Jet ski racer and son soar over water with 'flying attachment'

SANDIA, Texas, July 22 (UPI) -- A group of jet ski racers in Texas showed off their homemade "flying attachment" that helped a rider and his son hover above the waves.

The video, filmed July 4 in Sandia, shows a man using the DIY jet ski "flying attachment" to soar several feet above the water with his son on his back.

The filmer said the builder, a professional jet ski racer, created the the attachment after seeing similar projects in action online.

The filmer said the attachment works better than commercially available devices and has plenty of power to lift both the man and his son "without any problem."
