The Lost Wave

Surf's Up! For the 2012 season, we are proud to introduce a big addition at the Aquatic Center: The Lost Wave. A "wave in a box," this surf-simulator will give Midwesterners the chance to surf in their own backyard.

Rather than being a thrill-based ride, The Lost Wave is an amenity that requires the development of surfing skill. While patrons with wakeboarding and snowboarding experience may have a leg up, swimmers of varying skill levels are invited to give surfing a try! To body board, a swimmer must be at least 42 inches tall. To stand up, a swimmer must be at least 52 inches tall.

Seeking to make this ride approachable for everyone, The Lost Wave will give novices a chance to try a board sport in a safe environment, but also provides a challenge for experienced surfers. While a veteran rider may develop the ability to do tricks, the newbie can simply enjoy riding the wave, all while building confidence "hangin' 10." A skill to be mastered over time, there's no telling who will rule the waves this summer.

Private FlowRider Sessions

Master your skills at body boarding or stand-up riding with an experienced Flow boarding instructor. With one-on-one private lessons from our experienced staff, you have the potential to learn the basics of riding the FlowRider's surface, how to ride it safely, surfing and snowboarding-style maneuvers, skateboard-style tricks and more. Lessons are great for kids and adults who want to improve their skills, practice for Flow boarding competitions or just want to ride the wave for fun!
