It would be wonderful to have the power of flight, but once you take-off, wouldn’t you be a bit nervous about the landing? There’s no worries of that sort with flyboarding, which is one of the latest extreme sports to “take off” in recent years - you’ll be tumbling down for a soft landing in the water. If you’ve been to the coast recently you may have seen flyboarding in action - quite simply your feet are strapped to a board, and then a high-powered jet blasts you several feet into the sky, where you can hover and pull tricks to the amazement of those watching from the beach.
This Amsterdam gift experience actually takes place in the waterways of the city rather than on the beach, making it super-convenient for day-trippers or weekend getaways that need a bit of zing. Professional instructors will ensure you’re picking up the basics straightaway, and if you’re able to hover upright steadily, they’ll even show you how to pull a few tricks. Don’t expect to become a master in just one lesson, but if you want to try an exciting new watersport then this may just hook you.
