The Dutch city of Rotterdam celebrated on Saturday in its city center the opening of RiF010, an artificial surf pool.
   
The surf pool features state-of-the-art wave technology that ensures consistent and customizable waves, making it an ideal location for surf trainings and competitions.

SOUNDBITE 1 (English): EDWIN VAN VIEGEN, Founder of RiF010
"So this was my idea to make a wave pool in the middle of the city. I was sitting on the other side of the channel and daydreaming about surfing. And then I came up with the idea to build a surf pool here in the middle of the city."

RiF010 was officially opened with a surf festival and a surf competition. 

SOUNDBITE 2 (English): EDWIN VAN VIEGEN, Founder of RiF010
"Rotterdam is not a surf location, obviously. But by creating a new surf spot, we create a new platform for surfers in this area."
