Hi Wake 5.0 is the central destination for active days in Sunīši. It is promoted as Latvia's largest full-size cable wake park.

Those who want not only to ride themselves but also to receive instruction will find industry professionals and coaches there. They encourage riders, advise them and share their experience.

In summer, Hi Wake 5.0 runs a wakeboarding school for children and teenagers on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. This is particularly interesting for families whose children want to try a specific sporting activity. This information describes the summer program; if you are traveling at another time, you should check separately whether it is currently being offered. The sports trampoline complements the activities with jumping and tricks, thus appealing to another form of physical activity.
