Both Javito, Frank or Ricard would be happy to welcome you and train you at their favorite spot! You can book either the Beginner Cable of 130 meters long or the Expert\u00a0Cable of 160 meters. Either way, you will be taught how to practice and perfect with professional instructors! <strong>Barcelona Cable Park<\/strong> is a two-tower system: one towrope goes back and forth on the same cable route. This is the best way to learn and practice. The trick is to let you go into the water, almost sinking down, and then be pulled up again. Thanks to the two kickers and an up-rail you can also practice jumps.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Related articles : <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/water-sports-barcelona\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Practice water sports in Barcelona!<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_BCP_Wakepark_rates\"><\/span><strong>The BCP Wakepark rates<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<div id=\"attachment_74196\" style=\"width: 276px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-74196\" class=\" wp-image-74196\" src=\"https:\/\/www.shbarcelona.com\/blog\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/07\/wakeboard-wakeskating-barcelona-cable-park-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Photo credit: Glyn Lowe Photoworks. via Visualhunt.com \/ CC BY \" width=\"266\" height=\"178\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-74196\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Photo by Glyn Lowe Photoworks. via Visualhunt<\/p><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>Barcelona Cable Park<\/strong> is the cheapest park in Catalu\u00f1a!
