Is there a wind tunnel there and do you know it's website address?


No there is not a wind tunnel in Sacramento. There is one coming to the Bay Area this summer though.
It's going to open in the San Jose area, but I dont remember exactly where the guy thats building it, told me he was looking to building it?
It will be a SkyVenture tunnel, so maybe you can contact them on ther web site at SkyVenture.com to find more info about it I'm sure.;)

It’s across the country but I went to the Orlando one this weekend. I thought it was great. I was struggling with AFF but with 60 minutes in the tunnel I should have no more problems; I can fly like a bird. A great training tool!

That link will be the "NEW" tunnel that is being planned for the San Jose area.

Any Sacramento jumpers who would know if there is a tunnel in Sacramento.

The person whom I spoke to convinced me he had jumped in a tunnel, and I questioned him in detail about the facility so he had convinced me that is is real.

I heard from a person who said he went to a vertical wind tunnel in Sacramento, CA.




Yeah, that was my new business.

I have this really big box fan I got from K-Mart, a bunch of card board, and a whole lot of gaffers tape.

Gotta use gaffers tape, the Duct tape will blow off.

I'll let you gimme $10 a minute if you want to use it.

Last I heard (at the Byron Boogie) is that it will be in the Silicon Valley, but not San Jose. Someplace further North like Hayward or the other side of the bay. He said that there were problems with building in Santa Clara county because of Great America. The county already has an agreement that GA was to be the only "amusement" park in the area - wind tunnels included.

Beavis: Yeah! Yeah! Cool!
