Dubai, United Arab Emirates, -Tuesday 20 November 2018 [ AETOS Wire ]
Skydivers
will perform aerobatic feats in Inflight Dubai’s indoor wind tunnel on
November 24th. Ten special triathlete children will have the chance to
fly with some of the world’s best skydivers, and an additional five
special children have been invited to participate in the games
activities will fly with the skydivers during the show. VIPs and
dignitaries are expected to attend the event, which is being presented
by the Swiss Arabian Perfumes Group.
The
impressive line-up for the event includes coaches Rob Jones and Matt
Munting, David junior Ludvik in addition to Laurie Laubbe, French
freestyle skydiver; Abdulbari Qubaisi, Yemen’s first World Canopy
Champion; Nadia Adam Ali, Yemen’s first female skydiver, and her
children seven-year-old Amaan and nine-year-old Zahra; and the Inflight
Crew: Hinda; Dave; Arthur; Muzammil; Richard; and Tron.
“This
is shaping up to be one of the most dynamic events on this year's
calendar, and it’s guaranteed to put smiles on the faces of everyone
involved,” said Nadia Adam Ali.
Describing
it as ‘a gymnastics routine in the air’, Nadia explained that children
as young as three years old could start tunnel flying with the right
training and practice.
A
natural coach, Rob Jones started tunnel flying in 2007 and he prides
himself on being able to bring out the best in people. He has competed
successfully in both international vertical formation skydiving
competitions and dynamic tunnel flying. With a talent for helping people
overcome their fears, he enjoys coaching children.
Rob said, “Tunnel flying is a fun sport for everyone, but it is always the youngest flyers who most surprise me.”
Matt
Munting turned to tunnel flying while on a break from skydiving after
an accident in 2012. Matt believes in the importance of safety first; he
loves passing on his skills and his students know they are in very safe
hands. He is now a member of the Sky Dubai team, an enthusiastic
wingsuit flyer and a BASE jumper.
By
promoting cognitive, lateral and logical thinking, skydiving helps
children expand their horizons. Participants will receive a certificate
after the event.
