  • Indoor Skydiving Trip

    Come Indoor Skydiving with the UConn Skydiving Club!

    We are holding an upcoming trip to the wind tunnel for indoor skydiving in Nashua, NH. 
    This trip is open to anyone who would like to come.  Indoor skydiving feels the exact same as freefall, without the plane, parachute, or the fact that you are falling to the earth.  So if you are too scared to try outdoor skydiving, come indoor skydiving!

    The wind tunnel is essentially a column of air in which you can float around in.  You can wave to your friends outside the glass.  Video is provided!

    If you are interested in going, come to our meeting tomorrow, Wednesday Nov 5th at 9PM in SU319.  If you cannot make it but would like to go, send me dates that you can go.  We will be going on a Friday or Saturday evening.  We will be carpooling to go up there.  It is about 1hr and 45 min away.

    What: Indoor Skydiving in Nashua, NH

    When: Friday or Saturday evening (Reply with dates you can make)

    Where: Nashua, NH.  Carpooling will take place

    Cost: $12.50 per minute.  You can buy time in blocks of 3, 6, 10, 15, or 20 minutes.  (10 minutes is highly recommended)  This is cheaper than skydiving!  $125 gets you 10 minutes of freefall, or about 10 skydives. Video is included. 

    No previous experience necessary. All are welcome.  For more information come to our meeting or email us with questions.  Check out SkyventureNH.com or our Facebook page: Skydive UConn or our website UConnSkydivingClub.com
