For Tori's 16th B-Day I gave her a gift certificate to take her and a friend to "iFLY UTAH" in Ogden! She chose her friend Danni, as they have known each other since Kindergarten (11 years) and have a pact to go skydiving when they graduate from high school! This first pic is sitting in the training video where they are taught hand signals, etc.
The instructor (Devin) is placing the earplugs (it's noisy in that wind tunnel!)
All suited up (Tori in blue, Danni in green) with their instructor.
Learning to FLY! They had an absolute blast and ended up going back 2 weeks later where they got more minutes in the tunnel, and learned more tricks! Devin said they were naturals, and after watching some of the others who were there, I can see what he means! I think it's harder than it looks!
What a BLAST! I HIGHLY recommend this place. It's in a complex called the Salomon Center (http://www.salomoncenter.com or click on the link at the right of my blog under "Cool Stuff") that has a Gold's Gym, a Fat Cat's, a few restaurants, an indoor wave, a rock climbing center, and the only wind tunnel in Utah! (I TRIED to get a video to post, but it wouldn't work ... maybe later!)
