Wakeboarding by from Red Letter Days
Wakeboarding is a sport so cool that lots of people have yet to learn about it. In fact it's the fastest growing watersport in the country. It's like a cross between water-skiing, snowboarding and surfing. You're pulled across the water by hanging onto a cable, but unlike water-skiing, you're attached to a single wide board and it's also a bit slower. So it's perfect for anyone who wants to try a new sport and doesn't mind getting wet! After a full safety briefing, you'll be on the water and round the cable. Start off knee-boarding which will help you get to grips with the basics and put the theory into practice. Once you get to grips with the challenge of turning corners, expect to be riding high.
