Abstract
A rotating surfing wave simulator and methods of making surfable waves are provided. The simulator includes a rotatable container of water and a power source for rotating the container. A water-shaping aerofoil structure is disposed in the container for shaping the body of water. A wave-forming device is also provided adjacent and trailing the aerofoil structure, and includes an inclined surface. The aerofoil structure and wave-forming device together form a surfable wave upon rotation of the body of water in the container. Transparent structures may be used to enable spectators to view, from the side or underside, a surfer riding a wave formed on the wave-forming device. Wave enhancing devices are also provided to vary the shape of the surfable wave.
