Abstract: A wave generating foil for use in a wave pool is disclosed. The foil has an inner surface that extends from a leading edge to a trailing edge, and the inner surface also extends below and above the water line of the wave pool. The inner surface faces the shore of the wave pool and is constructed to be propelled along a travel line that defines a shore side and an opposite side. The inner surface has (1) a first section that extends away from the leading edge and runs substantially parallel to the travel line; and (2) a second section that extends away from the first section towards the opposite side.

Abstract: Various improvements for mitigating low frequency noise (LFN) in a wave making apparatuses are disclosed. These improvements use a variety of structures to mitigate LFN formation emanating from the rapid depressurization of the chambers during the release water into a pool. The improvements include a variable pressure relief/exhaust valve opening speeds, a pressure relief slit on the exhaust port, a secondary pressure relief/exhaust valve, an active absorption panel and a passive absorption panel. Each of these improvements may be used alone on in combination with each other.

Abstract: A wave generating apparatus mobile application controller and method are provided in which a mobile controller actuates a plurality of wave generating chambers in sequence using a delay between the actuation of each chamber to produce a rideable wave in a pool. The mobile application controller allows the user to select the exact type of wave to be produced by the wave generator apparatus by selecting the size, shape, and pattern of the wave. The application also allows the user to use a camera to photograph or record herself or someone else, even while riding a wave.

Abstract: A wave generating apparatus is provided, comprised of a wave pool, a wave generating chamber, and a filtration system. The filtration system comprises an intake, a pressurized return that releases water, and a filtration pump that pumps water from the intake to a pressurized return while filtering debris from the water. The pressurized return is located at a higher elevation relative to the intake. Water flows directionally from the pressurized return to the intake.

Abstract: A wave making apparatus for use with a wave pool having water is disclosed. The apparatus includes a wave making chamber having an interior and a plurality of chamber walls. The chamber also has a passageway connecting the interior to the wave pool and constructed to allow water to flow there-between. A water vane is disposed of in or adjacent to the passageway. The wave vane includes at least one smooth and curved water vane wall, which, in combination with the plurality of chamber walls, creates at least two conduit paths for the water flowing between the interior and the wave pool. The conduit paths have two ends, and the water enters one end in a first direction and exits the second end in a second direction.

Abstract: An aquatic sports amusement apparatus includes a plurality of wave generating chambers that release water into a pool. A plenum is pneumatically connected to each chamber and a plurality of fans is connected to the plenum to pressurize the plenum. A plurality of sensors is also connected to the plenum and measure the pressure of the plenum. And a plurality of vents is connected to the plenum and release pressure from the plenum upon actuation. A controller connected to the vents and sensors, performs the following steps: (a) measure the pressure from a sensor in the plurality of sensors; and (b) if the measured pressure is greater than a preset set point pressure, then actuating a vent from the plurality of vents to release pressure.
