Grom 2.0 Sessions
Your little shredder has mastered the basics β now itβs time to take things to the next level!
Grom 2.0 is designed for riders aged 7β12 whoβve completed several Grom Squad sessions and are confidently doing laps on a wakeboard at this park.
This progression-style session focuses on building skills, confidence, and style as young riders start learning how to approach and hit features like boxes and kickers. With hands-on coaching, a supportive vibe, and a focus on safe progression, Grom 2.0 helps kids push their limits β and discover how fun wakeboarding can really be!
The Goal:
To bridge the gap between Grom Squad and General Public IntermediateΒ sessions, giving our young riders the skills (and stoke!) to ride features with confidence and style.
Disclaimer: No Golf buggy service for this one as we prepare the grommets for the normal cable sessions. Limited to 20 spots. Valid for the 3 month pass. Board with boots to hit the features is not included and available for hire for additional $20 per session per person.Β
