Abstract: A wave generation system may comprise a submerged platform. The submerged platform may be attached to the bottom of a body of water by cables or pilings. A wave generator may be coupled to the submerged platform. The wave generator may create waves above the submerged platform. The shape of the submerged platform may dictate the shape of the waves. The submerged platform may be adjusted by raising or lowering the submerged platform. The shape of the submerged platform may be adjusted by adjusting the pitch of various sections of the submerged platform. A portion of the energy in the generated waves may be transmitted beyond the submerged platform and dissipated by a surrounding body of water.
