Did this a few months ago in New Orleans as part of a bachelor party. It was pretty awesome. The only bad thing was one of the guys had a concussion and I'm pretty sure we all got cancer from Lake Pontchartrain, but it was definitely a great value. Everyone should try it.

An example of flyboarding:

yeah, I went out there with Tony a couple of times. (the guy you flyboarded with if you went to Nola Flyboarding) It's fun, and after you get the balance part down it isn't hard at all.

The water really isn't that bad, lol.

Yeah. Did it with NOLA Flyboarding. Tony is nuts and his partner is even crazier, but it's fun since you just bring all of your own booze onto the pontoon boat and take turns on the flyboard.

You can buy a board and the parts for $6k and another $2,600 for the controls so you can control the height yourself, and not the person on the jet ski.
(in the rentals the person on the jet ski controls your flight, you really just try and balance and move around)

I did it in Melbourne. It's a blast and a lot easier than you'd think to learn.

That pontoon boat was on the fritz. Nearly sank. They put all of their money into the flyboard/jet ski as they should.
