The main cable system uses a continuous loop, allowing multiple riders to be on the water simultaneously.
The facility is designed for both wakeboarding and kneeboarding, with specific gear provided for both disciplines.
The park's design includes a 'beginner cable' system, which moves at a slower speed and allows for one-on-one instruction.
The lake system is man-made, specifically engineered to provide flat water conditions ideal for cable-towing.
It frequently hosts regional and national wakeboarding competitions due to the complexity of its obstacle course.
Gold Coast Wake Park is a purpose-built cable watersports facility featuring a main lake with a full-size counter-clockwise cable system and a secondary lake designed for beginners. The main lake utilizes overhead cable systems to tow riders on wakeboards, kneeboards, or waterskis, eliminating the need for a boat. Obstacles including rails, ramps, and kickers are permanently installed throughout the main lake for advanced trick riding. The park offers an on-site pro shop that provides equipment rentals, including wakeboards, helmets, and life jackets. A licensed cafe and spectator deck overlook the water, allowing visitors to watch riders navigate the course. The facility is located within the Oxenford region of the Gold Coast hinterland. It operates year-round, catering to both experienced pros and complete novices through designated training sessions.
The elevated spectator deck provides a panoramic view of the main cable lake and riders hitting the ramps.
