There is a reason surfers travel the globe in search of the perfect wave
We are all looking for that indescribable feeling.
What if we didn't have to travel the world to get it?
What if every river city could have a perfect surf wave?
What if everyone could be a surfer?
My name is Neil Egsgard, president of the Alberta River Surfing Association
And our misson is to build the perfect river surfing wave and share it with the world.
We will tweak old designs, invent new waves test ideas from around the world
and freely share that knowledge with wave builders everywhere.
In the perfect union of engineered design and inspired experimentation we will sculpt waves and shape the future of river surfing.
We have a proven design
We have the perfect location,
we have government support (federal, provincial and local)
and we have the engineers lined up and ready to go.
The only piece we need to turn this dream of a perfect surf wave into a reality we can share with you and the world is the money.
Stage one is the engineering.
With your help to raise the $15,000 for the structural, hydraulic and environmental engineering
we will unite surf seekers everywhere and create the engineered plans for a perfect surf wave.
Those plans with be available on RiverSurfing.ca so you can start building your own wave
Stage two is building the wave.
Building the wave will cost around $200,000
and when built will be free to use.
We will release detailed video of the build
and how the wave changes as we adjust the feature.
So, join the movement,
spread the word,
donate
and start building a surf wave near you.
Help bring surfing everywhere!
