Flystation Japan
The first ever flystation indoor skydiving center in Japan will open by the end of March 2017 in Koshigaya Saitama. Soon we will have the rare opportunity to experience flying without jumping out of a plane! The center uses a vertical wind-tunnel for a skydiving simulation of falling at about 200 kilometers per hour. With winds of up to 360 kilometers per hour, surely it will feel as close to the real deal as possible indoors.
They provide all the necessary equipment such as suit and helmet and a trained instructor is in the room with you. Children from four years of age are able to participate.
If you would like to try skydiving for real, Saitama is also home to the Tokyo Skydiving Club. Located in Kawajima / Okegawa, the Honda Airport is a manageable daytrip from Tokyo.
