Dutch Water Dreams

Dutch Water Dreams (DWD) was an Olympic artificial whitewater and surfing centre in the Van Tuyllpark in Zoetermeer, Netherlands.

Water was pumped electrically down a series of drops, fashioned in concrete and between plastic bollards.

The centre also contained a FlowRider sheet wave surfing system.

During a periodically check in January 2015, DWD found corrosion on the metal parts in the FlowRider area.

Based on these findings it was decided to close the FlowRiders area immediately.
