Footy boys try wakeboarding

Staff ReporterMandurah Coastal Times

The Department of Sport and Recreation organised for a group of boys from the academy to try wakeboarding.

They were also lucky enough to meet some of the world’s best wakeboarders who were in town for the Waterski and Wakeboard Federation World Cup, including world number one wakeboarder Harley Clifford.

The boys tried an urban style of wakeboarding where a winch is used to pull the wakeboard along.
