Description
Ever wanted to fly? Silly question right? With Freefall Xtreme, not only do you have the chance to ‘fly’, but you will be given the opportunity to defy gravity and soar – all without wings! Situated at Velocity Valley – 10km north-west from the city of Rotorua – Freefall Xtreme provides you with the unique opportunity to glide and hover in a giant column of propelled air, and experience the mind-blowing weightlessness of an unattached flight.
Known as’ body flying’, Freefall Xtreme is the only place in New Zealand where this ultimate sensation can be accomplished. Inside the giant blustery column – and with the flight masters guidance – you can reach massive heights of up to four metres! Freefall Xtreme will provide you with your flight suit, the training, tips and tricks to attain whichever Xtreme flying sensation you desire.
At any time, you can increase your flight time from the usual 1.5 minutes (which is the standard flight time) and can upgrade in intervals of 1.5 minutes to whichever length of time you desire. If the extreme activities of New Zealand are calling you, this flight simulation on offer at Freefall Xtreme is a definite must-do!
This adrenaline-fuelled dream can be enjoyed by all – no matter what your age (parental consent required if you are under 18 years old). So that you don’t forget this amazing experience (as if you ever would), your whole body-flight is captured on camera and is available to purchase afterwards – and as the Freefall Xtreme staff cheekily declare “you even get to keep your free hairstyle!”

we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your time at Agroventures. As previously communicated this booking was confirmed with Agroventures as soon as it was received by us but unfortunately it was not noted down correctly at Agroventures. It's a shame we were not contacted straight away via the contact details on the activity voucher to avoid you wasting 30 minutes trying to sort it out and paying twice. You should have received the credit by now back on your card. We are sorry for the inconvenience this mishap has caused.
