Spendthrift and Businessman Edward Kyeyune better known as Ed Cheune is set to acquire a fly board, the first ever in Uganda.
He was seen in Dubai recently testing the board before bringing it to Ugandan waters.
A fly board is a water-powered machine on which a rider stands and can fly meters high in the air.
Water is forced under pressure to a pair of boots with jet nozzles underneath which provide thrust for the rider to fly up to 15 m (49 ft) in the air.
It is a bolt-on device that is attached to a personal water craft. It is designed so that the PWC follows behind the rider’s trail, allowing the rider multiple degrees of freedom, even allowing the rider to go underwater if they desire.
Cheune, known for introducing many stylish objects in Uganda like the hover board, will be the first Ugandan to acquire the board.
“He is bringing it to Ugandan waters very soon,” a source informed this website.
He intends to spend over UGX 100m on the entire package.
Upon acquisition, the fly board will join Cheune’s set of posh property that include a fleet of multi-million cars and many more.
