Interesting. Yet another site I should visit should I ever find myself visiting the UK. I wonder if they'll have a rental shop of some kind over there...

A wave pool in London?

Good grief - imagine the queues, the cost, the parking.... :roll:

It'd be quicker and cheaper to drive to devon, so I'll keep on doing that. :wink:

It wouldnt be the same, I like being out doors in the fresh air, I think it would be to much like going to the swiming baths an you get that horibul ecowing noise

well apparently when a blue-whale has sex [if thats what they call it it lol] 90% of the sperm floats away to sea...hahaha. so what do you prefer? blue-whale sperm or someones wee lol. but people wee in the sea anyway... lol

btw this fact could be wrong it came from the class weirdo in RE lol.

and i agree it won't be the same... and i bet they heat the pool... that would be weird - well for UKish people anyway.

lol, well i also would still rather go surfing in the sea, i don't think a wave pool could beat the sea anyway...but it would be intresting to see this working

If its as good as they try and make out its going to be good for pro's to practice on 'the same wave' time after time I guess.

But a bit part of surfing is the complexity that is the sea, picking waves etc.

And Salty brine >>>> chlorine.

Man my heart bleeds, with the biggest connnurbations outside the capital, the North has the most crowded waves in the country, East or West. Get a grip and consider yourselves lucky!

heh it wont be the same without old farts on longboards sitting way out back taking all the waves...
