Swoop is a unique 200m zip wire slide starting from the roof of the Bodyflight wind tunnel and stretching right out to the edge of the business park Bodyflight is on.
A very steep slide, riders will reach speeds in excess of 35mph before slowing down rapidly in time to gently touch down on the ground at the end.
This is a great adrenaline activity for kids – both young and old! Swoop is also the perfect addition to your day out to the site, and can be done after your indoor skydiving or Flow boarding session.
So what happens on the day?
Once you arrive you will check in at reception where you fill in your paperwork before meeting your instructor. You are then given a harness and safety equipment before following your instructor to the lift which takes you and your group to the top floor of the Bodyflight tower.
From here you then climb a ladder to reach the roof where you can enjoy the beautiful views over the Bedfordshire valley.
You are then clipped on to the wire by your harness and make your way to the platform edge. All you need to do then is sit down in your harness so that the rope takes your weight and step off!
As you slide down the zip wire you will build speeds in excess of 35mph before rapidly slowing down at the bottom of the wire. Here a second instructor will unclip you so that you can watch the rest of your group follow you down.
