Flyboard of Bend

OMG, flyboarding is easily one of the most trilling experiences of my entire life. I am so glad to have found Flyboard of Bend and I absolutely cannot wait to get back out there to do this again.
My brother has been obsessed with flyboarding for over a year now after seeing a video of a group of people doing it on Youtube. And so, this year for his birthday I decided to take him to try it out for our first times.
After about 3 hours of driving we meet Jason, the owner, and Hunter his assistant down at Lake Billy Chinook. Like skydiving or anything else, the first thing we did was go over safety and a quick ground course. Then it was time to strap up and get in the water.
Jason had injured his foot and had to stay on land so Hunter took us out. He was an excellent coach. My brother went first and Hunter was able to get him flying within about 2 minutes. During his hour on the board my brother was able to change direction, turing and circling, raise and lower himself about 15 feet and even do a trick called the Orca.
My experience was very similar, although I was less successful with the Orca. The whole time though I felt like a super hero. It was seriously amazing. It was pretty cool to look around and see the audience I had gathered too. Other boaters came closer to check out what we were doing and some cars were even stopping on the road to take pictures. Did I say I felt like a Super Hero yet?
One of the other things Jason did which I though was really neat is bring a second jet ski. That way the whole time we were there, whoever wasn’t on the board was on the second jet ski. It allowed us to learn from each other and take photos/​videos. And being on a jet ski is super fun anyway.
By the way, if you have not been to Lake Billy Chinook it is beautiful. Jason seriously picked a perfect location, especially for a first time experience. It just is one more thing to make sure your time is worth while.
I would highly recommend, scratch that… it is a must do. You have to check out Flyboard of Bend. It is worth every penny and will be an unforgettable experience. And if you want to go out with a group they have 2 different setups which allows them to take 2 people out at a time.
Quick tip. Make sure you reserve at least an hour a person. Anything less and you will leave wishing you did more.
