Flyboarding -- the newest extreme water sport to hit the Gulf Coast! Orange Beach Flyboard currently operates out of Bear Point Marina in Orange Beach, AL. What is flyboarding, you ask? A flyboard is similar to a wakeboard. It is a water accessory that you stand on that is mounted to your feet. What makes flyboarding even better than a wakeboard, however, is that underneath the flyboard are two jets that can propel you 30-40 feet into the air! The way it works is the flyboard is connected to a personal watercraft (Waverunner) by a 55 foot hose which gives it power through it's jet discharge allowing the flyboard to propel you through the air like Iron Man or dip you in and out of the water like a dolphin! Don't worry, though. You, the flyboarder, are in complete control of navigation. By simply tilting your feet in different directions, you will control the direction and movement of the flyboard. It's that simple! The WaveRunner operator is only in control of the throttle. While you are navigating the flyboard like a pro, the WaveRunner operator will simply follow you so that you have the freedom to go anywhere you please.No experience is needed to enjoy the thrill of flyboarding; our staff will teach you everything you need to know to operate it safely. Most catch on within 5-10 minutes. This is something anyone can do! At Orange Beach Flyboard our number one goal is safety, our second goal is FUN. Flyboarding is a sport you don't want to miss out on. Call us today and we will introduce you to the most exciting water sport in town!
