WE'RE OPEN! TWO GREAT LOCATIONS ON LAKE ULLSWATER

ABOUT WAKESURFING

Wakesurfing is an off-shoot of wakeboarding. 

It's a surface watersport where a rider trails behind a boat, riding the boat's wake without being directly pulled by the boat.

After getting up on the boat's wake (normally by use of a tow rope) wakesurfers then drop the rope and 'surf' the wake waves.

Wakesurfing uses special boards, designed specifically for wakes.
