Sitting in the middle of this manmade lake in Queensland Australia, sits a giant machine that creates waves designed for surfing. Using compressed air, it’s pushed upwards, when dropped, it’s shape displaces a perfect ring of water that travels outwards, until hitting several manmade reefs, creating different height surfing waves. Visitors can choose between 5 different areas and wave types, such as a gentle rolling waves for beginner surfers, all the way up to fast and demanding waves for expert and pro surfers, they even have waves specifically design for bodyborders. According to Surf lakes, the system allows for up to 200 surfers and learners each hour. It's the largest surf lagoon on the planet with its 80 megaliters of water volume. ► 5 Waves World Firsts ♦ Simultaneous wave types: 5 types of waves, each of which vary in difficulty, size, length and shape, at the same time ♦ Most breaks in a wavepool: 10 separate waves (4 left and 4 right reef breaks) plus 2 beginner waves ♦ Largest surfing lagoon in the world: Water volume 80 megalitres ♦ Largest wave face height: Up to 2.4m face height. 2.2m achieved at mid-level prototype testing ♦ Highest wave productivity: At full commercial capacity, 5 Waves will be able to produce over 2,400 waves per hour, allowing up to 240 surfers in the lake at the same time, all catching 10 waves per hour Thanks for watching ___________________________________________________________________ CREDIT LINKS ► Surf Lakes Website - www.surf-lakes.com.au ► Surf Lakes Youtube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSsrubE-H29qSN1cGGNUXQQ ► Original Video 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=797PjCSXs_0&t=100s ► Original Video 2 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=342pU381pvQ&t=102s ► Stab Magazine Youtube Channel - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsG5dkqFUHZO6eY9uOzQqow ► Original Video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3mpl_Ry1UHM ____________________________________________________________________ ► Wonder World Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/wonderworld.ytc.10 ► Wonder World Twitter - https://twitter.com/WonderWorld_YTC For business enquiries, content submission or copyright concerns or disputes, please contact me.

no wonder why green water...
is that clean water or ocean salt water...
better clean BLUE water and not green water
It's just not in the same league as Kelly's wave. Kelly's is a long, powerful, properly peeling wave, with different sections of different wave types and features, all connected into one very long wave that is actually technicaly advanced and very challenging to ride properly. As we have seen with the current world's best surfers getting schooled by their own short comings, but then working it out and laying down some amazing fortitude and masterful performances on a massive scale, conquering themselves and the challenge of each wave n the process. And every wave in Kelly's pool is not the same. Which I thoughti, would be, to the point of boringness, but oh no, far from it, although I'm not exactly sure how it happens, but I have some theories. And then there is much more at stake with Kelly's wave. If you blow it somewhere along the line of these long waves, it's greater shame to watch your chance at an epic wave go unridden, especially if you lose the ride in the beginning. And the crowd has too wait for the machine to reset.

A) Make the donut heavier and/or bigger
B) Raise the donut higher before dropping it
C) Install an hydraulic press to generate more force by pushing the donut down harder and faster
D) Do all of the above
What do you think?
It's full of Homo Sapiens Sapiens, the deadliest animal in the history of the planet. There is literally nowhere on the planet safe from these omnivores, and they are already starting to spread into the solar system...
Best to have a piss first before entering.
