Abstract A wave pool for generating and controlling rideable waves is disclosed. The wave pool includes an annular pool for containing water. The pool defines a channel having a first side wall, a second side wall and a bottom with a contour that slopes upward from a deep area proximate the first side wall toward a sill defined by a second side wall. The wave pool further includes using a dual sided water dump system, or systems, as well as passive and active wave mitigation and controlling systems, to produce a wave, including the biggest created in a pool environment, that travel around a large open annular or curvilinear channelled pool before being regenerated to then travel in the opposite direction, in a continuous, repetitive, and never-ending fashion. The concept described in its entirety, is a unique system that thus far has not been described previously. It can be used very effectively and easily without overly complicated systems to produce rideable waves of many configurations to be utilised by recreational and professional wave riders and varying forms of watercraft. 104 106 107 100 °o o° o °o ° 0° oo 0 0000 o o °° o0 10 11 102 o 0 o o 00 0 10105 10 o o o o 0 0 o o o o0 o 0° o o °0 0 ° o o o o 108 Figure 1A
