The kid in me would like to try this while the adult in me is afraid of serious injury.
This seems like a great way to dislocate or break a bone! Looks fun though
That guy has a pretty good vertical jump
Reminds me of an old C.S. Lewis sci-fi book (Perelandra) that had massive floating islands on top of the waves like this.

If memory serves, this is in Lake Titicaca?

Perelandra!
I read Out Of The Silent Planet and Perelandra as a boy, enjoyed them.But I couldn’t make it through That Hideous Strength, I put it down baffled and bored one day, and never picked it up again. Now I’m thinking I was too young for it, particularly growing up so far away from the novel’s setting in England.
The first two novels take place in Mars and Venus, so there’s a sense of adventure. But in That Hideous Strength, the mannerisms and situations and dialogue styles are akin to something like Brideshead Revisited in Oxford and/or Cambridge.
While a British boy might get the whole thing intuitively, I grew up in Mexico, so had no mental compass of that world at that age. It was all as confusing to me then as God Emperor Of Dune was later.
I really loved the sense of adventure in both. A lot of people dislike That Hideous Strength relative to the others, so I don’t think you’re alone. I actually loved it, but I was a bit older when I read it. I felt like it was a rare example building an atmosphere of dread and foreboding. However, it’s been many years since I read it. My own opinion of it may be different now.
So no lawyers in Peru?
They could integrate something like this in a parkour and/or obstacle course, with one of those wave-making pools.
I wonder if anyone’s skated a wave before?
