What is water skiing with no jumping?

This version of water skiing focuses purely on gliding across the water’s surface, without any jumping, tricks, or aerial manoeuvres. It’s a more relaxed form of the sport – ideal for beginners or those who want to enjoy the experience at a gentler pace while being towed by a boat or cable system.

Is travel insurance still necessary?

Absolutely. Even without jumps, accidents can happen – from unexpected falls to collisions or muscle strains. Travel insurance ensures you’re covered for medical treatment and trip-related issues if something doesn’t go to plan.

What does non-jumping water skiing insurance cover?

Our policies provide medical cover, repatriation, and personal accident protection. You’ll also be covered if your trip is cancelled or delayed, or if you’re held liable for accidental injury or damage during your activity.

Does standard travel insurance include this?

Often not. Basic travel insurance may exclude sports involving towing, even without jumps. It’s important to make sure your plan specifically includes this form of water skiing.

Can I get cover with a medical condition?

Yes – in many cases. Declare your condition when getting a quote and we’ll guide you through your options. Most travellers are still eligible, even with pre-existing conditions.

Many insurers offer cover up to age 70. If you’re active and in good health, there are usually options available – just check the policy details before buying.

Possible injuries and how insurance helps

Even in low-impact skiing, you could still experience:

  • Muscle strains from sudden movements
  • Minor falls or surface collisions
  • Dehydration or sunburn from extended time outdoors

Insurance helps you recover costs for treatment, transport, and missed parts of your holiday.

Tips to stay safe while keeping your skis on the water

  • Stick to flat, calm waters and avoid rough conditions
  • Always wear a life jacket and follow boat driver instructions
  • Let someone know your skiing plan and location
  • Take regular breaks to rest and rehydrate
