DEFY Extreme Air Sports announced May 20 that it will open a second Henrico location June 15.

Its newest indoor adventure and recreation facility will take the spot vacated by Boomerang Air Sports at 205 Towne Center West Boulevard, adjacent to Short Pump Town Center. DEFY already operates three other Virginia locations, including one at 10087 Brook Road in Glen Allen, near Virginia Center.

The new location will feature massive trampolines and a variety of other activities, according to company officials. It also will offer a membership program called "Flight Club" that allows unlimited jump time every day and access to member-only events and perks.

"This latest park in Short Pump is coming just in time for summer adventures," said Bradford Smith, vice president of Franchise Development for DEFY. "Between our fun and active summer programs, to our membership opportunities, our suite of awesome attractions—and powerful air conditioning—we're confident this new DEFY is going to meet and exceed your family's needs.”

DEFY Short Pump will be open Sunday through Thursday from 9 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Friday and Saturday from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m.

It will join a growing group of similar facilities in the county and region. Surge Richmond opened last fall at Regency mall, and shortly thereafter, Urban Air Adventure Park announced plans to locate in Henrico, as well.
