Cable wakeboarding parks: cableways are fun, cheap and eco-friendly

Cable wakeboarding parks are spreading throughout the entire world. The overhead cableski systems are constantly being upgraded and turning wakeboarding into a cheap and accessible extreme boardsport.


The popularity of cable wakeboarding parks and camps is undeniable. There are more than 200 wakeboard cableways since the first project built in 1962, as the sport gains an Olympic boost.

The best cable wake parks are designed by architects alongside with wakeboard enthusiasts and entrepreneurs. The overall investment in a cable wakeboard system is quite low.

Many wake parks are located in near-deserted inland properties, where the prices per square foot are relatively low. After designing the circuit of water or the lake, add public-friendly facilities and get a cable system installed.

A cable wakeboarding system is quickly mounted. A few towers and carriers will suspend overhead cables, in which wake ropes will hook in to pull wakeboarders. Add creative kickers and slider and it's ready to go.

Cable wakeboarding systems are cheap to maintain and eco-friendly, too. Forget boats, fuel, regular maintenance and water cleaning. Wakeboard cableways should be tuned to meet the athlete's need in terms of speed.

Cable wakeboarding is also great for all levels of experience. It is possible to complete all tricks of the wakeboarding repertoire in these cableways. Cable wakeboarders do not get behind those who ride with boat, when it comes to pulling maneuvers. Everything is possible.

The construction of cable wake parks is increasing in all countries and the cable wakeboarding competitions, too. Where are located the best cable wakeboarding parks in the world?

The new Seals Balance Pro by EQ earplugs allow surfers to protect their ears and hear everything when wearing them.
When spring and summer start, everyone surfs more often. Also, all-year round surfers are more exposed to severe ear injuries, such as the surfer's ear (Exostosis) and swimmer's ear (Otitis). This problem can be developed after 3000 hours of cold water surfing. Neoprene hoodies and ear plugs are the best way to avoid surgery.
