# Flyboard Air Hoverboard Can Soar Up to 10,000-Feet in the Air

French jet ski champion Franky Zapata’s Flyboard Air, which has been in development for over 4-years, is unlike any other hoveboards you’ve seen on the market, as it can soar up to 10,000-feet and hit a top speed of 95mph. It’s controlled via joystick hard-wired to the base, and powered by miniature jet turbines. Despite being a prototype, it carried Zapata well over a 1-mile up the coast of France, setting a Guinness World Record in the process. The Flyboard Air recently made an appearance in Barcelona, Spain during the Challengers 16 event.
