I remember there was some dude making this from 4 (or more) steel containers, but water wasn't so deep so they must use shorter fins
|
Finally somone got it made. There have been a ton of people working on these systems worldwide. Surfcity Texas and James Fullbright had a similar but bigger design. Google him for more info.
|
Dang that thing is sick. Anyone know the general principle?
Also anyone know the song in the top video? I dig it. The song in the 2nd video....not so much |

It might get boring but it's better than not surfing when it's flat for 2 weeks. It's a good start, and I'm sure over time it will get scaled up to a better bigger wave. Wakesurfing can get boring, but it's exciting to see the sport grow and to see wakes getting bigger and better. More waves = more surfers = more money spent on surfing = more money invested in surf technology = better waves = more surfers...

That movie miles to surf has the tanker surfing in it. My buddy Fred (olmoomba) on here, we tried to trade James Fulbright a wakesurfing session for the secret spot they caught those tanker waves at. He wasnt going for it though. |
