I just arrived back from Sunny Coast Safari.
My brothers & I darted back 'n' forth past this site wrapped in Wavepool Ads.
I'm pretty certain the Local's have given up on it up.

Anyhow %#@%..Nope I still can't say it! Needed a reboot...(tbb)'Bloody lucky them!'
Sunny Locals would love it to hear from swellnetonians or anyone... I guess?

Hi, just joined so I could try and get in contact with you. I'm presently writing a book on the history of punk in Australia up to '99 and conducted over 200 interviews. My knowledge of Gold Coast's scene though is admittedly a little meagre and I came across a post of yours from last year listing bands I was unaware of. Was hoping that I could possibly use some of your knowledge. If you're interested my email is: t_clark (at) hotmail (dot) com (dot) au
Or phone: 0402306569
Cheers, Tristan

That's pretty punk alright tristan.clark...(swellnet punks...'It's a Raid!') No it's not!
tbb & crew relive Gold Coast Punk scene often enough.
Just saying that plenty of swellnet punks can help out as much...crew know who!
Yes! Swellnet deserves a Gold Coast Punk Page...we might also consider that.
That way everyone gets a go & can flesh out entries (Swellnet credit page-for all.)

tbb took a while to unearth Tweed-Lismore & Sunny Coast is buried way deeper.
Yes tristan ...I will call soon enough!

PS: tbb will drum up some oldschool Punkz from swellnet Sunny Coast protest site

No Public submission period
*Waterpark has been down scaled but may also be only Stage 1.
The original loop linear Webber Wave Pool is not visible in this stage.
Pause: This Webber design has held promise for a good while on this site.
It shows that interest is still strong for a Surf Park on Sunshine Coast.

Article does include a small image of more definite Resort Plans
Shows 4 Pools - 2 of which are large enough for a Wave Pool + Flowrider?

State Pushing on Council fast-track approval for Waterpark hits a hurdle.

Actventure Wave pool development
19th June - Qld Courts.
Sanad Capital Pty Ltd -v- Sunshine Coast Regional Council

This wavepool (Stage 1) was previously approved in built resort design.
Current design does seem to (swap) for more residential lots.

(Above -previous legals) re: Infrastructure / Stormwater Bill $2m appeal.
This is the most likely delay as Council will lean on State Govt to foot the bill?

28 Oct Waterpark Developer goes back to Court .
https://theworldnews.net/au-news/water-park-developer-wants-230k-fee-scr...
World Wave Pool Court Clerk tbb :
Sanad wants 'additional' $233,263 stormwater trunk fee scrapped.
Sanad launched an appeal to Planning Environment Court to remove fee.

These charges seem to be additional to Oct 2018 - $2m infrastrucure appeal

Arguing over construction site runoff into waterways
Sanad claim fee is a rort as Council have no stormwater infrastructure.
Sanad place no additional pressure on Council's existing stormwater infrastructure.

Certainly sounds like the perfect case for Lawyers to argue over.

Oct 2018 Map of Stormwater site runoff flows...(Link was cut)
Dug up these web drawer Council Docs (re: Stormwater runoff on this site)
https://publicdocs.scc.qld.gov.au/HPECMWebDrawer/RecordHtml/959262
https://publicdocs.scc.qld.gov.au/hpecmwebdrawer/RecordHtml/7662129

Total infrastructure charges for Qld Wave Pool Water Park Res/Resort = $2.6m
tbb still thinks Qld Govt 'may' have covered most charges for Xmas Gold Spade.

This report confirms Stage 2 Wave Pool
*Endless Surf Pool by industry leader WhiteWater ( re: above.)

End of year start is not ruled out as yet...(2 year Project End Time)

Material change of use, building & operational works permits are needed to begin.
Similar were already approved ...shouldn't be an issue! (I'll see you in court!)

SANAD ACTVENTURE ~ Endless Surf

&t=4s

ACTVENTURE Endless Surf Pool Plans are now available.
These are Comp / Pool Layout plans
https://publicdocs.scc.qld.gov.au/HPECMWebDrawer/Record?q=ApplicationNum...
Interesting that Sunny Media wrote them off...yet they're slowly coming good!

Even better that SANAD also kept original promise of a competitive Pro/Olympic Wave Pool.

These designs will surprise the crew, if only for their commitment to comp surfing raises the bar.
Current Qld / NSW pools are gonna have to step up to better this new level Comp layout.
It seems Endless Surf are gonna play along.

Only guessing that waves could equal Goldie's "Ramped" Endless Surf Wave Pool
tbb tried to measure out the wave height...got a fair way along & can share that!
Can't promise any big wave sets but neither ankle snappers.

