Problems solved by technology

However, the above requirements are usually difficult to meet at the same time, and the narrow and long available space leads to the reduction of the water-skiing surface.
[0005] In addition, the large size of the above-mentioned water ski equipment makes it impossible or difficult to transport between different locat

Embodiment Construction

[0035] In order to better understand the features and advantages of the present invention, an explanation of some terms is given first. It should be noted here that the meanings of these terms are not limited to the given explanations, but the explanations given here should be regarded as a supplement to the common meanings of these terms.

[0036] A deep current is a current of sufficient depth that pressure disturbances from the waterskier and his equipment are not significantly affected by the presence or absence of structure on the underside of the current.

[0037] Surface currents are shallow currents characterized by: 1) being at least deep enough to allow the skier to perform paddling motions; There is a large impact of none, that is, there is a "ground effect".

[0038] The water body is the volume and quantity of water. The water containing a certain water body flows to form a water flow. The water flow containing the water body is constantly changing. The water bod...

Abstract

A waterski (100) having one or more nozzle covers that protect a waterskier without an extended transition surface or a shortened transition surface. The water ski facility (100) consists of a plurality of modules (211, 212, 213, 214, 215, 216, 217 and 218) and other incidental components for easy transport between different locations by truck, train or other means of transport. The sliding nozzle cover (150) enables the water skier to safely slide through the nozzle or water gate area without being injured or affecting the normal progress of water skiing activities. The nozzle guard (150) is constructed of contoured, flexible sheet material that can be extended to cover the upper surface of the nozzle/water gate (130). A soft downwardly curved tongue (160) is provided which blocks the flow of water (138) and prevents a potentially injurious collision of the waterskier with the nozzle area. The shape of the tongue (160) also provides a shorter transition surface for a water skier to safely slide over. The combined use of the fixed deck (190) and the nozzle cover (150) enables the water skier to perform various new and more exciting water skiing and surfing actions.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a wave-simulating water-skiing facility capable of supplying upward water flow to an upwardly inclined water surface; in particular, to a mobile water-skiing facility with a sliding nozzle / water gate cover, and the sliding canopy can control the flow of jetting water. The nozzles / gates act as a covering to provide protection to the skier in the absence of an extended transition surface between the ski surface and the nozzles / gates. Background technique [0002] Generally speaking, a common laminar wave simulation water skiing facility includes an inclined water skiing surface, and supercritical laminar flow can be sprayed on the inclined surface. The water flowing up through the rear and side walls of the incline is collected and received by an attached receiving basin and sent back through a pipe to a container or pump basin, which is then pumped to the inclined plane. Using appropriate sports equipment such as water...
