Surfing in... Germany?

by Justin Glow Mar 22nd 2007 @ 3:00PM

Just outside the Haus Der Kunst museum in Munich, Germany, a torrent of water gushes through an open canal creating rapids for German surfers (all three of them!) to hang zehn. This reminds me of the fake wave machine, Boogie Bahn, at the single greatest water park on earth, Schlitterbahn, located in New Braunfels, Texas. Only it's quite a bit colder in Germany, and by the looks of this canal, it's the only place on earth where you're in danger of hitting a tree while surfing.

I know a few guys who've been here. Apparently, the localisim is ridiculous - if you don't live here don't surf here and all the childish rubbish.

Ah, mate, you're in a river, not bloody sunset beach..
