      Had great fun doing this the other day:

      It was my daughter's 21st, and so we all went to Airkix for a birthday treat.

      We have a video but it is not up on YouTube.

      The instructors are very skilled:

          I think this would "cure" those pleasant dreams I have had of levitating and "swimming" above the ground. 😆

            THat is great fun. I did once before. I was surprised how tough it was on my shoulders. Felt like it was going to rip my arms out of their sockets - well maybe not that bad, but pretty bad. 💚

              Dear Chris,

              Yes, I found the same problem, and it is also hard on the lower back too. The hardest thing on my 'airframe' was when they increased the air speed so that the instructor could spin me up the tunnel. My daughter loved it and it reminded her of her jump over Lake Tahoe in New Zealand last year. That was from 15,000 feet.

              Regards,
              Bob

                Hi, watkins:
                You know, somebody's probably gonna ask how Lake Tahoe got in New Zealand? A quick check showed a Lake Taupo in New Zealand. 😄

                  I just saw lake Tahoe on Friday, so I figured maybe New Zealand had borrowed it last year and then returned it already.

                    Coulda been a metaphysical perturbation?

                    EDIT: Of course, from 15,000 feet, you can see a hell of a lot 💚

                      Oops, Lake Taupo it is! Just had a long and tiring day. Another 'duh' moment in my life. Thanks for the correction.
