![]() It was easy, just keep your chin up, arms out in front and breathe and you will float. I was floating and moving around on the air. When I stepped into the wind tube I followed the instructions and just relaxed. When I signed in no one was around, when I stepped out a crowd had developed.gulp! Stifling the fear I put on the gear and stepped out to the tube which is out in a middle of an outdoor mall. I was the only one so I got personal attention but I sensed that the instructor cared about his job and his trainees so I got the full experience It was an easy sign up process and the staff was helpful and friendly. I loved it!! I am 66 years old and in good health so I figure what can happen. I have always wanted to try skydiving but did not want to fall out of a plane. So that is why I do not recommend this place. I know this female employee didnt protocol because I know the owner wouldn't want to have his company represented this way. I was so humiliated that not only was this experience ruined due to the incompetence of 1 person but the rest of my evening that was supposed to be spent joyously celebrating my friends upcoming wedding. So I said I was too scared after I collected myself and my time was divided amoung my group. I couldn't ruin everyone elses day especially the soon to be bride and groom. How was I supposed to walk back out there after that, with everyone knowing my weight and know that I am the only 1 who cannot do the high fly like everyone else in my group. So I said my weight and then walked myself to the restroom where I broke down crying out of sheer humiliation. Well folks thats not what happened a female employee started going down the list of names and got to mine and said you stated you exceed 260lbs so how much do you weigh? This was done in a loud voice not only infront of everyone in my group BUT infront of everyone standing around. ![]() Okay no problem I would rather discreetly hit yes an tell the instructor discreetly then make my weight known to the whole group and random people standing around waiting for people to fly. The waiver states to advise your instructor prior to flying. The waiver asks if you exceed 260 lbs which I do, and I tall and curvy. 1 simple gesture to prevent humiliation, or discomfort was totally disregarded with horrible delivery and total humiliation. We were told it would be a fun and exciting experience. ![]() The plan was to go to Ifly for my friends bachelor/bachelorette party. ![]()
