Pro Rider Magazine was invited to cover the second Flyboard World Cup last week in Doha Qatar. If you have been involved in PWC racing in the past 10-20 years you know the name Franky Zapata. Franky left his mark in the PWC world with multiple Titles and World championships worldwide. His invention The Flyboard is the hottest new sport on the water.If you attended the World Finals in Havasu in October you got to see Franky rip it up on the Flyboard several times throughout the week. Franky is by far the best rider in the world, but does not compete in the World Cup as Zapata Racing is the promoter of the event.To describe the event, the phrase "First Class" is the only word to do it justice. From the picturesque event site to the 5 star host hotel, the participants were treated like rock stars during their stay in the booming city of Doha.While I could go on and on about this event, I must save it for the legit in print magazine. For now check out the top 16 bracket results, rider list and a sample of photos. Be sure to get the Jan/Feb issue of Pro Rider for full coverage of the event. Special thanks to Franky Zapata for inviting Pro Rider to attend. Check out Zapata Racing for more info. -RonnyMac
