Surf Resorts?

Pro surfer Kelly Slater and Greg Webber, an Australian engineer and board shaper, are battling one another to be the first to create a surfable man-made wave. Though there have been several failed attempts at making a shreddable artificial break, Kelly Slater Wave Company in LA and Webber Wave Pool in Australia both hope to be the first to succeed. “Within five years, there will be 50 of these,” Webber told Outside magazine in Faking Waves, a great article on the topic.
