ABSTRACT:
A surfing wave pool assembly has a construction so that a continuous front breaking, surfing wave is established. This permits body surfers or surfboards to surf on the forward edge of this advancing wave for most of the length of a pool. The continuous wave front is established by the rapid discharge of water from an elevated reservoir into the deep end of the pool over a reef. A substantial amount of water in the entire assembly is saved by utilizing an elevated floor in the reservoir and a restricted area conduit from the elevated reservoir to openings at the deep end of the pool. The elevated reservoir establishes a sufficiently high head of water to create a surfing wave, yet the elevated floor and the restricted area conduit means substantially limit the volume of water in the assembly required to create the surfing wave. The foregoing abstract is merely a resume of one general application, is not a complete discussion of all principles of operation or applications, and is not to be construed as a limitation on the scope of the claimed subject matter.
