Key anchor tenants at Festival Bay include Pro Shops, Skatepark, Surf Shop, and a 20-screen theater. The Surfpark will be located between the theater and the skatepark, with a themed, high-visibility entrance from the parking lot and an interior mall entrance via the Surfpark Pro Shop and restaurant. Key Surfpark Features/Attractions: • Large Surf Pool (4-8 foot waves, 70-100 yard rides) for intermediate-advanced surfers/bodyboarders. • Training Surf Pool (3-4 foot waves, 30-35 yard rides) for beginners-novice surfers/bodyboarders. • Flowrider™ standing-wave attraction for non-surfers. • Surf School and High Performance Training Program. • Surf Shop • World Surf Travel themed restaurant • Extensive viewing, dining, and private function areas. • Event stage overlooking the Large Surf Pool. The Surfpark Concept The Problem A perfect natural surfing wave requires a precise mix of wind, swell, tide, and sea-floor contour, and these elements synchronize in only a handful of locations around the world. In spite of its elusive playing field, surfing has undergone explosive growth in the last decade. Fueled by massive exposure in 1 of 36 mainstream media, participation rates have increased at over 20% per year for the past three years, and there are now an estimated 2.4 million surfers in the US. Currently, all but the most remote world-class surf breaks are now dangerously overcrowded. Demand for quality surfing waves far outstrips supply. It is not uncommon to see over 250 surfers vying for waves at a single surf spot. The Solution A solution to surf overpopulation is to create new waves with technology. Artificial reefs have recently been installed in select locations, but these reefs still rely on the presence of optimal swell, wind, tide, and sand to break suitably. For reliable wave quality, a safe learning environment, and increased access for inlanders, all of these factors must be controlled. This is the Surfpark Experience: Perfect surfing waves in a completely controlled environment. Project Development and Management Aquatic Development Group (ADG), America’s leading waterpark and aquatic facility design and construction company, will handle project management, guarantee wave quality and warranty wave- equipment performance. Startup development and operations process will be assisted with the consulting services of Baker Leisure Group, an Orlando-based consulting company with over 20-years of themed entertainment development, startup, and operations experience. Surfparks LLC (SP) will manage the development, operations, and marketing of the Surfpark and all subsequent SPH facilities. SP’s management team and advisory board include veterans in the operations, development, and marketing of the world’s largest theme parks, waterparks, skateparks, and themed entertainment facilities. The Partnership SPH has entered into a partnership with Worlds Largest Surf Shop (LSS) , Inc. for the Orlando facility. The partnership has three main components: 1. License Agreement: Surfparks has agreed to license the LSS, Inc. brand for the Orlando Surfparks in exchange for LSS Inc. committing approximately $1,000,000 worth of marketing support annually to the Surfparks. Key elements of this commitment include Orlando DMA billboards, network and cable TV spots, radio advertising, magazine advertising, brochure distribution throughout Florida, direct marketing to international tour-group operations, PR, kiosks in its retail locations, and substantial discount-card promotions through regional hotel and guest-services channels. The license fee to LSS, Inc. equals 4.5% of sales of the Surfpark components and 6% of Surfpark component sales in excess of Proforma. Forecasted license fee is currently $255,253. 2. Investment: LSS, Inc. has also agreed to invest $300,000 for the build-out and inventory of the Surfpark retail shop for 3 membership units in SPH (See, “Terms of the Offering”). 3. Retail Manager: LSS , Inc. will manage the restaurant and merchandise the Surfpark Pro Shop, leveraging substantial vendor relationships and discounts. LSS Inc. will receive a management fee of $100,000 per year plus 5% of Pro Shop sales in excess of the Proforma $1.298 million. 2 of 36 Company Overview Industry Analysis Hundreds of wave pools exist in the world today, but every one of those pools has been built as an extension of a waterpark or resort, targeted for casual recreational use. As a result, the design and wave quality in these pools has been deemed unsuitable for skilled surfers. While crude technology to generate surfing waves in a large pool has existed for nearly 20 years, standalone Surf Pools were considered unfeasible due to prohibitive energy costs, slow wave intervals, and poor wave quality. New technology developed by the engineers at Aquatic Development Group (ADG) and ASR Ltd. has now made the perfect surfing wave technically feasible and economically viable. The technology includes the Groundswell Wave System, Wedge pool design, and Versareef computer-controlled adjustable pool floor. SPH has the exclusive North American rights to this proprietary technology, which is capable of creating six perfect waves per minute, each up to 8 feet high with 100-yard rides. SPH also retains right of first refusal to acquire exclusive international technology rights from ADG/ASR. Unlike waterparks or theme parks, the Surfpark experience will be affordable, variable, and exciting enough to warrant frequent return visits. To keep the experience fresh, the wave generators can produce a wide range of wave heights, and both the Big Pool and Training Pool have a computer-controlled floor that allows wave shape, peeling speed, and direction (left/right) to be altered at frequent intervals. Salt water will be used to simulate the buoyancy, smell, and feel of ocean water.

