badass. they have one of those in san diego tho. i was thinking of surfing behind it tho. i went to catalina for school sports and took the catalina express which is a dual hull jet boat. it produces a killer 3-4 foot surf break behind the boat. no way to lose the wave as it curves perfectly like with two boat surfing, but you dont have to worry about running 50k boats into eachother. i wish i had my camera or surfboard. someone needs to ride that stuff. |

i ahve riddin teh one at schlitterbahn, it was not really that fun, they never fully turn it on so that you can ride in the real wave part, only slide up and down in the flat. i have seen a contest where they ride in the curl and it was cool. nice 7-8 ft curl.

The schlitterbahn one isnt all that fun.. you have to wait in line for about an hour then when some people get up there.. they cant adjust to it and they end up just falling off.. not really worth the wait IMO _________________ Hesitation leads to pain |

The cheapest flowrider is about $500,000 installed.
That's awesome on the ship. I'm sure it would be packed all day though. When we went on a cruise with my family in June there was just a waterslide and it had a 5-20 person line to go all day long. _________________ You have just entered the twilight zone. |

Ya that would be the only problem with that thing on a cruise ship there would be a huge line full of little kids waiting to ride it. |
