Take to the waves on the Alps lakes
08 Août 2007
Tweet

Rivers and lakes replace the slopes when winter sports give up their place to water sports in Rhône-Alpes. Gliding pleasures exist in all seasons!

Wakeboard

Emmanuelle Dumolard is an insatiable champion. She is the winner of the European championships and well classified at world level in wakeskate, she shares her passion, with all those who profit from equipment progress, to enjoy the pleasure of gliding sports on the lakes.

With a whole panoply of activities some more exciting than others, wakeboard, skateboard and wakeskate, the natural child of both disciplines; but also wakesurf and barefoot, a pure glide on bare feet. The trick, for some of these sports, goes as far as trying to slide along the water, without even getting wet!

Wakeboard

This is the reason why all these pure pleasures are accessible

to children, from two years old even without knowing how to swim.

What is important is that they want to be in the water, but the little ones

are rarely afraid and monitors are hyper professional and enjoy sharing their enthusiasm.

Another pleasure, and not the least, is the Terrasse de l’ Oasis, the restaurant on the banks of the lake where one can regale oneself with freshly caught fish, such as the omble or the féra, just before returning to the helm, the wakeboard or the waves.

During winter, the whole team is at the domain des Trois vallées, so that everyone can enjoy the pleasures of snow sports and, in any case, disabled people are welcome, during summer and winter, thanks to specialized handisports monitors.
