Phuket Wake Parks - recent experiance?
 
Heading to Phuket in October

typically the dates clash with things - kids are missing a Scotty Kell Groms camp and round 1 of our competition so I am keen to get them to the parks a couple of times - also seen a couple of boat options?

any recent experience?

best park?

thanks

International Wake Park has the nicest accommodation out of the 3, has guys to pick you up on scooters if you fall far away from the dock, good food, and is literally only 1 mile from the airport and beach. The owner toon is cool and will take care of you there. The only flaw is the water is pretty salty.

Anthem Wakepark doesnt have accomodation, but is an absolute blast, highest cable I have ever ridden. The owners are super awesome Rebecca and Yok will show you a badass time, and they have a rock climbing gym. anthem is probably the least busy and easy to get riding in. (fresh water)

Phuket wake park was pretty busy when I went so I didnt ride, but they open super early in the morning if you want to have butter laps or to get some good filming in.

they are all within an hour drive from each other in a car, faster to drive a scooter.

I reccomend staying at International wakepark as its close to the airport then riding mostly there and anthem.

Thanks - staying in Kao Lak - anthem looks like the go

discovered that Khao Lak is actually a long way from Phuket (albeit you land at Phuket airport)

we spent a day at IWP and it was awesome (even if long drive) - met Julia Rick good fun and awesome on cable.

if we did it again I'd stay at IWP for a couple of nights then head to a resort

Did you do any filming? Would love to see an edit of your trip!

Hi J. B., what's wrong with salty water for wakebarding?
