How it works

EpicSurf is a deep-water standing-wave design built by ADG. Water is pumped over a shaped underwater profile to hold a stationary rideable face several feet deep, letting surfers use standard shortboards with fins. Speed and shape are adjustable, so the same wave can run beginner-friendly or full-speed for airs and rail work.

No. EpicSurf is a deep-water standing wave, not a sheet wave. Riders use real short surfboards with fins in the water instead of foam sheet-wave boards.
