The Surf SeriesThe Surf Series

Integrating the Surf Series products into one venue creates a platform for enthusiasts to learn how to surf. They can paddle and stand up on the SurfCatcher™ and practice carving turns on the SurfRider™.

Let’s go surfi ng now everybody’s learning how

Boardsports such as surfi ng, snowboarding, skateboarding and fl owboarding are skill-based activities that challenge riders to develop new tricks to emulate their heroes. By comparison, the typical water park or theme park rides are thrill-based rides. No skill is required and no reward or accomplishment is earned. The more you ride a thrill

ride the less thrilling it becomes. This is what we call thrill fatigue.

Wave Loch™ technology is the antidote to thrill fatigue. The adrenaline rush of successful challenges met, inspire riders to achieve a never-ending cycle of skill based reward. Thereby increasing rider visitations and loyalty.

Lifestyle

Wave Loch™ DNA is a double helix of wave calculus and wave riding passion. We surf. We live and work at the beach. We infuse our

products with our passion and stay close to our roots. Our products are icons of the California beach lifestyle.

Wave Loch™ attractions create an emotional connection to a multi-billion dollar board sports industry. Our wave

technologies are proven in attracting the valuable youth market, families and boardsport enthusiasts.

When orchestrated correctly, the lifestyle identifi cation inherent in Wave Loch technologies can signifi cantly increase overall venue revenues beyond those generated directly by the waves, including sales of food and beverage, retail products, sponsorship opportunities and corporate and competitive events.

ADVANCED

Wave technologies generate revenue through paid ridership. Every wave has a maximum capacity, a maximum price per ride, and a maximum total possible revenue.

Yet the economics of a Wave Loch™ product aren’t limited to these simple measurements.

Skill vs. Thrill keeps riders coming back. Lifestyle integrity keeps riders on the waves and brings others to watch.

Both of these concepts create opportunities to generate additional revenue.

Each venue has a powerful set of tools available to fi ne-tune the revenue generating power of Wave Loch™ products in a way that best suits its business.

Food & Beverage

Associated Retail

Branded Merchandise

Competitions & Special Events

Corporate & Group Bookings

Sponsorship

The true economics of Wave Loch™ attractions extend beyond the revenue generated directly by the ride.

Revenue GenerationRevenue Generation

Integration of multiple revenue streams is the path to long-term viability and success:

● The show element of the wave offers opportunities with food and beverage service for those watching.

● The lifestyle connection of the wave creates retail and branding opportunities.

● The uniqueness of each wave and the identifi cation with the sports of fl owboarding and surfi ng promotes the sale

of wave-branded merchandise such as boards, t-shirts or wetsuits.

● The skill component of the waves allows for the creation of competitive and special events.

● The communal nature of the wave experience is ideal for corporate and group bookings and parties.

● The strong youth demographic presents outstanding opportunities for sponsorship.
