We have a number of ways to get the disabled active on the water.
The Triple Bar:
The Triple Bar involves two instructors helping the disabled skier
(on a pair of skis) get themselves up and out of the water. Once
upright they are supported on either side.

Root 5:
The Root 5 (seated) ski is like a large sit-on canoe. Two instructors
are positioned either side to aid the skier and ensure they enjoy
whizzing around behind the boat.
Sitz Ski:
As your skiing develops, this framed seated ski is more reactive
and precise. Again we use helpers to get you started, but as your
skiing improves, you may find you can ski independently, and tackle
the slalom course with a bit of practice.
In addition, other Disabled facilities includee: ·
- A clubhouse with hot showers, toilets, spacious changing
rooms.
- A car park complete with accessible parking space.
- Use of wetsuits, life jackets, and ski equipment (such as
helmets and goggles).
- A launch slipway, pontoon dock and hoist to aid disabled
skiers.
