"Wavegarden is a man-made wave that creates ideal conditions for surfing, as well as a broadly appealing range of other wave sports such as body boarding, kayaking, and stand up paddling. Early testing and professional feedback show Wavegarden to be the closest thing to an ocean break.

With Wavegarden you can create a surf spot anywhere in the world and surf it anytime you like. Our technology can create a beach with gentle waves for non-surfers or a challenging wave for surfers of all levels.

The patented Wavegarden technology can be applied to a variety of existing bodies of water: from lakes and lagoons, to reservoirs and large ponds.

In each case, perfect waves of all sizes, shapes and speeds are consistently generated in a safe, natural environment using much less energy than any other wave generator in history.

A Wavegarden wave can be programmed to adapt to any type of wave to suit various client needs, as per each customised design (recommended size 1.6m)"

Looks fun! Only a bit small and I guess you will never get the same rush as in the ocean/ sea.
Think it would be great for learning& maybe a bit of training.

Hej!

I reckon that it is a bit small, nevertheless, it can get to head-high waves.

But for mensen who live, lets say, in Maastricht, I think they wouldn't mind having around such a "pond break" wave like this one. Wink
