WAKEBOARDING PRIVATE LESSON


Whether you are looking for instruction or just want to get out and ride our wakeboarding private lessons will get you out riding behind a top-of-the-line Super Air Nautique GS20 on current year Liquid Force or OBrien boards and equipment.  You can choose to wakeboard, wakesurf, or waterski during your private session. Our private lesson rates are all-inclusive with equipment, and gas, and we provide a US Coast Guard licensed driver/instructor. Our all-inclusive lesson prices are lower than most competitors' prices for renting just a boat. Bring up to 5 people for this top-quality wakeboarding experience on Mission Bay.

What Will I Learn?

Let your instructor know your goals for the day and they will be able to offer personalized instruction to help your group achieve them. No matter what level rider you are, our instructors focus on proper body positioning and technique first to ensure your progression stays consistent.

Is this the right class for me?

Whether you are looking for instruction or just want to get out and ride, our wakeboarding private lessons will get you out riding behind a top-of-the-line Nautique GS20 on current-year Liquid Force or O’Brien wakeboards and equipment.  You can choose to wakeboard, wakesurf, waterski, tube, or kneeboard during your private session. Our private lesson rates are all-inclusive with equipment, and gas, and we provide a US Coast Guard licensed driver/instructor. Our all-inclusive lesson prices are lower than most competitors' prices for renting just a boat. You can bring up to 5 people total for the lesson, but we generally recommend that the lesson you book provides 30 minutes for each participant to ensure they get enough riding time.
