Surfing in Sydney's west will be a reality when surf park Urbnsurf opens in Sydney Olympic Park in early 2019.
The new MCG-sized development is aimed at surfers of any skill level, and uses a leading wave-generating technology developed in Spain called Wavegarden to pump out 1000 two-metre high waves every hour.
LED lighting will allow visitors to surf day and night, whether you’re on a shortboard, longboard, bodyboard, kneeboard or stand-up paddleboard.

Urbnsurf parks are also expected in Melbourne and Perth.
