I had my first sesh yesterday and it was so much better than it looks like on the videos. Plenty of power. I agree that the 1,7 setting is better than the 2 meter setting. I’ll definitely be back for more!
2 m 🤣. Good one. 2 m out here is 6 ft Hawaiian plus ocean swell. I am not sure how this wave pool is measured? 🤔 Looks like anout 1 ft or 30 cm of swell. 0.30 m?
Its a cool idea. Be nice if it was 2 blocks long, but its cool that its just in the middle of the city, and isn't too expensive to ride. I read its $38-60 dollars an hour. Although you could probably just spend that money on gas and drive to the coast, idk much about surf in Netherlands. Hopefully they can keep it clean. Also nice its powered by renewable energy.
Our waves are absolutely worthless, mushy wind waves all year round. Except for the odd couple days a year. I surfed Scheveningen from the pier back in the 90s when it was actually a good hollow clean 6-8 feet. Never seen that again. Was pretty gnarly with the currents.
my man, there's no way that 3rd setting is a 2M tall wave... 2M is like overhead when the surfer is standing in the bottom, that's a 50 cm wave at best
Agreed. This is the information I got told. Seems like they measure maybe only take-off spot and top of wave till deepest trough... Seems optimistic at least haha
@@surfcoach no unfortunately I'm not near there, I live in the south of Sardinia, I have a friend who lives nearby, he says he plans to try it.. subs and like!
Hey thanks for the good video. What kind of board are you riding? I’m still debating which board to use for the expert session, either a 6.1 fish with 40l and a flat rocker or my 5.11 performance shortboard with 30l. I want to use my shortboard but I think the wave might not be powerful enough for it.What do you think?:)
Thanks for the compliment. I rode my Lost Sub driver2.0 there. Loved it but will try a bigger board as well. Definitely take a bigger board first. It has more power then it looks and you can always switch during the session if wanted.
Gaan ze het n beetje mooi aankleden ? Die hekken aan de straat zijn echt lelijk. Die houten wand ziet er heel goedkoop uit. Het is midden in de binnenstad, dus 'curb appeal' is belangrijk.
It doesnt look good tbh on video, deff gonna check it out myself before I pay for it. The wavepool of Korea for example looks way better as does the one in Australia. But I want to be optimistic, this is the beginning, i believe there is enough animo to make this a thing in the Netherlands.
@@surfcoach looks horrible. Drop in 2 turns and that's it. That containing wall looks too small to generate a proper peak and even if it deed..... the depht maybe not enough. Went viral because of the urban setting nothing more. Would be very hard to justify the ubsrd amount of money one would have to pay to ride the smallest artificial wave. I cant foresee that potencial. Plus... 1,60 meter wave?? you must be joking
Video went totally viral ...... these Generation Z youngsters need to get a grip on life and a perspective on the world they are living in. 2 Million views is Viral ?

Really helpful, thanks man 🤙

Public wavepool is insane idea !! holly dam its freakin cool !!!!
If with this you mean its free, its not 😬, cool nonetheless!
But is cool anyway..anyone is able to go
I like how you practice what you preach! (The online surf coach lessons, turning, compressing, looking etc) Nice!
Jep. Always learning with the Surf Academy Pro information & techniques. Will use this wavepool for some in-depth technique analysis as well.
Did my share of time on the US East coast and I know how desperate for waves you can get. Having something like this would have been a godsend.

Yeah I also felt that the waves felt so much better than they looked. What board did you surf?
How much was it :) ?
how is that 2m :D
2 m 🤣. Good one. 2 m out here is 6 ft Hawaiian plus ocean swell.
I am not sure how this wave pool is measured? 🤔 Looks like anout 1 ft or 30 cm of swell. 0.30 m?
well on par with the quality of the natural waves we have here in the NLD!
lol yes it's shit.
Looking forward to sipping a beer at one of those bars, watching you guys ride the waves
You sip your beer? 😬
@@NofirstnameNolastname *chugging 😜
You really should. Awesome views.
I recall being surprised to see a surf shop in Amsterdam 30 years ago.
Going to train my backside. Thanks for the usefull info about this wave.
Good to hear man! This wave is definitely better for the goofy footers
That is what it is for. 👌🤙
The Urban twist is brilliant. 🚀🚀🚀
The metric system doesn’t look Hawaiian . But still really fun and refreshing
I think 1 dutch meter is about 1 hawaiian foot 😂

Longer wasn't an option in this location unfortunately. Waves here are very inconsistent and not great. This is a welcome addition for many