Architectural Plans [P 23]: Wave Wall rises 2m above "static water" that levels out at 2.8m deep
Static water level flows over into 1.5m Compartment Pools > (Possible Hydro Power)
When swell rises '1m' for waves it lightly swashes over next inshore swim up Bar Pool at 1m deep.
Waves may pitch above raised 1m swell height but seemingly must stay below 2m wall height.
However! The pool can't raise swell above 1m to ramp higher waves with the Bar Pool operating.
The precise Chamber switching of pools may hydro power the Wave Machine...(It is what it is!)
Should be able to offer different waves but lacks the 'cyclic tide timetables' of Wavegarden Pools.

Comp setup > Spectator Stands / Pro Standard Judges Stand & Replay Screens with Training-First Aid.
Central swim bar to Merch/Stalls > 8 bus bays / 6 taxis...(Very competitive with beach Comp Access)

Similar Wave Pool was previously approved in original Stage One.
So you may see "Approved" on plans as stamping should be a formality.
Also the 2024 opening is loose as SANAD said they can play with stages as need requires.
Stage 2 can fast-track if market dictates...(eg: A rival Sunny operator!)

Stage 1 tenders have been released to public.

PS: Recent [f] / News Pay Wall articles reported on Wavepool...be cool if any could share!

It shows that despite Local Media ridicule & Legal bun fights the development kept true to it's word.
Given the fact that a Water Park company took over...most thought a wading slosh pool downgrade.
The aim of providing an international Comp standard Wave Pool has returned as original core attraction.
Compare the massive Site take up of new design...that's a massive commitment for a developer.
Wave Pools boss prime estate investment along side Accom / Water Parks / Golf / Farms..(A Big Leap!)
Slowly but surely Sunny SANAD are making waves...

I'll add this one here too TBB...

https://www.sunshinecoastnews.com.au/2021/08/06/massive-wave-park-projec...
----------
Developer Sanad Capital, which already has approval for the long-awaited tourism drawcard, this week lodged major infrastructure plans for the site on Steve Irwin Way at Glenview. This encapsulates bulk earthworks, civil works, drainage, stormwater, vegetation clearing, road access and carparking and could mean a project start date is just months away.

Sanad’s plans incorporate a 160-villa family resort called Invigorate, a water park (Actventure) and wave pool (Endless Surf). Sunshine Coast Council will now have 45 working days to look at the infrastructure plans and then the more detailed design work on buildings will follow. Mr Sutherland said much already had been done on this and he hoped the detailed design would be signed off by the end of September.

“We want to work on many of the elements simultaneously and open everything at Christmas in 2023.’’

“In accordance with council’s approval and before construction can commence, a number of further permits and infrastructure is required.”
----------
Just 20km south, at Moby Vic’s Glass House Mountains, the wave pool project proposed by Surf Parks Australia also is advancing. It is applying for a material change of use that would allow two rural-zoned parcels to be used for tourism. The Public Notification period, where people can make submissions, is underway.

----------
The patented heart-shaped Sunshine Coast pool will be similar to one currently being built in Paris and another used during the Tokyo Olympics. Glenview will get the biggest of the firm’s three models, which measures 282m by 84.5m.

“The ability to precisely control the angle of the wave’s face determines the speed, from a gentle beginner wave (2 feet or .61m) to a powerful 7 feet (2.1m) barrelling wave.’’

Ride times range from 10 seconds to 26 seconds and the multiple zones can accommodate up to 75 surfers an hour, with each surfer catching dozens of waves.

tbb feels we can expose an underlying secret as to why Qld Wave Pools shifted focus to Booze'n'Babes.
This then Changes the Make / Model / Design aspect to Pool Bar by default.
C'mon! 7ft Waves Barrelling into a Beach bar disco is a recipe for disaster...so why do this?

QSLS / RLS / Govt clamp down on Municipal Pool & Foreshore Booze.

The surf pool has been designed by Canadian firm, WhiteWater, which will send a team of experts to oversee the installation as the project develops. The patented Sunshine Coast pool will be similar to one the company is building in Paris and another used during the Tokyo Olympics.

Glenview will get the biggest of the firm’s three models, which measures 282m by 84.5m. Endless Surf is a surfer’s dream of on-demand waves. Using a special program called the Wave Doctor, wave patterns can be changed in real-time based, on the session requirements and guests in the pool.

The ability to precisely control the angle of the wave’s face determines the speed – from a gentle beginner wave (2 feet or 0.61m) to a powerful 7 feet (2.1m) barrelling wave. Ride times range from 10 to 26 seconds and the multiple zones can accommodate up to 75 surfers an hour, with each surfer catching dozens of waves.

