the problem with a lot of these wave machine ideas is (as surfparks encountered), the energy created to make a scale model wave break in that fashion becomes infinitely greater when you scale up to real size. The power of the wave under the water needs to be great enough to overcome gravity when the size of the wave and thickness of the lip get bigger and bigger. Small waves dont need nearly as much energy to barrel as a larger wave. The bottom contour helps, but you still need power
just make a wave pool god damnt

Up the scale by 8-10x,and put it in my back yard!!!!I would never get out of the water then.Looks nice for man made

You should build a wave pool in São Paulo - Brazil.

When surf parks scaled up their models, the waves become more and more mushy the bigger they went.

that is unreal.thers a few different guys playing around with the same sotra stuff.good luck i just want som1 to do it in full scale
