flyboard

Hydro-powered hoverboard

A flyboard is a water-powered personal watercraft that attaches to the rider's feet and propels them into the air using jet streams from a connected watercraft below.

The rider stands on the board and can hover, dive, or perform aerial maneuvers above the water surface: He did backflips on his flyboard.

The term also works as a verb: We went flyboarding in Cancun.