Most beginners are hooked with the first taste of success, and these enthusiasts spend a large portion of their discretionary income on equipment and travel to improve their surfing experience. Surfing and other waveriding sports appeal to a broad demographic, including males and females ages 7-70. The average surfer is in his/her mid-20s with an 85/15 male/female split. The core of our market is part of a rapidly increasing Echo-Boomer population with a proven preference for board sports. Echo-Boomers are participatory sports enthusiasts, they are already 77 million strong, and are expected to grow at a rate 19% faster than the overall population. Not surprisingly, the US surfer population (estimated at 2.4 million) is increasing at a rate of over 15% per year. Due to the favorable climate, large and densely populated coastline, and high overall population, Florida is home to approximately 20% of this number, or nearly 500,000 surfers. Surfer Population Estimates • Both Board-Trac and American Sports Data claim there were 2.4 million “active” surfers in the United States in 2002, a 57% increase from ASD’s 1998 estimate of 1.4 million. About 1 million of these surfers are based on the East Coast, 1.25 million on the West Coast, and 150,000 in Hawaii. • American Sports Data defines the “Very Active” (significantly more than 4 surfs per year) surf population as 20% of the above figures.

Although the act of riding a wave started as a religious/cultural tradition, surfing rapidly transformed into a global water sport. The popularity of surfing is the result of events, innovations, influential people (http://www.surfertoday.com/surfing/9754­the­most­influential­people­to­ the­birth­of­surfing), and technological developments. Early surfers had to challenge the power of the oceans with heavy, finless surfboards. Today, surfing has evolved into a high­tech extreme sport, in which hydrodynamics and materials play vital roles. Surfboard craftsmen have improved their techniques; wave riders have bettered their skills. The present and future of surfing can only be understood if we look back at its glorious past. From the rudimentary "caballitos de totora" to computerized shaping machines, there's an incredible trunk full of memories, culture, achievements and inventions to be rifled through.

  • Development Strategy for G-Land Beach As a Potential Premier Surfing Beach in Indonesia
    THE INDONESIAN JOURNAL OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Vol. 2, No. 5, 2013:509-523 DEVELOPMENT STRATEGY FOR G‐LAND BEACH AS A POTENTIAL PREMIER SURFING BEACH IN INDONESIA Arismunandar and Budi Permadi Iskandar School of Business and Management Institut Teknologi Bandung, Indonesia [email protected] Abstract‐ Tourism in Indonesia is an important component of the Indonesian economy as well as a significant source of its foreign exchange revenues and job creation. For Indonesia economy, In 2011 tourism contributed of Rp. 437.25 trillion to the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) or 13.8% of the total GDP of Indonesia (Source: BPS, 2012). GDP growth of tourism since 2001 had always showed a higher growth rate than the national GDP, which in 2011 tourism GDP growth reached 9.18%, while only 6.5% of national GDP (Source: BPS, 2012) . In terms of foreign exchange, foreign exchange earnings from tourism were the fourth largest contributor, after oil and gas, palm oil and processed rubber(Ministry of Tourism and Creative Economy, 2012)Plekung beach or known as the G‐Land is one of the best surfing beaches in Indonesia. G‐Land is known not only as a surfing beach because of the big wave, but also an exotic tourism area. The beach is located at Alas Purwo National Park that has beautiful panorama and rich of biodiversity. Even so, the name G‐Land in the eyes of the tourists is still low, only known by professional surfers. Several issues for G‐Land are lack of promotion and tourism products. Besides that, infrastructure problems such as inadequate accommodation facilities and difficult access to G‐Land make this a problem more complicated.

  • The Tragicomedy of the Surfers'commons
    THE TRAGICOMEDY OF THE SURFERS ’ COMMONS DANIEL NAZER * I INTRODUCTION Ideally, the introduction to this article would contain two photos. One would be a photo of Lunada Bay. Lunada Bay is a rocky, horseshoe-shaped bay below a green park in the Palos Verdes neighbourhood of Los Angeles. It is a spectacular surf break, offering long and powerful rides. The other photograph would be of horrific injuries sustained by Nat Young, a former world surfing champion. Nat Young was severely beaten after a dispute that began as an argument over who had priority on a wave. These two images would help a non-surfer understand the stakes involved when surfers compete for waves. The waves themselves are an extraordinary resource lying at the centre of many surfers’ lives. The high value many surfers place on surfing means that competition for crowded waves can evoke strong emo- tions. At its worst, this competition can escalate to serious assaults such as that suffered by Nat Young. Surfing is no longer the idiosyncratic pursuit of a small counterculture. In fact, the popularity of surfing has exploded to the point where it is not only within the main- stream, it is big business. 1 And while the number of surfers continues to increase, * Law Clerk for Chief Judge William K.

  • Surfing, Gender and Politics: Identity and Society in the History of South African Surfing Culture in the Twentieth-Century
    Surfing, gender and politics: Identity and society in the history of South African surfing culture in the twentieth-century. by Glen Thompson Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy (History) at Stellenbosch University Supervisor: Prof. Albert M. Grundlingh Co-supervisor: Prof. Sandra S. Swart Marc 2015 0 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Declaration By submitting this thesis electronically, I declare that the entirety of the work contained therein is my own, original work, that I am the author thereof (unless to the extent explicitly otherwise stated) and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it for obtaining any qualification. Date: 8 October 2014 Copyright © 2015 Stellenbosch University All rights reserved 1 Stellenbosch University https://scholar.sun.ac.za Abstract This study is a socio-cultural history of the sport of surfing from 1959 to the 2000s in South Africa. It critically engages with the “South African Surfing History Archive”, collected in the course of research, by focusing on two inter-related themes in contributing to a critical sports historiography in southern Africa. The first is how surfing in South Africa has come to be considered a white, male sport. The second is whether surfing is political. In addressing these topics the study considers the double whiteness of the Californian influences that shaped local surfing culture at “whites only” beaches during apartheid. The racialised nature of the sport can be found in the emergence of an amateur national surfing association in the mid-1960s and consolidated during the professionalisation of the sport in the mid-1970s.
