Alex Ovechkin is currently vacationing in Turkey with his family and friends and he’s having a blast. From playing charades with a blow-up doll to wearing matching outfits with Ovi Jr., Ovechkin’s having another oustanding summer.
Sunday, Ovechkin took his summer escape more literally, by trying to fly away while flyboarding.
Unsatisfied with merely skating on top of ice, NHL superstar Alex Ovechkin has turned to hovering high above a body of water. Sunday, Ovechkin and his fiancee Nastya Shubskaya posted media from their latest escapade while on summer vacation: flyboarding!
An aquatic cousin of the jetpack, the French-made flyboard propels a rider into the air by shooting out water from tubes underneath their feet. A long fire hose connects the board to a jet ski, which powers the board and sends the person, in this case a future Hall of Fame hockey player, soaring up to 20 feet into the air.
