Berlin Wakeboarding

You're planning a Berlin stag do but just because you're in alandlocked country doesn't mean you can't get stuck into some water sports.

Water skiing is a fantastic activity for a stag do in Berlin. Relatively easy to pick up, it's one of those sports that practically guarantees you a ride on your first go. Just remember to lean back and let the cable do the work, and you'll be up and riding in no time.

Wakeboarding is significantly harder, and may be suitable only for experienced water users. Unlike water skiing, which you can do in a straight line, wakeboarding works on the same principle as surfing. To keep the board flowing through the water, you'll need to carve from side to side.

A wakeboard has sharp edges, which cut into the wake created by the towing craft. These edges make the board manoeuvrable, but they also make it trickier to handle. Listen carefully to your instructor, and use your weight to control the tightness of the tow cable.

Water sports are an epic way to destroy hangovers! If you've been partying hard in Friedrichshain or Lichtenberg, the fresh air and spray are your one-way ticket to feeling better again. And the rush you get from pulling off a sick move on your skis or wakeboard will make it worth the trip.
