The WOW Company developed the Wave Ball, a sphere-shaped object floating in a pool. An ingenious idea, it is the result of many years of research and development in the fields of fluid physics, mathematical modelling, electronics, mechanics and data processing.

Wave Ball for Survival & Rescue Training

The waves produced by the “Wave Ball” can be adjusted from small ripples to heavy swell. The resulting waves look like open sea waves and can reach up to 2 metres from crest to trough. Nine models are available and will be chosen as a function of the size of the pool and the size of waves expected.
