Cable WAKEBOARDING is very similar to Boat WAKEBOARDING but rather than riders being pulled by a motorboat, they are pulled by a unique electric-powered cable system. Our cable systems are designed by our industry partner Sesitec who have revolutionized how accessible, affordable and enjoyable wakeboarding and waterskiing can be for any urban and rural community in Canada. A Sesitec cable system give us the ability to tow riders around almost any size body of water in a safe and controlled manner. A Sesitec cable system makes learning to wakeboard easy and playful. The system operates on the same concept as the common "T-Bar" system used for winter ski lifts, with a few important design alterations. It works by creating an upwards pull which enables effortless starts and has proven to provide an easy learning curve for beginners. With its continuous smooth ride and strong tension, it also allows advanced riders to progress water tricks or improve their rail-riding skills rapidly. Cables are erected 8 - 12 meters above the water's surface and riders are pulled with a variable speed electric motor capable of maintaining speeds up to 40 km/h.

Due to the surface area of a wakeboard it is the easiest version of “waterskiing” to teach at very slow and safe speeds. When a rider falls they don’t have to deal with retrieving skis, which is a common occurrence behind the boat. There is virtually unlimited potential for progression. Unless you give up you will find success at Boarder Pass, and be on your way to learning new skills in a hurry.

Easy or Hard are relative terms based on every individual. BUT... The cable system is so easy to learn on that we have instructed over 30,000 + lessons with a 99% success rate in 9 years.

Our systems can be setup and removed without causing any lasting affects on the natural environment and without leaving any waste. Most importantly, with no boat, there is no risk of oil or fuel contamination to our valued lakes and rivers. The electric drive motor and the cable system also creates almost no noise (55db - less than a human voice).

Yes, please book online. If you have are booking with a flex pass that you purchased prior to the 2025 season, please call 1 855-383-7433 to book your session.

There is no age requirement. The biggest factor is how comfortable the participant is in large open bodies of water.

While cable watersports are very safe, at Boarder Pass we require every rider to wear the proper safety equipment (Canadian Coast guard approved life jacket & water sports specific helmet). If you do not own your own gear, don't worry, we have some for you!

All riders must sign a waiver, but only need to do so once per season. You can find our WSWC Liability Waiver on the website. Parents/legal guardians must sign for children under the age of 18. No exceptions.

We have everything you need to get out on the water to have an awesome day. Equipment included: Coast Guard Approved Life Vest | Helmet | Wakeboard

Of course you can! Please note that if you choose to bring your own equipment, you must wear a helmet & life vest. If you refuse, you will not be allowed to ride. The Boarder Pass staff retains the right to determine the suitability of your equipment for our facilities. Equipment is available in cases of refusal.
