Flyboard is a french invention of racing driver Frank Zapata, who has spent several years designing and developing the product. This is a board similar to a wake board, where a special hose is attached to high pressure, and connected to the jet ski turbine, which starts working as a water pump. The turbine does not drive the jet forward. Through the hose connected to it, water is led under the board and forced down through the outlet ducts installed.
 

The water jet directed downwards propels passenger up or in the direction he or she wishes, as the direction to be taken is opposite to the jet direction, which is controlled by the passenger with movements similar to a skate. The hose range is ten meters, limiting raised height, even for safety, because depending on the jet power, it would go much higher, since it does not use all its power.
 

In a more practical comparison, it can be said that the flyboard is like a ski or skate. Although your feet stay on a fixed platform and do not separate, in flight, your body protrudes for the front and it's possible to makes turns on your own axis. It's a real air surf.
 

To pilot is simple. With the correct orientation, anyone can use and, with little time of practice, you can walk, or even fly!
 

Its use does not require a large area, it is not designed to cover distances, but to maneuver in a small space, which has a minimum depth suitable for practice.
 

A LITTLE OF FLYBOARD HISTORY IN THE WORLD

Flyboard was created in France, in 2011, by the french racing driver Frank Zapata. In Brazil, carioca and adventurer Thiago Caldas is one of the pioneers of radical sports:
 

"I risked it all in a very expensive toy, which I had no idea what it could provide for my life. I was called crazy for many people. Today, after a lot of sweat, we are managing to innovate and connect more and more people to sports and nature, always in total safety and with maximum professionalism", he says.
