This is THE MAN right here! Tommy Turbo!!
Felicia C.

Okay so I want to start this review off by saying.. HOLY COW! This was the most fun I've had in a while. Tommy Turbo was the most fun instructor ever! The morale of our group was amazing, he managed to keep us all engaged with one another so that we all felt comfortable. I have to say, the moment I got out into that wind, I wasn't sure if I could do it.. Tommy gave me a boost of confidence by saying "don't worry, I got you" I trusted him and because of that I was able to fully go out on a whim and launch into the air!! He's so funny and really just has a great personality! He's definitely meant to be around people and guide them with activities like this. You have to be strong to be able to handle people's emotions lol and he sure enough handled mine while I was semi freaking out I also wanted to shout out Jeremy! The moment I walked over to him with a few questions, he was so attentive and kind. He has such a welcoming and friendly demeanor. It truly was very appreciated! It's not every day that people do things like this and who you're met with along the way really determines the overall experience! Mine was 1000% AMAZING! I even bought the package to come back and fly with Tommy again! He's earned my trust so I know I'm in good hands with him! What an awesome crew you guys have over here in Paramus! Thank you again for making my day brighter guys!

This was a great birthday experience for my husband. The instructor was great. I couldn't fly which I was disappointed about but it was advised if you've had any should dislocation not to so I was grateful for a heads up. Fun & different activity!

My son was invited to ifly for a birthday along with 7 friends. The birthday boys parents opted out of the birthday room because it was a very short time. Instead, they decided to treat a few of the boys to ifly then a party at their home afterwards. The kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves. The instructors were patient, helpful and entertaining. They were very good with kids and adults. I would definitely return. My son did say it was harder than he imagined. He said the air pressure in the large tube was so strong that he had difficulty breathing. Luckily they were only in the tube for 2 minutes.

i ended 2022 by checking something off my bucket list and im glad i did! lovely staff here at the NJ location and it was a lot of fun! you can buy photos and videos after your session. they have a gift shop with some nice sweatshirts. i wont lie i had a tough time getting elevated its the kind of thing that makes sense until you do it! i would try again definitely lol. some people take to instructions naturally, i do not.

One of the unique adventurous experience spots in Bergen county. The indoor skydiving encompasses 1 min each, zero gravity flying with instructor, for two runs, with wind passing around ~100 mph, making you float in the air. The process starts with buying #of flights online. We signed our waiver form online beforehand and arrived 20 mins prior to our scheduled time. We were taken temperature at the entrance, then sent straight to the main area where the flights take place. We were given instructions to put our suit right around our scheduled start time. We watched a short do and don'ts video to get prepared for the flight. Then we were lined for our actual flight. We got to do two runs of 1 min each. The instructor is with you throughout the flight, and also takes you 20 ft in the air if you buy the high flight, an add-on on top of regular flight ($19.99 each). When you are inside the wind tunnel, it takes few seconds to learn the positioning of your arms and legs. At the end of your flight iFly provides you a certificate for indoor skydiving session. Pics and videos are available on their website for purchase. The staff and instructors are really friendly and constantly helping everyone thought out the experience. Overall I felt it was a great 1.5 hours spent doing something totally new. But personally I didn't find the indoor skydiving as thrilling as I had imagined it to be.

Truly had fun time here. I did not know what to expect. the instructor Miguel def explained and prepared us well before entering the tube. If you have neck injury, DO NOT do it. It's pretty stressful on the neck. You can download videos and pictures later (extra charge but pretty cheap).

The instructors basically made the whole experience. I had previously gone to the Orlando location while on vacation, but wanted to try one close to home. Making a reservation was quick and easy. Although pricey it was a great experience my kids won't forget. The instructors were really nice, funny, enthusiastic & explained everything really well to my 5 & 10 year old. It's refreshing to meet people who love what they do and are enthusiastic about creating an experience for people. Great staff!!! Would recommend this location!!

My BF took me here as a surprise for our anniversary and it was definitely a nice (and interesting) surprise. We were booked for 7:30 pm on a Saturday for two flights, which includes a high flight. This means that on the second flight, your instructor will take you up to 14 feet. Don't worry, an instructor is with you at all times for both flights, and they show you exactly what you need to do before the flights. They provide the suits, helmets, and goggles. You just need to make sure you're not wearing any loose items that can come off (i.e. jewelry, watches, flip flops, etc.) Since our time slot was at 7:30, we thought we would be in and out by 8. However, we didn't finish until past 9. It was a lot of waiting around since we had to wait for other groups ahead of us to finish. Each group has about 12 people, and each flight lasts 30 seconds. We waited until 8:30 until it was finally our group's turn. That being said, just make sure you're not in a hurry to go anywhere afterwards since you'll be stuck there for a while. I don't know if I would come back. It was more of a one-time experience for me, but I definitely recommend everyone to try this at least once in their life. Tip - you can't bring anything into the vessel, meaning no phones, meaning no photos (unless you have someone with you who isn't flying - they can take all the photos they want from the outside). But you can purchase a digital copy for $4.

