More About Surf Experience (Surf X)
SURF EXPERIENCE
Get ready to ride the wave at Surf Experience (Surf X), one of the most exciting and unique attractions at Pecan Lake Entertainment. Designed for thrill-seekers, beginners, and everyone in between, Surf X delivers the fun and challenge of surfing in a controlled, high-energy environment that keeps guests coming back for more.
Built by Murphy Waves, Surf X is a true wave simulator, not a FlowRider. This distinction matters. Instead of a thin sheet of water over a hard surface, Surf X generates a powerful, rideable wave that more closely mimics real ocean surfing and bodyboarding. The result is a smoother, more realistic experience that allows riders to progress, learn, and build confidence while still having a blast.
WHAT MAKES SURF X DIFFERENT
Surf X stands out because it is designed to accommodate a wide range of skill levels in a single session. Whether it’s a first-time rider trying bodyboarding or an experienced surfer looking to challenge themselves, the system adjusts to meet each guest’s needs.
Sessions run one hour on the hour and can host up to 20 guests per session, making Surf X ideal for families, groups, and parties. A built-in divider allows multiple riders to be on the wave at the same time, increasing ride time and keeping the energy high throughout the session.
RIDE YOUR WAY
Surf X offers multiple riding options so guests can choose the experience that feels right for them.
- Bodyboards with handles for beginners who want extra stability
- Bodyboards without handles for riders ready to advance
- Surfboards for guests who want to try standing and carving on the wave
The system also features adjustable water pressure, allowing staff to tailor the wave intensity based on rider weight and comfort level. This customization helps ensure a safe, enjoyable ride for everyone, from kids to adults.
DESIGNED FOR FUN, SAFETY, AND PROGRESSION
Safety and comfort are a priority at Surf X. Riders are guided by trained staff who help manage sessions, explain riding techniques, and adjust settings as needed. The wave is engineered to deliver excitement without overwhelming guests, making it a great introduction to surf-style activities.
To ride Surf X, guests must meet a minimum height requirement of 42 inches. This ensures riders are physically able to safely interact with the wave and equipment.
Because sessions are structured and supervised, Surf X is also an excellent attraction for guests who may be trying a wave experience for the first time.
