If you live in Bracknell, Hi-5 Ski is only a few miles away from you:

http://www.hi5ski.co.uk

There website is crap, but they are friendly down there and have a Air nautique 216 and an air nautique 196 I think and 2 lakes and its only £12 - £15 per 15 mins set, never seems vey busy the few times I have been there on my way to Drop my boat off @ TVSki.

ps. Liquid Lesuire is very good also, and there super air rocks.

cheers

Depends what you want to pay for I guess - only been to Taplow for their comp a few weeks back - looked like a nice place with friendly people, but I haven't boarded there....

London Night jump is exactly as it sounds.... ski jumping at night. Cool event...

www.londonnightjump.com

They got a wakeboard big air comp too....

Default Cheap wakeboarding at Taplow

Come to Taplow Lake for wakeboarding - it's a friendly member-run club (not commercial, so not fleecing you for your money) where you can get a tow for £14 as a guest. It's not time-limited, you get 6 passes of the lake, so you can be super confident and try all your new tricks without worrying about wasting time by falling in. And there's free tea & coffee, hot showers, and as much cheap chocolate as you can scoff!
See www.twswc.co.uk for more details.

Default Taplow

Hey

I have ridden at all the berkshire lakes, i ride at taplow for boat purely because they are the cheapest around (by about £10) per tow! I have been there for a year and its a pretty sound place! In terms of the best coaching around etc, i'd say the Quays is the best for quality of boat and tutor!
Other than that thorpe gets my vote for a cable. . . .

Hope this helps, if you need anymore info let me know
