Patent ID: 11788309

Abstract:
The invention relates to a surfing installation (10, 10A, 10B) for generating a surfable wave (60), comprising an inclined ramp (50) to the upper end (51) of which water flows via a water inlet (46), which water is accelerated on the ramp (50) to a first flow speed, the lower end (52) of the ramp (50) leading into a region (30) having a lower second flow speed relative to the first flow speed, and a standing wave, in the flow direction, forming in the region (30) as a result of the water flowing at the first, faster flow speed striking the water flowing at the second, lower flow speed. A further functional area for the surfing installation (10) for one or more surfers (80) is achieved, according to the invention, in that at least two walls (506, 508) that define at least one flow channel (504) are arranged in the region of the water inlet (46) and/or of the ramp (50), which walls are movable in rotation and/or in translation, transversely to the flow direction of the water, by means of at least one drive (5046), in order to generate at least one traveling wave (60) that travels transversely to the flow direction.
