Eggs-treme indoor skydiving at Easter!
Tuesday, 2nd February 2010
Feel the rush with Airkix this holiday
Bored of the Easter egg hunt? Go for some thrill-seeking instead with an eggs-hilarating trip to one of the UK’s top adrenalin-rush activities, the new Airkix Indoor Skydiving in Trafford Quays, Manchester, or the tunnel at Xscape, Milton Keynes. So, if you’re looking for an alternative to overloading on chocolate head to Airkix for a weightlessly satisfied feeling.
Airkix is perfect for friends and families alike, where anyone age 4 to 104 can fly. With no need to jump out a plane, Airkix emulates real skydiving freefall as you hop, Easter bunny style, onto the airflow, assuming a horizontal flying position, freefalling in a controlled and fun indoor environment.
No previous skydiving experience is needed as an instructor will assist you every step of the way ensuring you stay in control and have an amazing time flying in a wind tunnel up to 14ft in diameter and 39ft tall with wind speeds of up to 130mph. After your Airkix flight you have the option of taking home a DVD and pictures of your human flight adventure, the perfect Easter memory to share with friends and family.
Airkix vouchers are available online and with the ease of downloading and printing at home they make the perfect Easter treat. Flights are available from 9am until 10pm throughout the Easter break, so book now to avoid disappointment.
