The wake park on Revolution Square has two huge pools, one 25 meters long and the other 50 meters long and 11 meters wide. The water here is about 1000 tons, and the depth is only a meter. The water is the purest, and so that it does not stagnate, it is constantly pumped through the filters of 20 pumps located around the perimeter. Between themselves, the pools are connected by jumps, on which you can ride from one to another. In a word, a great place for extreme water sports, which even beginners can do. A halyard is installed above the pool - a reversible winch with a handle, and the skater holds on to it.

The halyard will not let you fall off the board, unless, of course, you follow the advice of the instructor, ”Ivan Kutuzov, a representative of the organizing committee for preparing the celebration of the Moscow anniversary, told RG.

However, before the beginner gets on the board and starts on the water surface, the coach will instruct him. He will also pick up a wetsuit and a wakeboard for those who want to ride - a board with bindings-boots of the right size. The outfit also includes a helmet and a vest. Then - a warm-up so that the skating does not end with muscle strain. The training time is an hour, it is enough to learn water tricks.

Nearby, on Manezhnaya Square, another installation appeared - the 12-meter "Artificial Wave". This simulator, which imitates an ocean wave, works like this: a powerful stream of water is supplied to the inclined surface, and instructors will teach you how to stay on it, balancing on the board. They will also show you how to jump and turn on this board. Learned? So, it's time to go to catch a real wave without traction and insurance! After such an adventure, you will not freeze in any weather. Merzlyaks can warm up in a warm locker room.

This is such a gift, - foreign tourists in the center of the capital are surprised.

The site is really the largest not only in Moscow, but also in Europe for water sports, - says Igor Perov, curator of the Wake Park project on Revolution Square. And continues:

I'm sure Muscovites are already tired of going only to the movies or riding a bike. Why not try yourself in extreme sports? Of course, there is no sea in Moscow, but now there is a wake park...

Among other things, on these water platforms every day you can also admire a spectacular show program, demonstration performances and competitions with the participation of the world's strongest athletes from Russia, Germany, Holland, Austria, Estonia and Belarus. The main wakeboarding tournament will take place on 8 and 9 September.

For reference:

Entertainment is intended for people of all ages from 12 to 60 years old. You just need to pre-register on the cityday.moscow website. But it's not worth coming to ride in a big company - six people can participate on the "Artificial wave" at the same time, and no more than four on the board. Children under 18 are allowed to participate in sports master classes only when accompanied by adults. Training in the pools is free of charge from 10.00 to 22.00. Registration is open until October 9th. You need to bring a towel and slippers with you.
