“I was training in smallest open wind tunnel to prepare for the World Cup of Indoor Skydiving 2018.
If you can fly the routine in 2.25 m wind flow, then there is nothing that can stop you from winning the World Cup.”
Toms Īvāns, AERODIUM instructor, FAI World Cup Champion of Indoor Skydiving 2018
“We are bringing about 90% of our students to the wind tunnel before the actual jumps from plane. AFF students can practice at a low and safe height, learn a lot of small details and movements which will benefit later for the skydiving, plus the training time in the tunnel is much longer than freefall time. It’s also less stressful for me as I already know how each student adapts to airflow.”
Reinis Rūtentāls, Skydive Latvia instructor
“The experience was like no other, and every moment in the wind tunnel was 100% fun. It is different from other wind tunnel because we could bring whatever we wanted into the wind tunnel from bean bags to skis and snowboards. I can’t wait to go back.”
Kyra Poh, Professional Indoor Skydiver, Red Bull Athlete, Aerodium Sigulda, O2 Open-air wind tunnel
“It was very, very hard work. I was very proud after I finished it. Now I am able to say that I once shot a wind tunnel flying scene!”