It’s already looking ghastly around the hospital and the new developments at Bokarina.
Thankfully I moved to the northern hinterland years ago but as everywhere it’s population has grown.

Prominent civil contracting company, Shadforth, has been secured to complete the civil works, which will commence in coming weeks after being delayed by recent bad weather. “We hope we will be surfing in late 2023.” He said the pool would be 288m long and 80m wide. Developer Sanad Capital’s plans for the Glenview site also include 51 two and three-bedroom “lakeside” apartments, 23 three-bedroom “surfside” short-term accommodation units, food and retail outlets, a microbrewery and open-air cinema.

Sprout! Themz fightin' words be fuelling a Sunny Surf'n'Turf War..

Sprout's articles seem harmless enough...but the War is on!
Here's Sprout's mixed Grill in Slomo on the downlow...now watch carefully Sunnyboys!
The game has changed!

16th Dec 2021 Sprout's Wave Pool War begins...
Sanad Endless Surf made a submission against nearby rival Surf Park's AWM Perfect Wave.
"There is no economic need for a 2nd Wave Pool 20km from the ours!" (They really do mean that!)

2nd Wave Pool was approved over the Xmas Break...But that's not the end of the matter...
Far from a bit of healthy competition, we're looking at a Snake like Drop in to wipe out #2.

Ok! tbb...this had better be worth the price of admission & it sure is alright...Promise!
This be a fully blown Wave Pool War!

Sanad has run with > Webber > Family w'n'w Surf Lagoon > Endless Surf...into 2022...but!

Endless Surf recently partnered Myrtle Pools ( Pre Fab Stainless Steel Panels)
Can build & Dismantle a Wave Pool Stadium in months or Surf between hi-rise towers...no problem!
This is a departure from original Concrete Wave Pool Plans...how different...we don't know!
eg: All about the Bikini Bar Pool more than any dumb Wave Pool...think along those lines!

Possible that New Engineering of XL Stainless Steel Pool Panels are not yet approved in Qld.
https://endlesssurf.com/2022/06/13/endless-surf-teams-up-with-myrtha-poo...

For whatever reason Sanad have "Possibly breached" or pulled outta contract with Endless Surf.
(See below for more on that!)

Here's wot tbb thinks is goin' down....First to recap from above...
Sanad said they were riled & are weighing up legal options.
Sanad spend more time in court than in Wave Pools...(see heaps of this shit in above timelines!)
Sanad launched a submission stating they do not want Wave Pool competition so close to shore!

Solution!

With new Endless Surf Wave Pool Tech...gives Sanad option to opt out...& they did!

By switching to AWM Perfect Swell they can now fast track a new contract...but why & by how much?
Sanad likely took advantage of rival's $500k impost & caught out Surf Parks Australia's Licence fee.

Back door was open for Sanad to outbid Surf Parks Australia & secure State Rights to Perfect Swell..

It's possible that Sanad picked up on a loose fit Deposit Contract Loophole...
Perfect Swell aren't fools & more than likely allow 11th hour wriggle room for a rival to up the bid!
Thus cutting out rival Surf Parks Australia from holding a 2nd nearby competing AWM License.

30th June Sprout SC News link > "Sanad signs { Exclusive Qld Agreement with AWM }"

Sanad could pay whatever...as it's cheaper than another court case.
AWM boss confirmed > Sanad will be their 1st in Oz...(Meaning Sanad are fast tracking this stage!)

We could be looking at Sanad stealing Surf Parks (Perfect Swell's joint regional rights).
Sorry to say...it does smell like that as Sanad are Qld Champions on Contractual Law suits.
Really can't see in a Perfect World > Perfect Swell building 2 pools 20km apart...(Not happening!)

Washed up dregz from the Sunny Snake Drop in...
Sanad AWM Pool is 288m x 80m (vs) Former Glass House Mountains Pro AWM was 315m x 92m.
Glass House Mountain's may have run outta options...how so tbb?

Parkwood (From above) will now have 1st & only option on Endless Surf Qld Rights...
Just guessing mind you that Sanad is willing to pay for Goldie's exclusive rights...Money for Jam!
May well be that Sanad merely handed over Qld licence to Goldie to forgo any breach...(It's Possible!)

Urbnsurf have secured Qld Rights & hinted about a Wave Pool in same Briz North region.

Surf Lakes Sunny Coast Rights have long been secured...(Wouldn't mind checking Sanad on that!)

See that Gromz...that's how ya Snake & Drop in...always have yer Gold Spades ready to dig in!
How many drop ins do you do!

Goldie Westerly Windina says once her pet Goat stops chewing on her licence yer welcome to it!
Might neighbourly gift from Goldie to Sunnyboys...don't be knocking back a stiff Westerly Windina.

