enclosed SEMI-PRO

Built for maximum commercial efficiency and all kinds of customers

Most investors don’t need the biggest tunnel. They are looking for the highest ROI. The Semi-Pro is built for exactly that. Serious performance, lower CAPEX and OPEX as result the faster path to profitability.

Smaller footprint

Customers pay per flying experience so the industry wide ticket price typically is the same either your tunnel is 3 metres or 4 metres wide. 90% of customers will not understand the difference. The difference is everything that comes before that: land, construction, power, shipping, installation. The semi-pro wins on every one of those lines.

Beginners get smooth airflow, a safe environment, and enough space to feel the flight. Professional solo flyers will find sufficient airflow to master the sit-fly and head-down positions. You get a faster path to profitability.

compact technology

Compact technology means lower investment and easier integration possibilities. While the ticket price for the experience remains the same as in large-scale tunnels, this technology ensures faster return on investment.

Investment wise this model saves on list of things like technology, shipment, installation etc. It also saves on ongoing operational costs.

Integration wise the Semi-Pro model allows saving on the space required. You can have more space for other revenue activities and capitalise on the space available.

DISTINCTIVE DESIGN

Most wind tunnels follow the same vertical-cylinder formula. The Semi-Pro does not. Its angled flight chamber and forward-leaning profile create a distinctive silhouette that stands out inside any venue.

The design is not styling for styling’s sake. The angled chamber creates a more open and immersive experience for both spectators and flyers, making the flight feel more dynamic and expansive. The result is a tunnel that feels visually distinctive, memorable to fly, and naturally engaging to watch.

SUPERIOR SAFETY

Semi-pro model contains top safety and entertainment features.

  • Impact Reduction System. Our latest invention turns the safety net at the bottom of the flight chamber into a trampoline as impact absorption surface in cases of high falls.
  • Fly Wheel Technology. A heavy steel hub for fan blades ensures higher air inertia in case of power outage and provides flyers with sufficient airflow for a safe landing.
  • Carbon fan blades. We use highly durable carbon blades that do not fatigue. (In contrast, fans with metal blades are prone to fatigue and are likely to brake and damage the technology).

MADE IN EU

All critical components of the AERODIUM vertical wind tunnel are manufactured exclusively within the European Union, ensuring full transparency, traceability, and compliance with EU standards.

  • Key design and manufacturing origins:
  • Latvia – design, R&D, structural steel, precision metalwork, fiberglass components
  • Sweden – High-grade aluminum parts
  • Spain – Specialized low-iron structural glass
  • Switzerland – ABB electrical systems and control components

TARGET LOCATION

Shopping mall

Increase the footfall and value of your shopping mall. With new challenges and changing consumer behavior, it is important for shopping malls to find a way to attract people to their location. Entertainment and shows is the way to go!

Stand alone location

Looking for a fresh start in a new location? Head to the suburbs and create a new sports hub for thrill seekers. Unused airport area, an old industrial zone, a business centre are some of great location examples.

Amusement park

Have an edge over other amusement parks. A wind tunnel is a great addition to roller coasters and other extreme attractions but also provides an opportunity to create amazing acrobatic shows to entertain spectators.

Family Entertainment Centre

Attract more people with a fresh and unique attraction! A wind tunnel can be a major highlight of any FEC and can help you spread your message across to a broader audience.

FAQ

What is the capacity of Aerodium vertical wind tunnels?

Vertical wind tunnels have a maximum capacity of 25 flights per hour with a flight time of 2 minutes per person.

Passive Capacity: Spectators love watching people fly in wind tunnels, including acrobatic tricks by pro flyers. The entertainment value of this attraction makes it the perfect anchor for alternative revenue sources like food and beverage, retail products, sponsorship opportunities, and corporate and competitive events.

Why are permanent installations more expensive than open-air?

Classic permanent installations require large-scale building constructions, often involving excavations to accommodate return air chambers. Everything together makes a rather massive construction with high costs. In contrast, open-air wind tunnels do not need a foundation and can be placed on any even surface, such as a parking lot.

Franchise or outright ownership?

You have a choice between both – franchising and outright ownership. With outright ownership, you have more freedom to operate the business as you wish. The downside is that it will require a much deeper involvement and building your own brand. In the franchise option, you would get a full support package and the renowned Aerodium branding, which both will facilitate running the business.
