JET STARS ON A HIGH

- KATE PARASKEVOS

IT sounds like a futuristic competitio­n – but it’s real.

And there is still a chance to watch the action in the flesh.

The Internatio­nal Hydrofligh­t Tour Series is taking place at Sanctuary Cove and has brought together the best jetpack, jetboard and jetbike athletes from around the world.

With competitor­s from America, Canada, the Maldives, Bermuda, Russia and the Czech Republic, five Aussies – Rhys Barnes, Bridget Burt, Dillon Jacombs, Matt Stubbs and Jake Jones – competed in the series, earning points which are tallied towards a final event to be held in Bermuda later in the year.

The Poseidon Games conclude at Sanctuary Cove today.
