), will be part of the commissioning team putting PerfectSwell(R) through the

paces.  New in Japan are software platform innovations like 'Temporal

Distortion', a wave design parameter that will bring additional levels of

control. "Temporal Distortion will lead to an entirely new selection of waves

for both high-performance and learning applications," said William McFarland,

AWM Surf Programmer. "It will add shifting elements to the surf creating a more

dynamic wave overall." Other new features include upgrades to the system's

power response. "Start-up test results confirm that the enhanced performance

response has been achieved," said Lead Engineer Miquel Lazaro.

PerfectSwell(R) Shizunami demonstrates how high-performance surf can be

achieved in urban, surf-centric, relatively smaller footprint locations,

referred to as 'surf arenas'. This scalability demonstrates how PerfectSwell(R)

) can be deployed globally in varied applications. "Surfing is in the Olympics

for the first time only once. This is a watershed moment for the sport," said

provide a consistent platform for athlete training, exhibitions, and events

leading up to the Olympic Games."
