Blair Conklin has made no secret of his love of wave pools. He’s ridden a lot of them, too, whether testing out the PerfectSwell-powered O2 Surftown MUC in Germany, or a tearing across a 60-foot-wide standing wave at Lakeside Surf Chelan. Most recently, he took a trip to the newly reopened Palm Springs Surf Club (PSSC) to put the slab through its paces.
PSSC is perhaps equally famous for both its much-hyped opening at the beginning of the year and the subsequent mechanical issues that closed the facility to the public multiple times afterwards. However, the wave has actually been open to private bookings for months now, a fact that Blair took advantage of in his most recent YouTube post. In it, he went on a marathon session to test out a wide variety of boards and filming equipment. You can see the results below.
