Two jets fed by a jet ski propel the board, and you with it. Once you've got the knack, you stand a few metres above the water, move forward, turn, dive into the water then rise back up. The feeling is part hovering flight, part short dive.
The briefing takes place on shore: posture, balance, and communicating with the instructor who controls the power from their jet ski. The first few minutes are about finding your position, often falling several times, which is part of the learning. Most people hold a few seconds in the air fairly quickly. The thirty-minute format leaves time to really make progress and try the rotations.
