iFLY Set To Deliver The Dream of Flight to Paramus

On Apr 4, 2018

iFLY, the world’s largest indoor skydiving operation, is now delivering the dream of flight to adventure seekers in New Jersey. The new location at 211 State Route 4 in Paramus is the 29th iFLY facility in the U.S.

People of all ages and abilities can experience human flight in a safe, comfortable and fun environment – without having to jump out of an airplane. Each indoor skydiving facility is a marvel of engineering that replicates the sensation of freefall, creating conditions that allow people to lean in and float on a smooth cushion of air. With the help of iFLY certified flight instructors, customers learn to fly, control their bodies in the air and experience true human flight.

“Our mission is to deliver the dream of flight to everybody, starting at the age of 3,” said David Kirchhoff, iFLY chief executive officer. “Since 1998, more than nine million customers worldwide have experienced human flight at iFLY in a variety of ways: as a first time or repeat flyer on a fun excursion with family and friends; a student on an educational Science, Technology, Engineering  and Math (S.T.E.M.) field trip; a professional skydiver or member of the military for training; a birthday party guest; or a corporate customer looking for a unique team-building activity. Thanks to iFLY, flying is finally available to everyone.”

iFLY also offers Flight School for kids ages 4-16 and various adult league nights and coaching programs to allow tunnel flyers an opportunity to progress in the sport of bodyflight.

To prepare for their flight experience, customers complete a training class guided by one of iFLY’s flight and safety instructors. They then are equipped with flight gear, including goggles, helmet and flight suit, and enter the flight chamber by leaning forward into a smooth cushion of air, with a flight instructor at their side.

All flight packages include training, flight gear, and flight time with an International Bodyflight Association (IBA) certified instructor. The IBA established the gold standard for training and safety standards for indoor skydiving instructors. All iFLY instructors meet or exceed IBA standards.
