About cable wakeboarding and wakeskating

In cable wakeboarding, riders are pulled by an electric cable system rather than a boat. The course combines speed, jumps and technical tricks on ramps and other features. Wakeskating uses a board without bindings and demands a different kind of balance and control.

Read about the venue, regular opening times and activities on our guide to Norsjø Cable Park.

Planning the competition weekend

September weather in Telemark can bring sunshine, wind and cool spells. Pack warm layers and waterproof clothing, even if you are spectating. Riders should confirm registration, practice times, safety equipment and licence requirements with the organiser or their federation.

Akkerhaugen is easiest to reach by car. For teams and families, booking a whole holiday home can simplify shared meals, rest and transport planning. Reserve early if your group needs several beds for the same weekend.

Telemark Guesthouse is not the event organiser. Programme and participation details must be confirmed with the federation and Norsjø Cable Park.
