FRANKY ZAPATA

FRANKY ZAPATA

Pushing the boundaries of what seems possible and inspiring individuals to make their dreams come true are all part of the ZENITH DNA. Just like Louis Bleriot before him, whose earlier flight attempts had earned him the nickname “the king of wrecks” before finally succeeding in crossing the English Channel 1909, every flight allows Franky Zapata to improve his craft and bring him one step closer to fulfilling his vision. Born in Marseille in 1978, entrepreneur, inventor, top athlete and flying man Franky Zapata initially dreamed of flying on water. Combined with Zapata’s athletic prowess is an indomitable pioneering spirit, along with an unwavering commitment to helping thrill-seekers and city slickers alike reach for the stars.

Today barely bigger than a large drone, and driven by means of “mass transfer”, like a Segway, the Flyboard Air is propelled by five mini jet engines allowing it some ten minutes of flying time prior to requiring refueling. It is driven by means of a handheld joystick to adjust the thrust.