Thanks for the Updates crew...( Sanad opening date fast tracked timeline from above )
12th Nov 2020 Wave Pool was relegated to a delayed Stage 2
5th June 2021 "Delayed" Offset Stage 2 was set to open in 2024 ( Fast track was possible! )
30th June 2022 Endless Surf is swapped for the Perfect Swell wave model.
8th Aug 2022 Now All stages will open by end of 2023

So obviously something has happened with Courts / Govt / Pool Boys....(Unbeknown to us!)

* We're led to believe Sanad secured the end of 2021 State Govt Covid Cocoon Tourism Funding.
Likely around $2m-$2.5m to cover the Stormwater infrastructure & associated Court Fees.
So we can mostly cover that or rule it out of recent fast tracking...

* Wave Pool construction time is now faster...
Perfect Swell can Guarantee 1 year build (vs) Endless Surf promote even faster but can't promise.
But it's more about Perfect Timing of the swap...(Kinda like a preemptive strike!)

Govt's annual Mid Year Tourist Cash Splash may have a major influence of timing & need to swap!

June 2022 Qld Govt Tourism Development bonus $200k is also conditional for fast tracked opening?
The small print on this bonus shows Qld Govt investing & fast tracking 'Unique' Tourism Ventures!
Example : New Tourism Experience Development Fund will cover 25% of 'eligible' Project's total cost?
Crew can envisage that Govt deem a goofy Wave Pool as Gold Level "Unique Tourist Development"
Crew also know Sanad Comp Layout / Pool Venue is an International "Olympic class Tourist attraction"

So handout doesn't apply to whole project but backs 25% of any "Unique" Components.
Crew can see that Sanad has quite a few Unique Tourist Components...(Who leads who here?)
Were these grants designed to dovetail & bankroll this Water Park? ( Kate loved Goats / Sanad)
Basically the Govt will back a Wave Pool to the tune of 25%...(tbb is unsure of any 'unique' site caps!)
Just saying that certain Tourism Projects could collect quite a bit of Govt funding...not saying it's evil?
https://statements.qld.gov.au/statements/95514

One must consider that at least one of the Wave Pool Builders sussed this out & backed the favourite.
How could tbb know this?
Well....Sanad boasted Exclusive Perfect Swell Qld rights.
(Translation) = "Qld Govt Unique Tourism Venture"
Now we see! Not just about the rival Pool Boys Brew Ha Ha but it's now a race for the 25% Prize Pool
Sanad Invited the Neighbour's Pool Boy with his cool Pool Toyz to their Unique Pool Party.
Govt / Sanad / Pool Boy sign the Birthday Card for the Exclusively Unique 25% Prize Pool.
Cry if you want to...game over! The Neighbour's Perfect Dream Wave Pool is just that....We shall see!

In closing...Govt 25% prize pool enables 'All Sanad stages' to be fast tracked -Xmas 2023 opening!
Just saying that tbb is loosely reading into these grants...there is no further detail! Mostly reviewed later!

Sunny (vs) Goldie are fightin' over that there Unique 25% Wave Pool Grant
Parkwood Wave Pool is now rushed thru Council...race is on...time is ticking for the Holy Grail.

Trade negotiations with neighbourly rivals Sunny ... here's Sanad's Hot Doc all were looking for.
Sanad's Notice of Appeal against Surf Parks Australia Glass House Mountains Wave Pool.
tbb never thought to check in the Glass House Doc drawer 'after' Council approval...(20 Dec last link!)
https://www.swellnet.com/comment/743500
Simply went back to sister Glass House site & there it is.
https://publicdocs.scc.qld.gov.au/HPECMWebDrawer/Record?q=ApplicationNum...
Click 10/12/2022 [Action] > Preview ... or Direct link to Sanad appeal (Whichever Works!)
https://publicdocs.scc.qld.gov.au/hpecmwebdrawer/RecordHtml/19704705

Sanad's Appeal
Approval should be Refused...mostly concerns to overstepping Rural Zone codes!
* Reduction of Rural Land!
* Does not Enhance Rural Character & fragments the Scenic amenity!
* Alienates current Agricultural Pursuits
* No community need for Development
tbb could go on but it seems Sanad are disputing the Rural >Tourism upgrade...
Well! They can't be rubbishing the Pool they just poached from their neighbours!

Orders for Judgment
1. Uphold Appeal
2. Application be Denied
3. Further Court Orders ( Crew know that Sanad are Pro Court Surfers!)
Surf Parks Australia had 10 days to reply...nowhere near enough for such wide ranging appeal.

