Jason “Ghostrider” Maloney from Toronto was in Cobourg on Monday, April 2, 2018 taking to the skies on his kite hydro plan board in Lake Ontario.

Maloney said numerous times during the day he soared to a height of 10 metres, but his highest jump since getting a piece of technology that straps to his board has been 21.1 metres.
