I checked out the video and it looked fantastic. I was surprised to see how cheap it really was $88 which gives you the equivalent of 3 skydives which collectively would be worth over $600. What a great experience I personally would love to try it, to fly with no strings attached and have minutes of free fall is like a dream come true though how does the free fall thing work seen as you aren't really free falling just being pushed up in an air chamber. Nice find Matt

I'll be staying at the towers in march, im upset it won't be done for when I'm there. I've done sky diving here at home 2 times so it would be interesting to see how it compares to the real thing.

^Well, it isn't opening for about 12 months, so it's not like you will have 'just missed it' in March. It looks like a pretty cool attraction for Surfers....to be honest I have wondered why it hasn't turned up on the GC already, as it is sort of a perfect fit for the area.

I think I'm more interested to read of Steve Peet's involvement than anything else. Great attraction for surfers.

Mmmm I can just think of it.... nice dinner, drinks at Shooters, Mybar, Showgirls, Melbas, and then over to bring it all up on the skydiving simulator

It's excellent to see the local attraction lineup fill up more. Surfers is a playground -- we need as many options as we can get.

I am going to there at gold coast this month last week, should have a great and awesome experience of skydiving.

This Attraction has been scraped. Sorry to say

What! Scraped! I thought this ‘body-flight’ thing is going to be something different. Though I have tried it in Malaysia, still Orlando would be my next target.