No idea how Surf Parks Oz got outta this brutal stranglehold.
Just saying that tbb followed their progress & SPA seemed to follow & comply fairly with all stages
tbb's opinion is that the Govt / Council had laid out the cross Tourism guidelines & assisted them.
Meaning Sanad are really having a crack at initial draft rezoning to tourism.
tbb reported that SPA often delayed but never blatantly breached any process to win approval.
Sister site doco drawer shows no short cuts or dodging, rather a hard slog to bring it on home!

Sanad may have stalled project start in order to pressure Govt for 100% backing with no opposition.
This Unique Tourism Grant seems to marry in all too well...
As said Tourism Kate was happy to pose with Sanad when Sunny Papers branded them wannabes!

Sanad claim they can finish all stages within 16 months yet haven't moved a barrow load of soil?
tbb checked up on Sanad's backer! Like who is ...Talal Y. Najibi
This bloke runs Pakistan's Huffaz ( Seamless Pipes )
Supplies Arab / World with High Quality but broad range costed Pipelines.
Has some big known movers in his pocket > KPMG run his books & supplies BP / BHP / Colgate...
He is listed as a Top 10 Oz player in this field
Highly likely he may fit out or control progress of Qld Gas / Hydrogen Pipelines

Movers'n'Shakers generally win a Govt leg up or nudge gentle assist to flick off rivals.
Whether he intends to build a Wave Park this century or stop everyone else from such!
Whole world knows US bully Qld to funnel Arms to Saudis....it's on record...No Secret!
Past dealings show Qld Govt will nuzzle up to Sanad if need be.

Just how have Surf Parks Australia dealt with Sanad's Appeal?
No word from Surf Parks Australia since Dec 2021 approval & Sanad's Perfect Swell switcheroo!

Found it! Not sure how we missed this...worth backtracking to dig it out!
All here knew something went down that changed the the whole dynamic.
Reckon we found it...or Sanad read about it first, now some months later...we can share that info!

Also explains why Surf Parks Australia remain in Limbo with a closed shop!
Sunny Wave Pool War (Part 1)
24th Jan Sanad Filed Objection
18th Feb 2022 Real Commercial News
Mind you! This is a shit Hot Wave Pool Review in it's own right...
Real happy to share this report as crew will luv all the specs & detail / Links in a concise format..
tbb & crew salute Erin Delahunty for delivering the goods...need to write more Wave Pool articles!
https://www.realcommercial.com.au/news/wave-of-discontent-on-sunshine-co...

Sanad are not appealing Surf Parks Australia for any breach as such...
They're taking Sunshine Coast Council to Court for approving a 2nd nearby Wave Pool.

24th Jan 2022 : Sanad's Lawyers HWL Ebsworth lodged a claim in the Planning & Environment Court.
Claim : " New Surf Park is in wrong location with no economic, planning or Community need for it!"
" Unacceptable impacts on surrounding sensitive land uses! "

This in itself never changed the dynamic...it was when Surf Parks Australia were asked to comment...
Watch & Listen carefully to a slip of the tongue that gave the game away & gifted Sanad the Ace Card!

Response :
Surf Parks Aust' Craig Morrison : "His team had the Tech, funding & experience to deliver the Project!"
Stating at the time...Using AWM tech!
"So it's disappointing that the Appeal has been filed against the Council!"
"We are moving ahead with detailed design & ((finalising agreements)) with our development & operating partners. We hope this appeal will not slow our ability to get moving on the construction of the facility!"

Bingo!
Not only was Surf Parks on the back foot in defence...they left the bloody front door wide open...OMG!
Crew can read that Surf Parks Australia waved a Red Flag to a Bull...while...[ Finalising Agreements! ]
Reckon as soon as Sanad read this report they hot lined AWM to ((Finalize an Exclusive Qld Licence))
Well with yer opponent showing his hand...what else were Sanad do, but to take the bloody Prize Pool.

Not sure how Surf Parks Australia come back from this or even if Sanad need bother with the Courts.

Cannot imagine why the Locals shared such a vital make or break deal so openly with the World!
None here nor anywhere needed to know a day before the deal was done...shot themselves in the foot!

All know that Sanad walked straight in & took their prized pool from underneath them...too easy!

Sunny Wave Pool War (Part 2)
3rd March Sanad / SCC Infrastructure Fee dispute is settled.(Re: RACQ Chopper!)
14th March - The Urban Developer
At this point of time the report clearly states Sanad were still anchored by Endless Surf.
Sure! They could've been lazy or foxing to stall!
Meaning! Sanad's appeal had stalled or slowed Surf Parks Australia...who had yet to finalize AWM.

