Real waves. Engineered by real surfers.
Forget everything you think you know about artificial waves.
American Wave Machines has invented an entirely new class of surf generators, delivering rides so authentic that you can almost taste the salt water.
Our technology also offers unprecedented levels of flexibility, allowing you to adjust the size, strength, even the shape of waves to accommodate everything from kids in inner-tubes to highly skilled surfers.
From North America to the Caribbean to Asia, American Wave Machines is transforming resorts and water parks around the world with our unique surf machines and surf pool generators.
No one has spent more time studying the fluid mechanics of ocean waves, using state-of-the-art computer modeling techniques to map the intricate relationship of wind, water, and gravity.
And no one has deeper roots in surfing traditions. In fact, American Wave Machines President Bruce McFarland’s great uncle Charles “Sonny” Wright won the very first national surfing championship, riding his 130-pound longboard to victory back in 1925.
Surfing has come a long way since then. It’s not just a sport. It’s an experience, a lifestyle, and a $3 billion industry. So why settle for conventional simulators? With American Wave Machines, you can provide the ultimate experience.