Stoked for my first sesh there 💪🏼
When are you going?
@@surfcoachsaturday 13th 😊
@@AronRoversniiice! Excited to hear how your experience will be
Looks so fun 🔥
It is!
It looks like there’s too much water for it to break properly
They're testing with less water in the pool I heard as well. No idea how that went.
my man, there's no way that 3rd setting is a 2M tall wave... 2M is like overhead when the surfer is standing in the bottom, that's a 50 cm wave at best
I was thinking the same lol, how can he be taller than a 2m wave while croaching?
Agreed. This is the information I got told. Seems like they measure maybe only take-off spot and top of wave till deepest trough... Seems optimistic at least haha
This is marketing for kooks 😂
Don’t get me wrong I like the idea and the video
@@surfcoach yeah probably thats how they measure it, like from the bottom (ground) to the top of the wave
Even my grandson Sem ( 11 ) rides the waves
The waves look fun but they should bring a wavegarden project.
Why a wavegarden?
@@surfcoachleft and right, longer.
@@surfcoach way more power. Much cleaner wave.
Real surf experience
lol! this looks better than a wave garden.
Now for some big fans on the side hehe.
Great stuff!!
Thanks Emi. You in the area? Going to try it out yourself?
@@surfcoach no unfortunately I'm not near there, I live in the south of Sardinia, I have a friend who lives nearby, he says he plans to try it.. subs and like!
Appreciate it ❤️
Crazy. Would angling the bottom of the wavepool to form an angled bank make the wave run longer?
Yes this would change the wave but not neccesarily for the better
YEEAAH boooiii!!! 👏🏼🤙🏼

Surfed it yesterday and there’s plenty of power! Any way there is time to switch boards quickly if you leave one on the “beach”.

@@frankioAll Right, thanks :)
@@surfcoach Thank you :)
@@surfcoach What dims is your Sub Driver 2.O?
Cool! But the person that has been sharing the wave size with you must have a very disappointed girlfriend
😂
so cool!!!
Thanks Nicole. Appreciate the support 🙏
Acid drop off the wall into the wave🤙🏽
Just been done by Italo Ferreira yesterday 🥳

Jazeker. Hekken zijn al lang weg, dit was weken voor de officiele opening. 😊
What setting would YOU choose to surf on?
Does the wave allow for more than one turn/trick?
@@indetrucksyess. You can see and hear this in the video. 160cm is three short turns or two big ones
Holland waves are small and weak even when artificial lol
😂
Sick!!
Thanks guys
I"m so jealous. Wave parks are only for the rich. This is amazing.
Do you have info on the pricing for renting boards and wetsuits?
All info on rif010.nl
pete whittaker the climbers brother?

Korea was fun.
Which lost model did u ride?
Subdriver 2.0
You surf in storm water?
Filtration system is in place
It looks both cool and a nightmare
Itz Killah Irieeee
Man, wat denkt ge van een België-Nederland surfbattle 😅
Let's do it!
@@surfcoach 😁 zou zalig zijn
can it break left?
Watch the video fully and you'll get your answer of why/how
No
What's the song name @ 3:00
A286 Pra Não Morrer Antes da Guerra
Interesting 😏
Thanks. Appreciate it
@@surfcoach no worries, I'm also happy to see how this wave works, so thanks for showing it and sharing your experience 🤘🏻👌🏻🤙🏻
hahaha 2m looks more like a meter...
this
Kan ie ook naar links vr de goofys
Nope. Dit leg ik uitgebreid uit in de video
😍😍😍😍👏👏👏💪💪👍
🎉🎉
Das ist’ grande
hmmmmmmm better then nothing but.....
Wel phat.....public
unreal you can go for a smoke in the cafe then get a wave unreal
😂
Looks like a nice shit pond! What a score!
It’s a bit shit.
Budget wavepool, just what you'd expect from the Dutch 😂
it looks stupid.
You would make it look amazing though 🫶
At 5:13, is it a joke?
Oh sorry, all of these projects are a joke.
It looks terrible compared to the rest of the current wavepool tech available
It's the same tech as PSSC. Potential is there
@@surfcoach looks horrible. Drop in 2 turns and that's it. That containing wall looks too small to generate a proper peak and even if it deed..... the depht maybe not enough.

@@surfcoach but the pool is way too small so it won't work unfortunately
Looks dirty
It's clean. Constantly filtered.
That place looks horrible
Hating for no reason 😂😂
@@mattress9074 nah , I definitely have a reason , that mushy-ass 2 ft wave looks like dookie island to me , it’s almost embarrassing 😂
Nah.... that's a rubbish wave pool.
what a waste of money
I dont think this project will be a success.
Video went totally viral ...... these Generation Z youngsters need to get a grip on life and a perspective on the world they are living in.
2 Million views is Viral ?
Show me all your non-viral video's with those normal 2 million views ❤️
Not the first…. Get your facts right, don’t be an asshole - DYOR Bad Boekelo was there since ww2
The water looks ugly.....They should clean it up.....and put the sun...Ahah!!
Ik heb liever over schenvingen! Waneer woont ik in Nederlands no veel surfers waren! net als CA - too many kooks now!!!
