Jam Nights
The best way to get to meet the crew. Rather than booking your 15 min sets book in for on of our jam nights where loads of people head down for an evening and roate around both parks in smaller 5 minute sets. It allows you to practice one trick at a time and get egged on by the crowd on the dock. You alwyas get to see other riders rip it up. Its amazing what you will pick up from just watching. Super fun nights and now with the floodlights goes well into dock. Each night has a different theme and includes snacks and challenges. Check out our recent news and events to keep up to date with our next jam night.
This one is for riders at obstacle standard only. The coaching comes from the crowd for good or ill!
Junior Jams
The same great atmosphere as the the main jams but just for the younger crew. Every other week to the main jams aimed at 10 to 16 yrs olds. Also check out our cutting edge summer camp, same age group and aimed at everything watersports. Runs 2 - 3 times a year Monday - Friday 09.30 - 12.30. See our summer camp section fro full details.
Ladies Mornings and Couch to Kicker Courses
Our ladies wake and cake morings have always been a main stay since the founding of the park. In the last couple of years we have been running our couch to kicker coures. 6 weeks where our female coaches take you from the couch to your first kicker hit (ramp) one weekday evening a week for 6 weeks. Ideal to meet new people and wake buddies for years to come. The sport is super friendly and welcoming but knowing you have someone to compete with and challenge each other makes all the difference to making this a lifestyle sport.
Ballyhass Open Compeition
Our mainstay compeition which runs in a different format each year, has multiple stops and allows you to show off to your friends and family. Its a great goal to work towards and keeps you pushing yourself. Work with our coaches to perfect your run and lay it all out there. There is no better feeling.
Your First Time?
We recommend you go for two sets (Two 15 minute timeslots) this gives you a chance to get out on the water, come back in take a break, take stock and get back and see just how much you learnt in that first set. If you are bringing a friend its great to go alternative sets. If not juts book your timeslots with a set in between and it may fill by one of our regulars who are always more than happy to share their knowledge.
Check out this great video show casing what its like to visit the park for th first time.
Experienced Riders

The wakepark is a 5 minute walk from the reception is its good to give yourself a bit of time prior to arrival so you can get your bearings especially on your first time out.
