Flyboard 100% emotion and adrenaline

Cristiano Perseu tries it out of curiosity over 7 years ago and ...

In 2014 the flyboard arrives on the Costa Smeralda

But how does the flyboard work?

The Flyboard uses the hydrojet of a jet ski to which it is connected via a hose. It allows the user enough propulsion to lift themselves off the surface of the water. The

it is worn thanks to two wakeboard-type boots which are fixed to the board.

Cristiano Perseu is a true champion. His love for this discipline was born in Australia in 2013, when he was there on holiday. In addition to the different types of jumps (which everyone does), he specializes in double and triple loops, and also spectacular elevations. Naturally, with all this he creates one-of-a-kind live shows, which have made him famous throughout Italy and abroad.

Flyboarding is a sport unlike any other

It is a sport born over ten years ago, but in Italy it is still little known. In particular it is exciting and different from all other water sports. It's a kind of mixture between snowboarding, water skiing and traditional skiing. The Flyboard is nothing more than a mini board attached to special boots that receive the upward thrust. Especially thanks to a powerful water pressure operated by a jet ski.

it manages to reach a height of over nine meters above the surface of the water. Anyone who has had this experience has considerable difficulty describing it. I can summarize it all in two words: emotion and adrenaline. The Flyboard controls its movements thanks to the inclination of the foot and balance, very similar to the control of a snowboard. But the most advanced level allows you to perform acrobatic moves several meters above the water level.
