Where are you/ where will you be located? Here is a map to our future site.
When is your planned opening? We are set to break ground in the Spring of 2010. Barring any unforeseen construction delays, we intend to be operational by December 2010. We have engineering and design completed, permits, leased land, and startup capital.
What are your hours? TBD, upon opening. We expect operating hours to be 7 days a week, 9am-11:30pm.
Age/weight limits? Anyone over the age of 3, under 230 lbs.
What are your rates? Our expected rate is between $30 and $50 per flight: group rates and yearly passes will also be available.
How safe is it? Vertical windtunnels have been in operation for decades and have a remarkable record of safety. As a sport and activity, is considered far safer, due to the absence of any significant injuries, than go-cart riding, skiing, or sunbathing.
I’m really interested in investing, is that possible? Most of our funding has been raised; we are open to an additional venture partner. Contact us for a copy of our business plan, upon completion of a confidentiality agreement.
