Wavegarden - The Future
Pretty cool idea. The Wave Pool was started back in 2005 when engineer Josema Odriozola and sports economist Karin Frisch decided to combine their expertise in designing and building sport facilities, particularly skate parks, with their passion for surfing.
What both entrepreneurs enjoyed most about their skate park experience was seeing the smiles on the faces of the kids who could not wait to try out the new park. They decided to turn to their true passion, surfing, in order to re-create that same feeling for people not fortunate enough to have an ocean break nearby, or where ocean waves are too crowded or of poor quality.
They were convinced that world-class waves could be
generated for any level of surfers anywhere in the world, no ocean required.
Their goal was to try and reproduce the real sensations and experience of
surfing a wave in the ocean under ideal conditions, and the outcome was:
Wavegarden.

Greatest Wipeouts: Best of 2011
We posted a wipeout video earlier this year. But this one is even better! Honestly, all these guys have brass balls. There is nothing worse than a holdown. That feeling you get when you don't know which way is up and which way is down. You can't breathe and are on the verge of a blackout and then when you finally do make it to the surface to catch your breath, you open your eyes and: Oh, hello! There's another massive wall of water to give you a little smooch on the cheek. If you've been there, you know the feeling. Vaya con Dios, brah.

Fighting Fear
This looks amazing. Some of those waves towards the end look mental. Also, it's from Macario De Souza who directed Bra Boys. Which was also an amazing film worth checking out if you have not already.

Seems kind of cheesy. But there's no denying the epicity of this video. Yep, I said epicity.

Kelly Slater's Perfect 10 @ Quicksilver Pro NY
Obviously a little late. But we had to post this. The guy is ageless. It's really remarkable. And while he didn't win the whole thing, this was one hell of an effort.
