. And, when you fly a <\/span>lot<\/span><\/i>, another thing can happen…<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t believe me? <\/span>Just check this out.<\/span><\/a> Indoor skydiving is a <\/span>lot<\/span><\/i> of glory if you have your sights set at the top of the podium.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
