$15 million Backyard Wave Pool – Proven Concept – Now For Sale in Arizona
Prescott, Arizona – A fully patented and operational wave pool, built in the backyard of a private residence in Prescott, Arizona, is now for sale for $15 million. The Wave Source, the company behind the innovative pool, is offering the initial “proof-of-concept” build to fund larger, more accessible projects, aiming to disrupt the increasingly high-end wave pool industry.
The pool’s origins are remarkably grassroots. Co-founder Ash, who owns the land and access to water, recounts the project began with a simple drawing on a piece of cardboard in a Phoenix sandwich shop. “It was literally a piece of cardboard,” ash said. “That’s how it all started. It was like that classic thing you see in movies.”
Despite both Ash and another co-founder being severely dyslexic, they prioritized securing patents before beginning construction. This unconventional approach, combined with a cooperative agreement with the city, allowed The Wave Source to build the pool in just two months.
Professional surfer Ben gravy was among the first to experience the pool, initially skeptical based on photos. He quickly revised his opinion, describing it as a “massive layout with 3-4ft perfect waves pumping through on command.” He lauded the founders, Tony, Ash, and Justin, for their achievement.
The Wave source intends to continue selling wave pools, but with a focus on affordability and accessibility. Ash expressed concern about the direction of the wave pool market, stating, “We don’t want to do $150-$200 million pools…When did surfing need a Louis Vuitton store next door to the wave? That’s what it’s coming to in this industry. It feels like the culture is being lost. It’s about the wave when it comes down to it.”
