“The SurfStream® is a stationary ocean-like surf park and the only patented surf machine in the world that provides authentic surfing on real surfboards with the ability to deliver multiple wave types in one machine. This means that Chicago Surf at Montrose Beach can offer a flat wave type with adjustable water speeds and depths for beginners, and can quickly be changed to manageable 1’ waves… up to challenging 6’ waves breaking left, right or both!” — courtesy ChicagoSurf.com

Chicago Surf will also include a beachside café and large patio seating, offering a front row seat to the surfing action while enjoying menu items such as fresh salads, wraps, sandwiches, fish tacos and more, complemented by seasonal craft beers and cocktails. A portion of the patio will be covered featuring flat-screen televisions allowing sports fans to cheer on their favorite teams – or catch major surfing competitions streaming live from Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand and California.

Created by Chicago native K.C. Hoos, Chicago Surf is the first and only concept of its kind in the city.

Chicago Surf sessions will be priced at $20 per person for 30-minute and hour-long experiences available too.
