Scottish big wave pro surfer and Red Bull Athlete, Ben Larg, talks about how Lost Shore will transform Scottish surfing
Coming to Scotland.
With a beachfront stretching for 250 metres, the surfing lagoon is going to be the biggest across all of Europe, but it is also going to be one of the most advanced on the planet. The cutting edge wave technology, developed by Wavegarden, is capable of producing up to 1000 customisable waves per hour, from 52 software driven modules.
Rides of up to 22 seconds, and with more than 20 different varieties of waves, there are opportunities for all abilities.
Lost Shore Surf Resort will be the largest wave pool in Europe both in size and in terms of wave producing modules (52).
This allows Lost Shore to maintain the size of the wave for a longer time, offering rides that will be on average, 30% longer compared to other facilities and producing waves that last as long as 22 seconds.
This latest iteration of Wavegarden’s Cove technology features a new Delta shape and depth that apart from increasing the beachfront area, also improves the currents in the pool and therefore the wave quality.
Thanks to the fact that it is a software driven technology, Lost Shore will be able to push any waves that already exist in Wavegarden’s wave menu, air section included, and any other waves that might be created in the future.
South Korea uses the more traditional shape of pool (same as Bristol and Melbourne), the Scottish wave pool will be using the new Delta shape and be one of the first parks with this new design.
Korea has 56 modules, which is the most in any Wavegarden facility in the world. When Lost Shore opensit will be second to them with 52.
