FlyStation Japan, in Koshigaya, Saitama, is an indoor skydiving wind tunnel. Flyers float on a column of fast air inside a glass-walled chamber, with no plane or parachute involved. The tunnel is 4.5 metres across and 19.8 metres high, and the glass walls make it easy to watch from outside.

Each session starts with a briefing and a practice drill with the instructors, followed by a one-on-one flight. Flight suits, helmets, goggles and shoes are all included in the price.
