As many of you know, Freebord’s founder Steen Strand has been working on a new project, Icon Aircraft. The Icon A5 is an amphibious light sport aircraft for the baller flying enthusiast. They took their prototype for its first test flight just last week – check out the video, it’s totally boss…
From the Icon website:
The sport is back in flying…
ICON’s sport aircraft are not only designed to deliver an amazing and safe flying experience, but also to inspire us the way great sports cars do. After years of development with some of the world’s best aerospace engineers and industrial designers, ICON Aircraft has released the first of its line of sport planes, the ICON A5. The A5 is a bold yet elegant design that communicates beauty, performance, safety, and most importantly… fun.

COO ballin’ it!
Haha.
Steen is a genius.
TOTALLY BOSS?
Steen is like the Tony fuckin Danza of inventing shit!
wayyy tight… I was just thinking on the portability thing though… why don’t the wings fold up? Then you could TRUELY drive that thing anywhere as if it was a boat!
To me it almost kills the purpose that the wings don’t retract.
They do Kris
that is very very cool
The perfect tool to find out new spots from the air!
I want one! lol
looks soo slick!
