I enjoy surfing with artificial waves.
Surfing is interesting! I've never been. How do you surf artificial waves?
Surfing
Surfing is a surface water sport in which the wave rider, referred to as a surfer, rides on the forward or face of a moving wave, which usually carries the surfer towards the shore. Waves suitable for surfing are primarily found in the ocean, but can also be found in lakes or rivers in the form of a standing wave or tidal bore. However, surfers can also utilize artificial waves such as those from boat wakes and the waves created in artificial wave pools.
The term "surfing"
Newquay Surfing Reef
Newquay surfing reef was a project in 2011 to build an artificial reef in Newquay, Cornwall, England, UK. It never happened.
Newquay is one of Britain's top surfing locations and the project was aimed at increasing the swell and frequency of the waves to a better world standard for surfing.
