It's great to do both. With the boat you get 15 minutes and can try one board. With the cable you can ride for hours and try lots of boards.

Cable is great for water time - and good fun in itself - but it's not the same as riding boat, hence you need to check your favourite board behind the boat too.

Btw, you'll need to call to book a boat set but for cable you can just turn up and ride. Get the cable guys to show you how to start and get round the corners.

Because it is the longest walk back of course.

If you had got past 3 you would have found that corners 4 and 5 have the sharpest pull.

I really like the New Schnitzel boards. You'll either love or hate the colours.

Hm, not sure, it was almost right back round, I was remembering only 4 corners but it nearly ripped my arms out!
Which series are the new schnizels? I'm looking on the schnizels website..
