Surf Lake
Hihttps://www.bristolpost.co.uk/whats-...ompton-3465566
Learn to surf on a lake with artificial swells.
It sounds interesting.

Well, you know I'm in!Wave height is perfect, right at shoulder height. I wonder why people are in wetsuits. Is it that cold, I wonder?
I have to say though, part of the sport is watching the horizon, getting a feel for the period between the waves, guessing the best one in the set, learning how to time the wave for a perfect takeoff, and being out there with the pelicans and dolphins...

Even better is that when groms become proficient enough that the older surfers start making them use surf etiquette, the surfers give the little ones good-natured grief for breaking the rules. There is a lot of carrying on about snaking, stealing waves, etc...
There aren't many sports in which people of all ages have about the same level of chance for success. Surfing, by being one that does, enables very diverse groups of people get together for great times.
