Frequently asked question about Water skiing

How do you learn to water ski?
Before you really start with water skiing, you can gain experience with a Kneeboard, you can already get started with the technique of real water skiing while kneeboarding. The best way to learn to water ski is at a cable park. This way you can still work on your technique on the side between learning.
How many cable parks are there in the Netherlands?
The Netherlands has 15 cable parks. With a length of between 600 and 1500 meters, a cable forms a large loop, which is attached to a number of masts along the course. The cable is pulled by an electric motor. The speed and length of the cable ski runs can vary. For example, some cable cars can increase speeds of up to 58 kilometers per hour. The speed is adjusted per water ski type (water ski, wakeboarding, etc.). For example, a speed with a wakeboard at more than 40 kilometers per hour is hardly possible. With a single water ski, however, speeds of up to 58 kilometers per hour are doable.
What is the recommended age to learn to water ski?
Depending on their aptitude and skill in swimming, children can start water skiing as early as seven or eight years old. Expect much lower speeds than adults, usually between 15 and 20 kilometers per hour.
Where can you water ski in the Netherlands?
In the Netherlands you can waterski or wakeboard at various locations, on some Dutch inland waterways you can waterski or wakeboard behind a boat. There are also a number of so-called 'cable parks' in the Netherlands where you are pulled over the water by means of a kind of cable car. The Netherlands has 15 such 'cable parks'.
Which is more difficult, water skiing or wakeboarding?
It is said that water skiing is generally a bit easier to master than wakeboarding. But if you are an experienced snowboarder or kitesurfer, wakeboarding will not be a problem for you. You can make more speed with water skiing, while wakeboarding makes it easier to do tricks

With a good speed you skim over the water. If you don't pay attention, you will fall down, resulting in a refreshing dive. Once you've mastered waterskiing, you can enjoy the speed and maybe even try some tricks!