30th March 2022 Court Hearing
https://www.sclqld.org.au/caselaw/QPEC/browse/2022/001
Court case is not listed...
(Q: Were Sanad courting AWM & signed MOU...not needing a Court Decision!)

Understand that Australian Surf Park Development was centred on AWM Design! (A Massive Risk!)
Whereas Sanad could slot any Wave Pool as side deal & have done several times over.
Sanad merely needed to sign the licence fee on AWM & it was game over for AWM centric rivals!
Surf Parks Australia need to reapply for new Wave Pool design & Sanad would appeal before permit!

30th June Sanad simply ditch non or part committed Endless Surf to scoop rival AWM
AWM list Sanad in news but not 'former' (Surf Parks Australia-Licence deposit must not be locked in!)
https://www.sanadcapital.com.au/post/first-look-at-the-epic-waves-that-w...

Notes : Sanad now reckon they're a responsible local corp > sponsoring RACQ "Care-Life Flight"
So we know they're saddling up with Govt & may have promised to stop suing the Local Council...Huh!

Sanad website nonchalantly waltzes both Endless Surf + AWM.
Apart from the one news article and a few photos there is no AWM intro or Promo.
Unusual as AWM are delivering their best Wave Pool.
There is very little push from AWM...happy for a Surf Sticker or Postcard...Whatever Dude!
Meaning Sanad approached AWM...who simply sold out for the licence bucks.
Sanad have to be dragged kickin'n'screamin' to dip a toe in a Wave Pool, just the exclusive licence thanx!

Gold Coast
Endless Surf now gloss all Parkwood Planning Docs Front 2 Back as #1 Showcase Surf Park.
Endless Surf site is pushing Goldie Hi Rise / Port Douglas Resort but not former Sunny Wave Pool.
Meaning once Sanad ditched Endless Surf they threw extra bucks at Parkwood Hi Rises. (No Secret!)

PS if any know of assumed 30 March 2022 Court Judgements...be cool to share.
(Think NEWS titles ran something?) Otherwise!
tbb feels Sanad never needed to proceed after their Exclusive ink was dry!
As said AWM don't recognize Surf Parks Australia...despite AWM being their meal ticket.
That would account for Surf Parks Australia's silence...time will tell!

PS: Surf Parks Australia could switch to similar Endless Surf > Sanad still likely has that licence also!
Sunny sure know how to do a Wave Pool War...plenty more have fallen in Sunny Surf'n'Turf Wars!

16th Oct 2022 - Perfect Swell "Wrecking Ball Pool Party"

25th Oct 2022 Qld Courier Mail

Sunny Coast Sanad have revealed minor changes to Surf Park"
https://www.couriermail.com.au/subscribe/news/1/?sourceCode=CMWEB_WRE170...

(Timing of response suggests that Sanad ordered the same Kmart Wave Pool cladding) Oops!

Sanad : "Require more Time before starting project"
(Maybe wondering why the hell they switched to the Deen Bros Wave Pool Demolitions).
https://www.couriermail.com.au/subscribe/news/1/?sourceCode=CMWEB_WRE170...

tbb is requesting if any fellow crew or Qldurrz can access recent NEWS story...

All tbb can find are these throw away news titles & this Colour Coded Plan of Pool changes.
Enough to suspect Sanad are up to old tricks of swapping pools & forever delaying project start.

These 3 Different Plans are all weirdly similar in scale so may help to show what changes...
It also indicates that the Wave Pool Design may be tweaked without a new approval.
(Several Designs) Recently approved Endless Surf > Then stole Perfect Swell (License) from rival Park.
https://content.api.news/v3/images/bin/0af04a1a15974ecbe3463effca63b48e
(Recent Plan looks similar to both) Is this yet a new Wave Pool Company's Design or tweaking?
https://content.api.news/v3/images/bin/af294a8be952cae78cc17974960aeb81

One must wonder if recent Perfect Swell Smash Up Derby Pool Party actually cost customers?

Start of 2022 Sunny had 1 Perfect Swell Pool + 1 Endless Surf Pool
Mid 2022 Sunny had 2 Perfect Swell Wave Pools
End of 2022 Sunny no longer has any pools? ( None even dare mention Perfect Swell )

Just checking in with fellow SEQ crew...wot the hell is goin' on here!
Has any got news on why both Wave Parks keep changing Plans & burying promoted Wave Pools?
Are both firms merely speculators that on sell resorts in flood plains.
Only to pull out on wave pool at last minute...so sorry...bummer! Enjoy yer gated swamp.

Plenty more hot air for the fly by night white shoe brigade dirigibles...Where else but Qld!

