As a human race, we’re obsessed with the hoverboard and recreating the 1980’s classic, Back to the Future. Well, while this apparatus is super techy, it’s the closest thing we’ve seen to Marty’s board. Franky Zapata, a former jetski racer, and Zapata Racing out of France, have developed a product called the Flyboard, which can lift riders up to 10,000 feet and reach speeds of 93 mph. It’s still in prototype phase but peeps are definitely getting somewhere with this hoverboard thing.
