The sea lifts and you rise—first a wobble, then a clean arc above Dubai’s glass-and-sand skyline as seawater roars beneath the board. In a 30-minute flyboard session at Popeye Jetski you trade the deck for the air, strapped to a Zapata Racing sport flyboard and guided by an instructor who trims throttle and tension so you can learn to hover, spin and skim.