"Making Way for Two Parks" (Full Credit to Mitch Gaynor).
https://gcnews.com.au/making-wave-for-two-parks/

Dec 2021 Sanad appeals Surf Parks Australia (Approval!)

tbb forward : "Do yourself a favour & just read Mitch's full & just Article!"

( Following Case minutes are compiled in short form should the local Sunny News link crash! )
Sure! tbb will present minutes in just fashion so not to defile original Council Docs!

2022 Sunny Surf Park/s Court Docs

Sanad : (Argument)
"Not proven Economic / Community / Planning need for 2nd Park."
"Unacceptable Economic & Adverse impacts on other existing "Approved" Tourism Developments."

SC Council : (Counter!)
"Over 200,000 would use both Parks + Relative profits should not be a determining factor!"
"Even with less visits both would be viable & would not lead to one becoming unviable!"
"A reduction in Profits is a matter of Private Economics!"

Sanad : (Argument!)
"Economic benefits of 2nd Park to region are overstated as Sanad already have a World Class Facility!"

Council Town Planner : (Submission!)
"2nd Park would enhance year round Surf Cred of pioneering & innovating a new wave Surfing boom!"

Sanad : (Argument!)
"Sunny Coast was already a Surfing Hub regardless of approving a 2nd Surf Park!"
"2nd Park was to be built on Agricultural Land & does not comply with Town Scheme!"

Council : ( Counter!)
"2nd Park approval was encouraged so long as it never compromised rural activities!"
"Proposal is compatible with rural zone & does not compromise rural activities!"
"Matters of need & interest of Community, offset loss from rural production loss of non compliance!"
"The Land's location outside of Zone is not a reason for refusal!"
"Development is entirely in accord with Planning Scheme contemplating supportive Tourism!"
"The loss of Rural Land was Relatively Minor!"

*The Appeal is Continuing...

Explains the Gap year from Surf Parks Australia!

Sanad are not lettin' out much intel on the Wave Pool War...Might be a hint of arrogance!

Mostly as Sanad are working daily > embedded with State Govt Roads / Water.
Govt & Sanad & maybe flows over to the Council...all are now buddies...
Sanad : "Council has assisted with early works! Everyone is playing ball, we're progressing daily!"

Ordinarily nothing wrong with developer speak, but Civil Harmony with Sanad...like wotz with that?
Gotta suspect someone is trying to curry favour! Sanad don't do festive! Ever!
https://www.sunshinecoastnews.com.au/2022/12/16/complete-destination-hea...

Still no news on Glasshouse Mountains Pool on Perfect Swell Site.
https://perfectswellsurf.com/about

Ordinarily that's not too bad either but...
Oz AWM have lost 1. Aloha Wave House > 2. Wisemans Ferry > 3. Glasshouse Mountains (Where?)
Sanad is saddled with building an AWM thingy...'Like wotz that shit...why do we gotta do that!" Yeah!

Nothing wrong with AWM designs...
Oz Wave Garden & Oz Endless Surf have locked in 2 & very soon 3 pools each...

Anyhow...no further along than the end of 2020 / 2021 / 2022 / 2023...(Save on next year's wrap!)
Cross yer fingers The Great Sunny Wave Pool War ends this decade...or the decade after! Dream on!

PS: Mosey on over to the Sunny Surf Ranch...contact WSL Consolidated Properties (Say wot? No idea!)
Be easier to just phone the Qld Premier for Don's number to get an update or a Blue Heart Bypass!

Well - maybe, maybe not but given the highway upgrade to the start of Steve Irwin way and the thousands of homes going in across the way which will have a road almost directly to this park...that definitely is lifestyle changing if you live within the current beauty of the glass house mountains.

Salute the honesty of Sanad Director.
Correct! Surfing is not in Qld 2032 Olympics! Almost all World Surfing Execs are selling this lie!
Great to see Qldurr White Shoe Developer calling out corrupted Surf Brand CEOs...luv that shit!

Crew thanx Sprout for sharing the long awaited new Plans > reveals a lot about the Wave Pool...

Ocean east side has decidedly Smaller but Longer [L] Waves for "Massive" Family seating Area? Huh!
Hire / Cabanas / Food Courts / Change Rooms / First Aid...This be the Choked Up end of the Pool.

Glass House Mountains west side has the XXXX Slabs.
Both P1 Surf Pool + B3 Judges Stand is off centre towards west Site Entry / Slabs / Surf Brands / Bars

Noting this lay out may dedicate 3 zones
East [L] < Intermediate > (Gutter) < Pro Waves > Ramped by that Deep Set Leisure Pool
Noting Surf Lakes also play around with overflow Lagoons refuelling the Slabs.

