Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3885011A1] Provided is a surfing wave-making apparatus that is capable of making the so-called tubular plunging breakers which are suitable for surfing, and which have continuous crests ranging from a collapse stage to a stage immediately before collapse. The present invention comprises: a container body110 that is open at the front thereof, is equipped with at least a bottom part, and is capable of trapping water in part of the inner space thereof; and a moving track 120 that allows the container body 110 to travel thereon and that is equipped with a slope surface track 121 and an in-pool track 123. The container body 110 falls along the slope surface track 121, plunges into water of the pool as a result of free-fall motion, and travels on the in-pool track 123 in the container body 110 decelerates, only the water held inside is thrust forward in the form of an isolated traveling wave 202 so as to produce a plunging breaker suitable for surfing.
