    Water ski

    is similar to the alpine ski, but much more easy and fun.
    Beginners will find themselves standing up on 2 skis enjoying a circuit of the bay in no time.
    The surface area of the ski keeps the person skimming on the the water allowing the skier to stand upright while holding the tow rope. Water-ski is the most famous water activity in Greece and a memorable experience for young children.

    Water monoski

    is the evolution of double ski to a more aggressive racing ski.
    In Monoski, the feet are tied up one in front of the other, in only one ski. Very high speeds with extreme slanting positions are reached, creating an incredible feeling and incredible pictures.

    Barefoot ski

    is water skiing without the use of water skis.
    Barefooting requires the skier to travel at higher speeds than conventional water skiing.

    Lessons



    Water skiing is a fun and easy activity for all ages. It's easier than you think...
    Beginners can easily become good skiers with 3 το 5 lessons.

  • Wakeboarding in Paros Cyclades

    Boardsports: Available every day, all day long
    Suitable for : Snowboarders and surfers
    Locations: Faragas Beach and Punda Beach

    Wakeboarding

    is a combination of water skiing, snowboarding and surfing. Wake board resembles a surfboard used to ride over water while being pulled behind a motorboat. Instead of skis, the boarder uses a single board with bindings. Wakeboards are shorter in length than snowboards and slightly wider. Jumps and tricks can be performed by hitting the wake and launching to the air.

    At

    Wakesurfing

    the surfer trails behind the motorboat, surfing on the boat's wake. The wake from the boat mimics the look and feel of an actual ocean wave. After getting up on the wave by use of a tow rope, wakesurfers drop the rope and ride the steep face below the wave's peak in a fashion reminiscent of ocean surfing.

    Lessons



    As a beginner, wakeboarding lessons are essential to learn about the basics, such as:
    Stance , bindings placement , deep water starts , switch-stance start , crossing , jumping the wake .
    If you are familiar with these you can take lessons to learn the beginners tricks:
    Surf the wave , surface hop , sideslide , surface 360 .
    A few basic fundamentals are the keys to all tricks. Once you master them, any move is possible...
