ABSTRACT:
A system for producing plunging waves for surfing in a body of water propagates waves over a reef which forms a wave-breaking surface which has a steepness sufficient to cause the waves to break in a plunging mode as the waves traverse the reef. The waves are artificially generated with a steepness sufficient to break in a plunging mode. Multiple waves are generated in sequence along the offshore side of the reef to produce a wave that peels laterally along the reef to produce a wave suitable for tube riding.
