Ride the Cables

Ride Sessions

Wakeboard Ride Sessions at Lagoon Wake Park, Brighton. 1 hour sessions are shared between  up to 4 riders and 30 minute sessions are shared by up to 2 riders. If only 1 rider is booked for a session the ride time may be reduced half the session length.
 
We have three wakeboard cables, all of which are slightly different so we will try and guide you to the most suitable for your style and ability.

TECH Cable, this cable is not suitable for aerial tricks but has lots of awesome sliders including our new Step Up Rail and a Box with Bank Rail to keep you entertained and get tech on!
 
AIR Cable which has lots of space for you to throw your tricks, so if you want to practice your aerials this is the cable to book. If you don’t want to do just aerials this cable still has a lot to offer including an Incline Rail and a Rooftop Rail.
 
Prices : Sessions cost £37.50 which includes hire of board, wetsuit, helmet (compulsory for all riders) and impact vest. (the sessions are free to Beach Club Members) Save £5 if you have your own board.
If you have your own board you can save £5 by using the discount code “HIRE” at the time of booking.
 
Timings: Your session will be booked for a specific time slot. You need to be ready to ride at the start time of your session so we advise arriving 20 minutes in advance of this. Do not be late as it is unlikely we will be able to put you on another session.

Course objective:

Have fun, improve your skills and meet like minded people.
1 hour sessions are shared between  up to 4 riders and 30 minute sessions are shared by up to 2 riders. If only 1 rider is booked for a session the ride time may be reduced half the session length.

Water quality

The water quality in Hove Lagoon is independently tested regularly during the summer season as part of the Brighton and Hove City Councils seafront beach water quality testing. Lagoon Watersports opened in 1994, since that date the water in Hove Lagoon has passed every test.

Independent water quality test results from 2017  testing

Total Colibacteria


Faecal Colibacteria


Faecal Enterococci


  • Natural algae growth occurs in the Lagoon. This algae can look unpleasant particularly when it blows to one corner of the Lagoon. It is harmless. It is NOT blue/green algae that fresh water lakes can suffer from.
  • Sometimes there is a smell. This smell is caused by the natural process of the algae.
  • Brighton and Hove City Council treat the water with an organic substance to help suppress the algae growth.
  • The water in the Lagoon is sea water rather than fresh water which prevents some common water quality issues that lakes suffer from.
  • The Lagoon is topped up with fresh seawater every few days.
  • The Lagoon is very shallow so the sun can penetrate to the bottom.
  • There is a high level of evaporation and leakage in the Lagoon.
  • The sea water that goes into the Lagoon meets all bathing test requirements.
