The course length is over 300m, there are six slalom buoys, a ramp and a regular trick course. The cable turns counter-clockwise. Most cable parks supporting 3-event comprises this layout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this layout is not used everywhere. The way a cable park is build depends on many criteria: the size and shape of the lake, the shoreline, buildings, infrastructure settings and many more. Cable parks are fitted into existing lakes most often. Hence, layouts of cable parks can differ a lot. It is not possible to do 3-event on every cable but there are rules for quite a number of cases. The cases are distinguished by three parameters, i.e. the length of the course and whether the cable turns clockwise or counter-clockwise as well as the number of pulleys.
