Diverging and converging swells to make surfing waves
Disclosed in the current invention is a way to build a low cost and highly efficient surf pool by using diverging and converging swells to create waves for surfing. When a plurality of individual plunger wave generating devices or a single triangle pyramid shaped plunger, force a diverging swell into a first end of a surf pool. The swell then diverges or expands outward until the swell is wide enough to break over an artificial surfing reef. When a plurality of individual plunger wave generating devices in different opposite locations in the surf pool pushes a swell into the surf pool, as the swell transverses it converges into a single swell, which then continues to travel and breaks over an artificial surfing reef.
