Martin Lavoie of Ontario Flyboard demonstrates the water sport at Petrie Island Beach while Daniel Lafleur pilots the personal watercraft.
It’s the closest thing you can get to flying short of strapping a rocket to your back and it’s called flyboarding.
The premise of the new-ish water sport is simple; take the water propulsion power from a personal watercraft like a Sea-Doo and funnel it through a long hose to a pair of boots attached to a board. What you get is a high-flying adrenaline rush that can send riders nearly 15 m up in the air where a simple twist of the ankle or bend in the knee will send them into spins, backflips and dolphin-like dives into the water.
Martin Lavoie of Ontario Flyboard was out at Petrie Island Beach on Thursday evening offering anyone a free chance to try it out.
“It’s like being Iron Man. You’re flying over the water,” says Lavoie.
“You don’t need any special physique or special talent to do flyboard, it’s very easy. We have a certified instructor on the Sea-Doo that keeps the rider at a comfortable height.”
Anyone interested in taking flight can try a free session at Petrie Island Beach on Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
