Season Specials
The Beginner Package
3 lessons a season for beginners to intermediate – For the average person who doesn’t have the chance to ride very often 3 lessons a season will ensure that those moments that you are riding behind the boat will be in the most enjoyable as you will eliminate those hard falls by knowing the technique you are working towards. 3 lessons per season will make sure you don’t slip into bad habits, which is the most regressive problem you will face when learning. $260 That's $25 off!!!
The Intermediate Rider
5 lessons a season for intermediate to advanced. This will give you time between each lesson to perfect each drill behind your own boat. The bad habits won’t come anywhere near your bag of tricks and each time you get behind the boat it will be all about taking steps forward. Most of our regulars who average 3 weekends a month of wakeboarding over summer, have this amount of lessons per season. $300 That's $150 off!!!
The Advanced Rider
20 lessons a season for those who want to advance quickly – 20 lessons in a season will ensure that you are riding in the most progressive and rewarding manner. This is designed to have you riding out of your comfort zone and to push your riding to a place that you never thought you would be possible. The winner?

Do I need to bring my own gear?
