Surfing in a Wave Pool
What is truly possible when nature is set to one side and instinct is replaced with passion, determination and skill?

Great, kid. You can do backside/frontside airs and slashes and/or additional combinations ad nauseum at the wave tank. Was the music supposed to make it better?

@daleastor Surfing has become more of how many lips can you smash through and how many airs you can pull.

Don't get me wrong. This Dubai tank is freakin' cool. I'll be first in that water if I ever make it there. Wonder if it's salt, or freshwater? Probably fresh.

@daleastor Salt would be too corrosive over time. I totally agree. Was watching the Signature Series from Huntington Beach and all they were doing was catching air. Got old super quick.

@Dear Leader
Salt makes better waves, and better for beginners. I know there are some that run salt, like the huge Siam Park/Wave Palace/Thailand. The water in this Dubai tank looks to be either/or at times. But then, this isn't "Dubai" proper - it's the Wadi tank in Al Ain which is quite a bit offshore. Maybe desalinated?

Massive concrete wall at the end of the wave looks a little dangerous

Aside from the hajii tents, this looks like palm springs.
