    Nick welcomes you to the podcast and explains who we will interview, when we will release a new episode, how long they will be and why he is doing this.

    "I'm really stoked to be at the forefront of sharing wave pool news and views from many of the global players in the surf lagoon industry. It's a fascinating alternative property development to traditional golf courses and there are so many big issues to discuss. In the words of the WSL CEO, surfing is now at a major inflection point. Why? Due to the proliferation of cool surf images on social media, inclusion of surfing in the 2020 Olympic Games and because of the rise of the machine driven wave pool.

    I really hope you enjoy all the hard work Bryan, myself and our team are putting into this."

    Thanks,

    Nick

    Welcome to our first episode! We start with Bryan Dickerson who founded www.wavepoolmag.com in 2018 and has experienced rapid growth on the platform. During the half-hour chat we learn about Bryan's surf journalism background and how he created the site. We talk about the state and history of the surf industry and how the "wave pool space" came about. It's a pretty big business right now with a lot of money being spent on many projects around the world.

    We hope you enjoy the idea of the podcast!

  • The first dedicated surf park in the world!
    Oct 18 2019

    Andy Ainscough relates the story of how Adventure Park Snowdonia (originally launched in 2015 as Surf Snowdonia) was conceived, built and run. Many pitfalls lurk in a wave pool developers timeline and Andy was lucky enough to overcome them all and now surfs regularly in his creation. The beauty of it is, tons of surfers join him every day in this rustic Welsh valley. It's an iconic place to surf, I know its definitely on my list.
