This one gives instruction on how to operate. I can see lots danger in this device. Pretty cool though.

Looks like fun, but I agree, it looks dangerous. How do you keep the fly boarder guy from falling down on top of the jet ski operator?

It would be entertaining to watch someone learn that sport.

I was rather surprising to see someone doing this today in the Weirs channel, heading from Paugus towards the bridge. This was right in the narrow area by Thurston's! Not terribly smart in my book, particularly as the 'flyer' took a few headers as he went along.

I still say it could be useful in putting out boat or even house fires with a long enough hose. You could fly right over the roof....
