Is that an iSonic Boujmaa was jumping? Looks bloody hard trying to line up that jump. Be cautious buying any second hand equipment from Poland after this event

they look like they are running out of wind halfway through the jump, but they seem to be getting it dailed towards the end

i wonder if they have ever tried to stack a few fans ontop of one another around the ramp section?

My thoughts too...

Should have a row of 3 fans above the other fans near the jumping area.

That has actually gone backwards since the 90's.

^^ I agree.

I think the fans are too close, so they have good power but it is all at water level. They run out of wind even halfway up the ramp. I am sure all the old school indoor had bigger fans farther away. It certainly was more powered up back in the day

My money says its a Futura...but I could be wrong. Regardless it's not what I expected to see sailed up that ramp.

Fun to watch, but turn the music down...felt like I was stuck in an 80's aerobic tv show with fat cat and friends..............

It`s funny how they canned super X because of people getting, (or potentially getting) hurt.
I reckon this is way more dodgy, especially in waist deep water!

Nothing better than rotational dead stop at apex of jump followed by head fist bail out into waist deep water with a concrete bottom. I'm surprised ohs passed it.

They do make these fans in a twin setup, (one above the other). They're used mainly for cooling bread rapidly in bakeries which is where I used the one we had one many years ago at Dunsborough and it blew about 60 knots!

There only country where this would be an OH&S problem is Australia.

Just look at this muppet in India:

Looks like they could of stacked a few fans in the seats too. The place looks empty apart from the competitors start ramp
