I placed a link to a place near by where you can Cable Ski. If you decide to go perhaps you could give us some feedback on here as to if it's anygood etc. MuteWitness 22-04-2003, 15:43 http://sheffieldcablewaterski.com/ tajcoral 22-04-2003, 16:32 Thanks for the info and f_g for the quick link. I will be going there soon so I will let you know mikey 23-04-2003, 16:43 I've been to this place and had a go, its good fun and can be done by complete novices, they give you all the gear wet suits etc and show you the basics, you do need to be reasonable fit as it is hard work. I couldnt move my arms for about three days afterwards.....

How much did it cost and did you get as long as you wanted? mikey 24-04-2003, 11:28 Can't remember exactly but I think it was about £15 for a couple of hours which is plenty long enough. Watch out for the corners if you go, as there's a knack to getting around them, once you have mastered that its dead easy. mikey MuteWitness 24-04-2003, 14:30 and it jolts your arms!!! take a few days off work! Kloncid 03-11-2003, 17:43 Has anyone noticed the hideous state of the cable ski pond? Scummy or what! Its certainly an incentive not to fall off. As the place is surrounded by scrapyards, I can only imagine the rat population. Its ok, but if you get the chance, go boat skiing. Such a buzz. Youll never cable ski again. Its good for beginers tho. just keep up to date with your jabs! Oh, and unless you like the feeling of slime between your toes, wear wetsocks. Happy skiing! |
