The main idea of Artificial waves not very successful was that the waves made by slater did not form as well as hoped.  
One piece of evidence to support this is from paragraph two, the text states that "The rides were small and mushy." This shows that the waves created were unfit for surfing due to their small size.
Furthermore, in paragraph 3 it states that "It wasn't until 2011 that the surfing world first saw a decent sized artificial wave." This proves that it was a long time until the surfing world actually saw a somewhat surfable artificial wave.
lastly, the text in paragraph 2 states that " The pool catered mostly to small children and non surfers." This leads to the fact that the waves made artificially were not formed suitably for surfers wanting to ride legitimate waves.

Stated in paragraph 1 ''Every surfer daydreams about a perfectly shaped wave that he or she can ride again and again.'' The wave machine solves this problem and many others that can happen by surfing in the ocean .For example ,according to paragraph 1" most surfing spots are pretty crowded". Therefore it could allow more people to surf.Another thing that the wave machine could do is  ''bring the sport to new places.''Possibly where there are no oceans to surf and it could make surfing better. Therefore this machine is a very big game-changer and could be a very big advancement in the sport of surfing.]]> 2017-08-28 18:29:10 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183210381 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183210555 The central idea is that the machine made every thing perfect. or example,"The waves didn't have the bumps, boils, and warbles that ruin even the cleanest waves."Para.2 Furthermore, "These waves from a machine from an old farmland."Para.3 Additionally, " Something about the scene was odd."Para.2]]> 2017-08-28 18:29:45 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183210555 4804081267 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183210588 The central idea of the section is that the waves that were rode were very unusual and no one had ever seen any like it. For example, in paragraph 1,"But something about the scene was odd. Between the waves, ducks floated in calm water the color of tea." Furthermore, in paragraph 2, "And the waves didn't have the bumps, boils and warbles that ruin even the cleanest ocean waves. "Additionally, in paragraph 1, "Surfers had never seen a spot like it: head-high waves for more than a quarter-mile without anyone to catch them."]]> 2017-08-28 18:29:50 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183210588 4804371098 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211199 The central idea of the text is rivals are trying their best to beat them. Business people fantasize about the cash they could make with ideas that solve these problems.par.2 Rival teams of technological innovators are trying like never before to bring the sport to new places.par.3 Slater had been working with a team that includes a University of Southern California aerospace engineer to beat competitors in Spain, Germany, Australia and San Diego.par.3]]> 2017-08-28 18:31:27 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211199 4804271181 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211202 By Aniya, Darci, and kaili

The central idea of this section is that artificial waves are not efficient for surfing and are hard to create for surfing purposes. For example, "No one had seen a perfect artificial wave until 2011". Despite this, "in 2015 a Spanish engineer and a German sports economist created a wave park that was seemingly 'perfect' for surfers." Sadly, everyone was disappointed when the park closed due to technical issues. "The first wave park made to train surfers..."]]> 2017-08-28 18:31:28 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211202 4804203180 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211297 Johnny Clarke and Elian Montanez
The central idea is surfers around the world searched for Slater's secret spot only  to see it is behind a locked gate. For example, ''..... surfers and surf media.... did their own detective work."Pag.10. Additionally, " Surfers from California to Australia traveled to see the wave, only to be turned away by a locked gate and a security guard."Pag.11. Furthermore, " They figured out his secret spot is outside the Central Valley town of Lemoore."Pag10.]]> 2017-08-28 18:31:39 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211297 4804295342 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211490 Andrea, Kate, Samantha

The central idea of the section "Machines Could Lead Surfing to the Olympics" is that there are pros and cons of making artificial waves. For example,  "Parks will be capable of making bigger waves like Slater's, they probable won't choose to. It would raise energy costs and reduce the number of waves," stated in paragraph one. Furthermore, "It might be what gets surfing into the Olympics," from paragraph two. Additionally, "Some surfers don't think wave parks completely recreate the experience of surfing in the ocean," in paragraph three.]]> 2017-08-28 18:32:07 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183211490 4804356571 https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183212689 Gaby,Emily, and Vivy: The central idea of this section is, people around the world searched for Slater's secret surfing spot only to find that it was miles from the coast. For example, in paragraph 2 "Slater kept his 'secret spot' a mystery.". Furthermore, in paragraph 2 "He didn't say where it was other than it was 110 miles from the coast.". Additionally, in paragraph 3 "Surfers from California to Australia traveled to see the wave, only to be turned away by a locked gate and security guard."]]> 2017-08-28 18:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/diana_wenrich/ejputp4qx6eq/wish/183212689
