Webber Wave Pools have unveiled proof of concept of the artificial surfing formula that generates continuously breaking waves around a central island.

Greg Webber, the visionary behind a project that kicked off in 2002, has shared a few photos of the perfect flawless waves on the official Facebook page. Webber Wave Pools released three common configurations that may be used in the first commercial license of the Australian surf park idea.

The first one is a 75-meter wave pool which accommodates six one-meter high waves. The second option is a 100-meter wave pool that may pump either four two-meter high waves, six 1.25-meter rides or ten one-meter wave faces.

The battle in British surfing is finally over. Surfing Great Britain and the UK Pro Surf Association (UKPSA) reached an historic agreement over future co-operation for the benefit of surfing in the country.

The UKPSA has operated independently of the NGB for a number of years, with elite and professional surfers competing in events around the country for the prestigious titles.

Contests run by the UKPSA have become recognised as setting the standards for efficient and professional contest management in recent years.

Surfing GB has been revitalised over the last few months by committees of dedicated volunteer surfers, led by iconic and inspirational figures, such as former British and European Champion, Nigel Semmens.

Rock stars enjoy surfing. The sport of riding waves is a great of escaping the pressure of big crowds, media, paparazzi and fans. Surfing and rock and roll has always been a successful alliance.

The Beach Boys kicked off an entire generation of music and waves. Although there was only one surfer in the band led by Brian Wilson, The Beach Boys were the ultimate surfing music group.

In the last two decades, many rock stars have tried surfing and they've loved it so much that their tight tour schedules may even include special free time moments in the world's best surf spots. So, are there famous surf musicians or surfers who rock? Yes, more than you'd probably imagined.

Metallica's Kirk Hammett and Robert Trujillo are frequent surfers. When they're not playing stadium-sized concerts, you may find them riding waves in Portugal or Morocco. Trujillo has even partnered with a famous Australian surf brand to market a new line of boardshorts.
