ASMR wave pool experience? Of course!

News

There's no exciting surfing in this clip. None, and we have something to confess. Fatigued by YouTubers gesticulating wildly to mimic enthusiasm, we decided to pull the plug on hyper edits. For now at least. Earlier this year we were feeling the first pulses of this groundswell and in a stop-the-world-I-want-to-get-off kind of moment we laced together some prime pool

One person’s difficulty capturing their wave pool sessions leads to new AI photography system

News

After years of regularly surfing at URBNSURF in Melbourne, Australia, Luke Wallace noticed a problem. Surfers, such as himself, did not have an efficient way to capture video of their sessions. Still photography was nice, but got repetitive and was not always consistent due to human error. To capture video, Luke and others would set up smartphones on tripods to

News, Television

Last year we saw a never-ending stream of clips from the Palm Springs Surf Club as Tom Lochtefeld’s wave-making technology sprung to life in the desert east of Los Angeles. So profuse was the digital confetti cannon of pros, influencers, actors and Insta-famous surfing the new pool, it became hard to keep track of all the sessions. Thankfully, SurfLoch skimmed

Are things getting weird at your house during the lockdown?

Life is strange right now. Some of us are using the lockdown time to better ourselves with YouTube cooking classes, podcasts on home organization and online yoga.

Are we deep enough into the wave pool blitz to have a nostalgia movement yet? 2008 was a crucial juncture in human-made wave development. Kelly Slater and Greg Webber tussled with their respective designs and the world’s largest surf shop, Ron Jons, was in the midst of an Orlando pool build.

Tour the world’s wave pools from space

Surf exploration used to be full of mystery. The first generation of adventurers poured over nautical logs and maps then hit the coastal deserts and jungles of the world. It was analog adventuring at its finest. It was also random. Surfers hoping to discover a new Jeffreys Bay were just as likely to sit out a flat spell on a

Off-the-cuff-airs: Jacob Szekely lights up Waco

There’s a wonderful reckless abandon to Jason Szekely’s airs, like he didn’t decide what move he was gonna do until mid-flight. It looks sometimes haphazard, but then, he pulls it. We became fans after watching the evolution of his judo airs at the Waco wave pool, a maneuver that somehow evolved into something completely different mid-ride. By the end of
