Windtunnel

SkyVenture Arizona is a state-of-the-art skydiving wind tunnel located directly on the Skydive Arizona™ Drop Zone and just a short 5-minute-walk away from our office. This skydiving simulator is a 2nd generation SkyVenture, built by Skyventure LLC. This is a large structure with four 400hp top mounted fans with a lexan and steel enclosed flight area.
