What Pro Surfers really think of Surf Snowdonia

Surf Snowdonia, heard of it? It’s that wave pool in Wales, the one that’s been drained twice within the first month it was opened. Red Bull UNLEASHED upon it, Albee Layer won that event. Is that ringing any bells? It’s been the topic of interest and debate. Apparently people feel quite strongly about this whole wavepool ordeal. But what do the pro’s really think of it? Zeke Lau says it’s kind of like lowers, Crewsy says it’s like snapper on a fat day and Evan Geiselman says Macaronis. Some of the world’s best discuss the Snowdonia dilemma right here.
