Is Indoor Skydiving Scary?

It can feel **intense** — the noise, the wind on your face, and floating off the grate surprise people. It is not a plane exit and not a canopy ride. An instructor is in the chamber with you. Most first-timers rate the scare as short and controllable.

Nervous is normal. Panic that ignores the brief is not the goal. Follow hand signals and keep your body position.

What Helps

Watch the brief. Ask questions at the counter. Tell the instructor it is your first time. Breathe. Keep eyes on the instructor’s signals.

FAQ

**Worse than a roller coaster?** Different. Continuous wind vs drops and loops. People who hate heights sometimes still like the tunnel because the floor is right there.

**Can I stop mid-flight?** The instructor can take you out. Say something if you need to stop.
