RetroVault: The super speedway of surfing is here!

The hyperbole is good and includes “a revolution in surfing,” “perfect endless dynamic overhead barreling surf” and other gems. But the reality is that it’s a guy named Kevin (possibly with a mullet but it’s hard to tell with that backdrop) in a Hawaiian shirt mansplaining the next big thing in surfing.

“This machine delivers the most intense continuous excitement possible for both surfers and spectators alike,” says Kevin. “Surf the Ring endless dynamic perfect barreling waves on demand.”

This 2008 YouTube clip made us smile because it comes from that era before Waves Per Hour, client throughput, F&B, ROI and water tables (in short reality) were front and center for surf park development. The wave pool landscape was a big, open dream. Thank you for sharing that dream Kevin.
