My husband and I both tried out Alberta Flyboard today at Wabamun Lake. We each did a half hour session where my husband built on his existing experience and I learned how to flyboard as a beginner.
For those who don't know what flyboarding is, check out Alberta Flyboard's website. The instructor was fun, and it wasn't like one of those activities where you spend a lot of time listening to a big lesson before you actually get to do anything... I learned in the water. For someone who is athletically challenged, I managed to get up within the first 5 minutes, and became fairly stable within the first 15. The last 15 minutes was spent trying to maintain height and spend time "flying" around!
If you go more than once, they are more than willing to teach you different moves, which could be fun in the future.
I would highly recommend this activity to those looking for something different to do in the Edmonton area... there's nothing quite like it!
They also have locations at Sylvan Lake, Jackfish Lake and Cold Lake. Give them a call! read more
