A sport that has it all – a great family sport that comes in a variety of flavours ...

Water skiing and Wakeboarding is both a recreational activity and a competitive sport. The majority of British Water Ski & Wakeboard's members ski or ride for fun and to keep fit. They may participate by skiing on two skis, one ski, riding a wakeboard or a kneeboard, barefoot, or other means of keeping afloat!  The majority ski or ride at clubs or cable centres and ski schools affiliated to British Water Ski & Wakeboard, but there are also many who ski or ride on the sea or estuaries or rivers with no formal club structure. Our policy is to promote water skiing and wakeboarding as much as possible through clubs who can then control the activity and make sure it is carried out safely and with respect for other water users.
