The perfect way to learn to waterski is offered with this cable tow waterskiing workshop in Bucks. Learning to water ski on the cable tow means you have plenty of time to practice your starts and how to stay upright as you go round the corners!

This watersports centre is one of the newest cable wakeboard and water-ski centres in the UK, set in 180 acres of landscaped parkland, with ample parking and facilities for all the family, it is a great place to learn to ride the water.

A cable tow uses a network of cables to pull riders around a circuit. It's a similar arrangement to a snow based ski lift, except you go round in a continuous loop - after a little practice! The benefits of the cable system means it can operate without the limitations of boats, fuel, wind or surf. Wakeboarding is also available on this cable system and at the same venue.

The cable speed can be varied to provide easy conditions for beginners, or more challenging rides for the experienced. With expert tutors on hand to guide you, you should be whizzing round the circuit by the end of your session!

Your session will last approximately two hours and includes wetsuits, equipment and expert tuition. More than one rider will use the cable simultaneously, each one spaced around the circuit. If a rider falls and is in the path of others the cable is stopped.


Courses run 0930 - 1130 on Saturdays and Sundays from March to October.
