Merkur Wake Park

The main idea behind first water tow was to create an alternative to expensive and non-ecological speedboat, which is more of a VIP entertainment than a sport for the general public. The first water tow was built in 1962 in Germany, which later became the pioneer of the water tows in the world. The basics of control and the technology itself remained the same until today. The main difference of modern tows is the higher rope attachment and the traditional four masts, which are extended by 1-2 more, so the corners are smooth and have no sharp angles. The new 5 and 6-angle lifts are easier for beginners and thus the wider public becomes interested in water sports.

Towed wakeboarding has recently been shortlisted for new sports at the 2020 Summer Olympics. The whole story is very similar to the one of snowboarding, that was invented in the 1970s. A worldwide boom was recorded in the 1990s and it sealed its popularity at the 1998 Winter Olympics.

Vážení návštěvníci Kempu Merkur,  prosíme o obezřetnost a pochopení, protože v kempu i nadále probíhají stavební práce, které se týkají modernizace a výstavby nových bungalovů s předpokládaným otevřením v sezóně 2026. Výstavba probíhá v oblasti původních bungalovů B VI a B VII v blízkosti letního kina, 80% plochy v kempu se to nedotkne.

Děkujeme za pochopení a těšíme se na vás. 💙
