You've got to see the latest hoverboard prototype!

We have all seen the videos of flyboards powered by water jets sweeping the internet and the newest invention looks even cooler

You've got to see the latest hoverboard prototype!

The new prototype from former French jet ski champion Franky Zapata was tested over Barcelona's Old Harbour.

Water jets have been replaced with four jet turbine engines.

This development means that pilots can travel 3000m high and up to 150km/h.

Zapata recently broke the record for the farthest flight by hoverboard, travelling 2.2km at an average speed of 50-60km/h.

While it won't be on the market anytime soon - we can't wait to see how it develops.
