Activity description :

Elodie and Yvan welcome you to the La Roche-sur-Yon airfield in the Vendée region, where you can experience freefall jumping in an open-air wind tunnel.

What is a wind tunnel?

A wind tunnel, also known as an indoor free-fall simulator, is a large glass tube that reproduces the sensations of free-fall at an altitude of 4,000 meters.

How does it work?

Duration: 1 min 15 - Up to 30 people - From 5 years upwards

On arrival, the instructor will provide you with your equipment: wetsuit, helmet and goggles. You'll then be briefed on the safety instructions to be followed, and your instructor will start by giving you a demonstration flight. You'll then each take a turn in the wind tunnel. The 1st flight is a discovery flight, the 2nd flight you start to fly on your own and climb higher, the 3rd flight you fly without apprehension and virtually without instructor intervention.

Two options are available:

  • Single-duration flight, equivalent to a parachute jump to 4500 m (approx. 1min 15s).
  • Double-duration flight, which lasts twice as long or the equivalent of a jump to 9000 m.

This activity is ideal as a gift for a loved one, or as part of a bachelor party.

Very nice experience, this gliding sensation is just great and the instructors (Yvan and Élodie) are top notch. We'd love to do it again.

Great experience and great feeling. Ivan accompanies us during the flights, corrects us, top-notch instructor. I was a little apprehensive at the start, but Ivan and Élodie's kindness quickly swept me away. We had a great time. Thanks to both of them. Patricia and Émile
