Wakeboarding at Lac de Saint-Pardoux

At Lac de Saint-Pardoux, among our favorite activities are water sports 💦

Today, for you, we took to the water (and not just a little 😅) and tried out a new activity!

Don’t worry, there’s something for every taste and level 😉

Come on, follow me, I’ll tell you all about my experience as a gliding queen 🎿

An indescribable feeling

Today, you’re going to join me on a surfing trip in the heart of nature at Lac de Saint-Pardoux! 💚

Come and wake up your inner Brice de Nice 🤙🏼

If, like me, you love thrills and chills in the great outdoors, this is the activity for you! Welcome to the kings of the slopes 💦

A warm, friendly atmosphere in an idyllic, soothing setting, where everything has been thought of so that you’ll want for nothing: water skiing, towed buoys, kneeboarding, wakeboarding, wakeskating…

Choose your activity of the day 😉

Good to know!

Wake and Ski, located on the Fréaudour site, is open from April to October. So don’t wait any longer to come and enjoy a wide range of activities, in complete safety, whether you’re a beginner, a regular or even an experienced skier!

Setting up

The Wake and Ski team, made up of certified instructors, will be delighted to help you discover all activities with passion and pedagogy.

For supporters, don’t hesitate to take a few photos! Memorable memories guaranteed, especially if you end up in the water 🤭

Once you’ve donned your vest and helmet, the team will give you a briefing on how the activity works and how to set up your equipment. Then it’s time to take the plunge 💦

The objective? Stand on your skis or kneel on your board and go as far as you can without letting go of the rope 😉

Enjoy the glide and the scenery

How does it work? This equipment works on a back-and-forth basis, where you pass one after the other at a speed that can be adjusted from 0 to 30km/h, allowing you to learn and improve at your own pace!

To get started, you’re on the platform, on your knees, feet attached to the skis, or attached to your board, hands hooked to the rudder bar, it starts, you begin to glide over the water…you resist or you straighten up… voila, you’re in place and just have to enjoy the glide and the scenery! 👀

Once you’re comfortable and well stabilized, you’ll learn to hold a relaxed posture and link turns! Option? More experienced riders can try out jumps and figures 😉

If you’d like to try out other activities on site, there’s also the option of water skiing, towed buoys, slalom, and even baby skiing for the younger ones 🤗

Are you hungry? 😋 Head for the Snack O Lac, where the menu includes snacks, gourmet salads, ice creams and drinks, so you can recharge your batteries before heading out again 💪🏼
