Jetpacking
If you grew up in the late ‘90’s and early 2000’s, and are anything like me, Jimmy Neutron was probably one of your favourite shows. From wanting a robot dog, to machines that sort through our wardrobes, and even help us brush our teeth, life as an average IQ kid couldn’t be more monotonous if I tried. Thankfully, all of that changed when I discovered Ola Beach Club’s motorized jetpacks!
This 45-minute Ola Jetpack experience is the coolest activity in water sports, today! Featuring a water-propelled jetpack, with the capacity to elevate you up to 30 feet in the air, this activity is extremely safe and fun, thanks to the club’s strict safety protocols. As the jetpack utilizes controlled water pressure technology, all participants of the Ola Jetpack will need to be at least 16 years of age, with no pre-existing medical or physical condition. Participants will also need to be at least 45kg and no more than 100kg, for safety precaution.
Despite the club’s precise safety advisories, no experience is needed for this activity, and all guests will be granted the comfort of certified instructor training and constant supervision by the team.
Located along 46 Siloso Beach Walk, Sentosa, the Ola Beach Club encourages advanced booking, and is contactable via 6265 5966 or sports@olabeachclub.com. Same-day tickets may also be purchased at any one of Sentosa’s innumerable ticketing counters –
