HOW OUR CABLE PARK WORKS
Overhead pulleys and cables with wakeboard ropes and handles attached tow riders along. We have helmets available for hire that have two-way radios so riders can communicate with instructors for on the spot coaching providing quicker results, aswell as peace-of-mind for parents and the less confident.
GROUP WAKEBOARDING
Group Cable Wakeboarding is $300 an hour for a private booking. Minimum booking is for 1 hour.
This includes 1 staff member – 1 side of Cable Park, 1 to 1 coaching for each rider.
This also includes hire equipment such as life jackets, helmets and wakeboard.
Generally 5 – 6 people would work for a 1 hour booking as people generally have a 10 min ride.
To inquire or make a booking, please email: info@backpaddocklakes.co.nz including:
  • How many hours you are after and
  • Time & date ideas – please suggest a few as we have limited staff available. Then We will check our calendar and see what we can make happen for you.
Cable wakeboarding is a real hit and can be booked as a stand-alone experience for groups or as an add-on with other activities on and off the water. With our two cable systems people can choose to ride on the beginner cable or for the more experienced young daredevils, on the advanced cable course.*
