Mission Bay Youth Watersports Camp is the largest and most popular wakeboarding and waterskiing school in Southern California. Using expert teaching techniques, campers can learn to wakeboard or waterski for the first time or improve existing skills to more advanced levels.

All instructors are United States Coast Guard licensed and USA Waterski instructor qualified.
 
  MULTI-LEVEL WAKEBOARDING AND WATERSKIING

  ADVANCED WAKEBOARDING AND WATERSKIING

1/2 DAY AFTERNOON WAKEBOARDING AND WATERSKIING CAMP

This course can be used as a half day afternoon wakeboarding and waterskiing camp, or can be combined with one of our instructional morning activities to form a week-long, all day wakeboarding camp! This camp is modeled after our afternoon wakeboarding activity which campers experience in our standard full day camp. This camp differs from our morning instructional wakeboarding activity, but is more recreational in nature and is focused on fun! Activities include tubing, kneeboarding, and jetski rides daily. The cost is $250 just for the afternoons, or $500 when combined with our morning wakeboarding camp. If you would like to combine the afternoon wakeboarding camp with one of our other morning activities such as surfing or sailing, the cost is $400. Offered all weeks of camp.

Unlike our standard camp, this program will conduct wakeboarding instruction all day, not just during the morning session. Our instructors, consisting of qualified competitive wakeboarders, will utilize all tools available including classroom instruction, video, land training and ample on-the- water practice time. This intensive camp is perfect for the wakeboarder who is interested in competition or needs guidance to push their riding to the next level. Pre-qualification is required.
 
  ADVANCED WAKEBOARDING DEVELOPMENT CAMP
This camp, emphasizing skill development, will help the advanced rider to improve their technique, and take the next step in their skill progression. Goals for the camper begin with learning progressive cuts, jumping wake to wake, grabbing, and potentially mastering spins and inverts based on the campers’ abilities. This camp is a perfect opportunity to learn and improve wakeskating tricks such as the ollie, wake jump, shuvits, and more.

Pre-qualification ensures a productive learning environment by teaming the advanced camper with other motivated riders who are focused on improvement.
