Water skiing is both a recreational activity and a competitive sport enjoyed by many throughout the UK. It typically begins with a deep water start, with the skier crouching down in the water. When the skier is ready, the driver accelerates the boat to pull the skier out of the water.
Water skiing can help to improve your strength. Getting out onto the water and leaving your stresses on the shore can also be great for your mental health.
A typical session will cost from £10 – £25 per half hour depending on where you go and whether you take advantage of coaching, which is recommended for beginners. You should be able to borrow any specialised equipment from the club or provider in the first instance.
You’ll need to bring swimwear and shower stuff along to your first session, but the rest of the equipment like wetsuit, buoyancy aid and skis should be provided for you.