I had an amazing experience here with my boyfriend and totally recommend trying it! Let me walk you through it. Book beforehand online to get a time slot (they have limited spots to enhance social distancing). Check in once you get there and have a seat until your group has assembled. Afterwards they gear you up, are SO nice about helping you find the right size, and then send you in to watch a video before you're in the tunnel! All of the staff wears masks, they're strict about social distancing and sanitizing, which made me feel really safe. Once in the tunnel everyone in your group takes a turn trying to balance in the air. The instructor is in there with you the entire time and makes you feel safe! They teach you exactly what to do in the video (although fair warning: it's so much easier said than done!) I highly HIGHLY recommend getting the high flight add on! ITS THE BEST PART! They take you all the way up in the tunnel and it's a really cool experience. It's fun for all ages for the record I was 24 and he was 25 when we went for this date. There was another similar age couple with us and also a few younger people as well. Our instructor was also really nice and funny! I forget his name now but it seemed like everyone there was kind! Highly recommend if you want to try something new! It is expensive but I think it's a cool experience to have.

I bought the 3 minute flight for my husband's birthday (the high fly was free because of his bday). Our instructor was Andrew and he was the bomb! He was patient and fun, and totally skilled at what he does. I would absolutely recommend this experience - it's the perfect gift for any adventure seeker. And personally I thought the two 1.5 min sets with a 30 second high fly during the second set was perfect as the viewer. You can take video and photos of them, so bring a friend so they can take them of you.

My boyfriend took me here for my birthday. I was booked for the 2 flight + high flight. Originally booked for 10:30AM, we arrived at 10 and asked if they can take us earlier and they did! The experience was very, very cool. You watch a short video and the instructor teaches us hand signals to look out for. Before you know it, you're in the tube flying! just think it's extremely expensive to only be in the air for 2 minutes (each flight is by 1 minute). I'm sure that's a big misconception when coming here. I originally thought I'd be in the air for a good few minutes. I would definitely come back and do this again, though. They offered a really good discount if we booked another flight for a later date right after our flight, but we don't live near the area, so unfortunately, we could not take the offer. They offer a 10% military discount which is always greatly appreciated. We love supporting businesses that offer this!

Me

The employees were very nice and knowledgeable. I didn't like the Nicole and dime routine. I paid to fly now it's 20$ a person to fly higher. You can fly for 1 minute . It is the fastest minute ever.and then it's 8 dollars for photos . I paid around 250$ for four minutes. The helmets they give you to wear smelled like funky feet/ corn chips. It was a nice experience I'd consider spending 250$ elsewhere.

Extremely fun. Tommy turbo was amazing.
Christine P.

Fun night out with the family. Got to experience what it's like skydiving for one minute. Once you get over your fear you want to do it over and over again. Shout out to Tommy turbo he was amazing. Thank you for the experience.

Nothing which says it's a height requirement just a requirement!!!

They made the planning and the party so easy & stress-free,I am so grateful! Now for the details:. I was nervous about not being able to taste test the food. Being a foodie and all. The food was amazing right from the start. Cocktail hour right into dinner. Everything was delicious. Chicken Franchise, penne Vodka, mash potatoes, (to die for), we also opted for Sushi which was outstanding! And so much food!! I can't say enough about the staff, DJ, Emcee, photographers, they all were just amazing! And for the pricing to be bundled into a package makes the whole process a breeze. The room set up, the vibe, and all the monogram things that were available for us to chose from, made it a one stop shop and the room looked amazing. It's was an amazing time and so much fun !!!

He was very communicative--even with the 13 hour time difference, I was able to coordinate with him easily. I had my husband be taken out of the house three hours before the party to set up... the balloon arch was delivered right on time. The photographer showed up half an hour earlier than the party. The magician I wanted to hire was booked somewhere else and I only found out a few days before, but the balloon sculpture artist Mark recommended instead was an absolute hit with the kids as well as the adults, which was a pleasant surprise. He made my husband the most outrageous birthday hat. Right when he was supposed to be done, one of the kids tripped and popped his balloons and got upset, and he stayed longer to make him (and a few other stragglers) more balloons. Truly kind. The photographer David was also really so helpful, friendly, and on it! He came early and helped with some of the set up... he was attentive and also very nice to talk to. Very natural (sometimes it's awkward when a photographer's in your face taking pictures but it wasn't awkward at all). We got a USB full of pictures right after the party! Really, what a great experience. My husband had a really great time. Thank you Mark and company!

We hit it off the first time we met at his New York office, and we knew we would have a great time working with him. From the beginning, he tried to understand our overall vision and aesthetic for the wedding. He gave us great suggestions for how to transform a hotel conference room into a really beautiful, opulent space (which he did!). He draped the entire room in white flowy fabric and put hundreds of candles in the one floor-to-ceiling window wall of the room. He found these amazing gold candlestick holders for our high centerpieces which ended up looking phenomenal. He and his staff were great on the day of the wedding and got everything where it needed to be on time both at the church and at the hotel. The ballroom was set up beautifully, and we were in awe of the transformation. Mitch was really patient with the many, many questions and requests my wife and I had over the months leading up to the wedding, and he didn't try to oversell us on things we didn't want or need. He has an easy, relaxed manner that puts you at ease. We felt very comfortable that he and his team would deliver. And they absolutely did. Just look at the pictures :) Thanks Mitch!
