PerfectSwell(R) Zion To Start Construction
Generation 6 Technology Set for Southern Utah
SOLANA BEACH, CA / ACCESS Newswire / April 17, 2025 / American Wave Machines, the global leader in world-class surf pool destinations, announces a new project, PerfectSwell® Zion, a mixed-use development in Washington, Utah, the outdoor activity hub adjacent to Zion National Park. AWM is partnering with Desert Lakes LLC on the project. The commercial surf park anchors a luxury residential community called Zion Shores offering waterfront single family homes and beachfront townhouses. PerfectSwell® Zion will be open to the public with Zion Shores residents enjoying unique perks and surf priority. PerfectSwell® Zion opens in Q1 2027.
Capping four years of in-house R&D, the project will feature Generation 6 PerfectSwell® surf technology bringing bigger, better waves, improved efficiency, cutting-edge sustainability features, and AWM's most innovative wave package yet. Gen 6 features optimization diagnostics utilizing historic and real time data, innovative health monitoring, maintenance schedules, and a thermal design system for air and water temperature management. Further improvements in pneumatics have resulted in measurable increases in wave generating efficiency. In terms of design, natural and permanent elements will be utilized for energy dissipation in the water minimizing the use of fabricated materials. For the surf and aquatics recreation, the project will upcycle brackish water - unfit for drinking or farming - conserving fresh water and reducing waste.
"We have just about every outdoor activity you can think of in this high desert playground except surfing. We're stoked to partner with AWM to change that. The team behind PerfectSwell® is the real deal," said Cody Larkin, CEO of Desert Surf, LLC. "AWM makes the type of waves they want to surf with a mandate of continuing innovation. We're ready to go."
"Gen 6 PerfectSwell® is next level, and I can't think of a better location for the debut or a better partner in the US. Desert Lakes brings a wealth of expertise in civil construction and community infrastructure building, essential for a successful project," said Bruce McFarland, President of AWM. "We're thrilled to work with Cody and his team to expand our global network of deeply connected surf communities to Utah and beyond."

TIS Helps Treasury Teams Navigate the Ongoing ISO 20022 Transition After the 2025 Banking Deadline10.12.2025 14:00:00 CET | Press release
BERLIN, DE / ACCESS Newswire / December 10, 2025 / Treasury Intelligence Solutions (TIS), a leading cloud-based platform for payments and cash management, is future-proofing organizations with specialized translation services in the wake of the recent November 2025 ISO 20022 deadline.
