Indoor skydiving 🪂

I went to an indoor skydiving place. You go into a cylinder with air blowing upwards really fast and you float in the air current. I had two flights of a minute each, and on the second one an instructor flew with me while they turned the wind speed up, and we went up surprisingly high. The flights weren't really long enough to learn how to control myself in the air flow, beyond getting stable ebough that the instructor wasn't holding you all the time. If you get good at it you can steer yourself around, flip onto your back, or even fly in a sitting position.

P.S. There doesn't seem to be a skydiving emoji, so I used the parachute one. Somewhat misleading, as there was no parachute.
