Are you into snowboarding or skateboarding? Well then you’ll definitely be into Wakeboarding!
Wakeboarding has been around for about 20 years and is taken from water skiing. You go along sideways, like your riding a snowboard, and the aim is to use the ‘wake’ the boat makes, as it goes along, to jump and throw tricks.

Wakeboarding has spawned new sports too; wakeskating and wakesurfing are growing and becoming very popular.

Here at Tallington Lakes we have lake 2 specifically for wakeboarding. The position of the lake and the surroundings provide excellent conditions for riders of all abilities.
