International Bodyflight Association (IBA) is one of the world’s leading organizations in the promotion of Indoor Skydiving as a Sport and for the engagement of tunnel flyers and operators.

IBA has developed a standardized progression path to help flyers to develop their flight skills safely. Every skill is presented with a demonstration video and detailed learning points.

Teaching techniques could slightly differ in tunnels that follow other instructional systems, we always suggest to ask to an instructor at your local tunnel or to your coach for your best progression.
