The Invention
It was in the autumn of 2012 when a brilliant French man named Franky Zapata invented a device that would awe the whole world. The Flyboard quickly became the most beloved toy for water sports enthusiasts after its unveiling. Zapata made sure he got the patent of his brilliant invention and since then has made millions from selling his invention around the globe.
And you can try this brilliant invention in your city too. Just rent a Flyboard at Crosslake Brainerd, MN, go out there and have some fun.
The Inception
As revolutionary as it sounds, but Zapata wasn’t the first man to invent water propulsion flight device. A Canadian man named Raymond Li came up with the idea back in 2004. He introduced the world to the first ever water propulsion jet pack called JetLev flyer.
It was a different device than a Flyboard as the user would require wearing the jet pack on the back (like a back pack) with two nozzles sticking out each shoulder side. Those downward facing nozzles would fire out the water, lifting the person in the air. However, this idea wasn’t popular because JetLev flyer was unsafe and also one unit would cost $100,000 which is astronomically expensive.
Thus, a few years later Zapata took the opportunity to improve this design and make it popular by making it cheaper. And thanks to Franky Zapata you can call us at your lake party to rent a Flyboard at Crosslake Brainerd, MN.
Zapata Industries were sued by JetLev in 2013 but the case was dropped later.
The Mechanism
A Flyboard follows a simple mechanism by sucking in the water and then pushing it out with high pressure. It takes all the thrust from the PWC (Personal Water Craft) and with the help of that thrust produces lift so the pilot can enjoy the flight. PWC is usually the Jet Ski that follows the Flyboard rider along wherever he/she goes.
The Flyboard is attached to the Jet Ski through a long water hose and a cast iron pipe bolted directly on the Jet Ski’s thrust.
The thrust of the Flyboard is controlled by the Jet Ski rider or in some cases it is controlled directly by the pilot on the Flyboard.

The Sport
Flyboard was introduced to the world in 2012 at Jet Ski world championship in China by Franky Zapata. Just after that every water sport enthusiast wondered for the day when would this phenomenal invention be qualified as an official sport. It didn’t take long as the very first world championship for Flyboard took place later the same year of its launch in 2012 in Doha, Qatar.
Since then there have been annual world championship sports for the flyboarding all around the world as it has cemented its place as an official international water sport.
