Case studies

Wherever you're building, there's a venue out there that's already proven it works.

A person surfs on a simulated wave at Waterbom Bali’s outdoor wave pool near the beach, surrounded by spectators, palm trees, and a blue sky with scattered clouds.

Proof is in the Water

FlowRider turns a stay into a booking decision.

Margaritaville Hollywood Beach
Parents tell Joanie Bowden, Director of Recreation and Atmosphere, the same thing again and again: their kids chose this resort because of the FlowRider.

The FlowRider has become much more than an attraction. It is a signature experience that helps define the resort… a destination within the destination.

Revenue Generators

Every guest touchpoint generates revenue. On property, the wave works in step with dining, bookings, and walk-up traffic.

Private Lessons & Buyouts

What This Looks Like in Practice

Site Considerations

Focus
Beachfront or boardwalk sightline placement that works as a live billboard, positioned near a bar or restaurant to drive dwell time in both directions.

Operating Considerations

On a strong day, the wave runs 100+ riders and roughly $4,000 in direct session revenue. 2025 brought in nearly $60,000 more than the year before.
A new Real Time reservations integration lets guests book the FlowRider before they arrive, turning same-day walk-up traffic into pre-arrival revenue.
