  • People are surfing an artificial wave in PRAGUE!
    When you think of Prague you think of it's stunning architecture and rich history. But surfing? Yes, there's surfing in Prague at Vlyn Stvanice and there's a group of surfers who rip it daily.
    Thanks for watching! I'm Brad Jacobson and I'll sea ya on the sand.
    Special thanks to Insta360 for sending me their new X4 action cam. It worked great.
    Music (in order of appearance): Duplex Heart, Of water.

    Whaaat? I've been watching your videos for long time but haven't expected to see one from my country of origin at all. Sick. Love it.

      @@BradJacobson There is a very famous surfing wave in Munich, its in an artificial canal of the Iser river that flows in quite a fast current through a beautiful park call The English Garden. It's a popular hangout spot not only for the local surfers but also other local people because having that beautifully clean water carry you through the park is a great fun. Cannot recommend it enough!

    Whoa this is so unexpected and sick! It's cool to see how surf culture can form in the most unexpected places! I love seeing the stoke flourish in places you'd least expect. Had I seen these guys in another place that's more known for surfing, I'd never guess the were from Prague. Surfers around the world seem to have a certain spark that ties them together globally. It's true that "Only a surfer knows the feeling", and it's that "feeling" that leads to a unique camaraderie among surfers.

    From an older dude who grew up surfing in Newport beach now living in Vienna, Austria, this new to me and awesome to see.
    Thank you for sharing this video.
    Made my day. 🤙

    That wave totally reminds of the river wave in Bend Oregon.

    So cool! I grew up in Czech Republic and moved to SoCal and fell in love with surfing. I love your videos and have been following for a while! I’m going back to Prague in a month and for sure want to go here now! There’s another one like this in Brandys which is outside of Prague about 20min and closer to where my parents live. 🤙🏻

    It is actually sketchy falling, 'cause if you don't paddle out of the current into the Eddies on the left or right you get swept down the kayak course. Glad you got to meet Janek. Now I am motivated to go back in August.

    That's awesome! I'm an Aussie living in Prague and I want my kids to be able to learn to surf and had no idea this existed! You should know also there's a famous river wave in Munich as well if you wanted to check that out.

    Artificial surf for the price of a few slats of wood rather than millions of dollars, pure genius.
