Wakeboarding at a Cable Versus Behind the Boat

Wakeboarding at a Cable Versus Behind the Boat

Whether you’re a veteran boat rider who hasn’t felt the unique pull of a cable before, or you’re just getting started with the sport of wakeboarding, we want to clue you in on some differences between the cable park and the boat. Both are a blast, so stay tuned to learn a little more about each.

If you haven’t wakeboarded at a cable park before, it’s a pull like no other. Here’s the setup: A network of towers high above the water suspend a cable that moves around in a circle or rectangle. That cable has multiple ropes attached with handles at the end. Wakeboarders line up at the starting dock and wait for their turn to ride, and after a few minutes the cable is full of wakeboarders carving, hitting rails and booting off kickers. Sounds like fun right? It is.

Outdoor Activities South Florida

South Florida is a paradise of sun and tropical weather with barely a rainy day in the forecast, so it’s only natural to get outside and enjoy some outdoor activities. One of the best outdoor activities in South Florida is watersports. Cool off while you play and challenge your skills with your watersport of choice at Ski Rixen, America’s first cable park.

What is a cable park? It combines the best parts of towed watersports without the expense and hassle of a boat. Instead, a line high above your head attaches to a handle and takes you silently across the water so you can wakeboard, kneeboard, wakeskate, waterski and slalom ski in South Florida’s refreshing waters. Ride single and challenge your friends with ramps and rail slides, or ride doubles and see who falls first. It’s a blast.
