Gear You Need to Get Started

The right equipment makes the difference between a frustrating day and a breakthrough one. At a minimum, every rider should have a board matched to their sport and weight, a properly fitted life jacket, a quality tow rope and handle, and bindings or traction pads sized to their feet for control and confidence.

Not sure where to start? That is exactly what we are here for. Pull Pro Shop carries hand-picked boards, ropes, vests, and foil gear for every level, and we are happy to help you dial in the perfect setup for how you ride on Lanier.

Tips for Your First Day on the Water

Start early. The calmest, glassiest water on Lake Lanier is almost always before 10 a.m., when wind and boat traffic are at their lowest. Keep your sessions short at first to avoid fatigue, stay hydrated in the Georgia heat, and always ride with a spotter in addition to the driver. Most importantly, be patient with yourself, every rider falls, and progress comes faster than you think.
