URBNSURF Melbourne

Brand: URBNSURF
What: Wavepool in Melbourne!
Opens: Summer 2020

URBNSURF Melbourne Said: Making first waves signals another breakthrough for the park, as URBNSURF Melbourne prepares to open to the public in Summer 2020.

Utilising Wavegarden’s next-generation Cove technology, URBNSURF Melbourne’s MCG-sized surfing lagoon will deliver high-quality, authentic surfing waves every hour, day and night, year-round. At the push of a button, the size, shape, power and frequency of the waves can be adjusted to suit all abilities, from first-timers through to elite athletes.

As part of its commissioning process, URBNSURF has commenced testing a range of wave types, including a “Malibu” wave perfect for learners and beginners, “Giros I” and “Giros II”, two turns waves designed for intermediates to practice and hone their skills, and “Tubos”, a steep, barrelling wave to challenge and excite advanced surfers.

Over the coming weeks, URBNSURF will be adding further wave types to its “wave menu”, ahead of welcoming surfers of all abilities to sample the perfect, ocean-like conditions, just minutes from Melbourne Airport’s terminals and a short drive from the CBD.

Our Thoughts: Lots. But generally just super excited to go test it out and see how it performs. Nothing beats the ocean for us, but the quality and availability of what URBNSURF Melbourne is producing definitely has keen for a quick flight down to sample it 🙂

Bigger interview/article via Broadsheet Melbourne if ya want more over here – Timmy Fisher, ex ASL Editor penned it. Good read.
