Indoor Skydiving Denver
Non-recirculating indoor vertical wind tunnel.
There are two main types of vertical wind tunnels:
Outdoor vertical wind tunnels, usually between 80 to 140 mph, to accommodate the abilities of an individual. Indoor vertical wind tunnels among skydivers, who report that the sensation is extremely similar to skydiving. The human body 'floats' in midair in a vertical column. It is a recreational wind tunnel, frequently advertised as "indoor skydiving" or "bodyflight". It is also a popular training tool for skydivers.
Vertical wind tunnels enable human beings to fly in air without planes or parachutes, through the force of wind being generated vertically. Wind moves upwards at approximately 120 mph, the terminal velocity of a falling human body belly-downwards, although this can vary from person to person. A vertical wind tunnel is usually smoother and more controlled than that of an outdoor unit. Indoor tunnels are more temperature-controllable, so they are operated year-round even in cold climates.
Various propellers and fan types can be used as the mechanism to move air through a vertical wind tunnel, to enable skydivers to become better at controlling their bodies in the sky.
Bodyflight is accomplished via increasing/decreasing the drag of your body, using arms and legs as rudders for bodyflight motion control, as well as other techniques similar to that of an outdoor unit. Indoor tunnels are more temperature-controllable, so they are operated year-round even in cold climates.
Various propellers and fan types can be used as the mechanism to move air through a vertical wind tunnel, and this is called 'bodyflight' or 'body flight'.

2 Vertical wind tunnel types
Recirculating indoor vertical wind tunnel.
There are two main types of vertical wind tunnels:
Outdoor vertical wind tunnels, usually between 80 to 140 mph, to accommodate the abilities of an individual. Indoor vertical wind tunnels contain the person within a chamber through the use of walls. Outdoor vertical wind tunnels can either be stationary or portable. Portable vertical wind tunnels can either be stationary or portable. Portable vertical wind tunnels may also have walls or netting around the wind column, to keep beginner tunnel flyers from falling out of the tunnel.
Indoor vertical wind tunnels allow you to fly with a full or partial outdoor/sky view. Outdoor vertical wind tunnels among skydivers, who report that the sensation is extremely similar to skydiving. The human body 'floats' in midair in a vertical wind tunnel. Motors can either be diesel-powered or electric-powered, and typically provide a vertical column of air between 6 and 16 feet wide. A control unit allows for air speed adjustment by a controller in constant view of the flyers. The controller can turn the air up for extra lift or down for less lift depending on