Note just how particular the weir like effect of the Bar / Leisure Pool.
Looks like it plays a similar delayed chamber role as their former Endless Surf Bar Pool.
tbb thinks there is a reason why that there "Island Bar" engages 100% with the Wave pool.

(Apart from the obvious & essential far sided...almost irrelevant > minor Entry / Exit path.)
That don't look like an inviting Family Back Door into a Water Palace...more like a sleazy nite club entry!

Most operators would ensure the Bar had 100% access from all points! (Think about it!)
Not many dudes or Chicks got Money in there Togs?
This Wave Pool / Bar is only accessed by Water Park Wristbands!
Almost as if it's a Juice Bar by Day & Cocktails by Night.

Sanad Directors White Water Crew are bread'n'butter Family Wave Pools with a/h Surf Sessions
We could be sniffing out some Hybrid AWM Water Park > Family / Soft Waves thru the day...
With a/h Heavy Slab Sessions at the Jock's Public Bar.
tbb is just saying to keep an eye out on a Bipolar soft/heavy Hybrid by design & hours!
Can almost draw a line ... Good by Day (vs) Evil by Night...(Crew want Evil Slabs...Right!)

Still think tbb is having a lend...
Ask yourself this one Question?
With very little shade in Qld > Where do 300+ Loungers + Family members go to cool off...
Where else but that there Wave Pool.
Next ask which Wave Pool caters for 300 swimmers all day long on a Hot Day?
Then tbb will show you a Wave Pool that only allows surfboards during after hours! (All say Aye!)
Careful what you wish for Sunny...Happy to share Old School Goldie Wave pool know how on this one!

Another Old school Goldie Wave Pool / Water Park Tip...
No way in the world would a Water Park allow Sharp Edged boards 'with' large numbers of families!
All recall Water Parks removed Aqua Toboggans for similar injury risk.
Would only take one cut to the head of an innocent swimming Grom...be all over!

tbb can recall 2 Old School Wave Pools 'briefly' sharing Hard Boards in Swim Zones...(Not Now!)
Big Surf US / West Edmonton Mall Canada.

That there Wave Pool Party is overcooked & Sold Out before you can wax up! Sorry Crew!
Can't see Qld Govt allowing Sunny Boardriders to mow down Anna's precious Touros!
Better get onto this before Sanad bribe Sunny Council to knock out yer All Hours Grown Up Surf Park!

[ FactCheck ]
* Olympic Wave Pool sports a running Track ...So how come that Wave Pool looks like Club Med!
* Why relocate the Judge's Stand behind a stand of Trees unless it's some other shitty thing altogether!
* Pretty sure the World's most crowded Wave Pool could use a Life Guard Tower...just sayin'!
* Also ask why there are no sea of lounges in the Neighbouring Kids Water Park?

Reckon Sunny are the proud new owners of a real fancy Wave Resort Spa...Wow! That sounds so Noosa!
Goldie to Sunny ... "Happy Wave Pool Wars for 2023!"

Cross checking Wave Pool shoreline (Approx seating numbers).
This should answer if Sunny boardriderz are being restricted to a/h Wave Pool Sessions

The Wave UK : No seats + No Shades (Sounds odd but this Pool prides disabled access)
Urbnsurf : 20 R seats + 4 tables / 4 Umbrellas + 0 L seats + 4 shades (Again it sounds odd!)
Waco : 60 R seats + 50 L seats +( 5 shacks + 5 Shades) Mostly to cater for Spring Break spillover crew!
South Korea : 100 L seats + 20 cabanas / No R seats or Shades (Again : Odd because it's a Comp Pool)

Sunny Glass House : 15 L > 15 Centre > 15 R + 10 Umbrellas (These Guys are Banking on Bank!)

Actventure ( 4 Plans )
Original W'n'W : One large Sail covered Shorebreak Entry > Food Court (No Boards)
Endless Surf (Pro Jock version) : 20 Cabanas + No Lounges
Endless Surf (Family Promo Version) : 120 Lounges + 15 Cabanas (Core Base Level)

Note recent Urbnsurf Comp pulled around 100-200 at a time.

2023 Sanad new Plan
East [L] : Seats 310 L / Cabanas 10 / Umbrellas 38 / Tables 15
Wild West : Seats 120 / Cabanas 7 / Umbrellas 22 / Tables 0

Wow! That's a lot of Surfers for a dedicated Wave Pool?
Tip! Only Family Water Park Wave Pools hose off this many Pool Beds!

Ok! Well worth doing! Sunny West Side = 100 seat Surf Hangs of Waco / South Korea
Sanad Day hours : East side is Families + West [L] Foamies is no worries with Day Crowds

Night Time Wild West back door opens to Board Riders who can claim East pool if bookings require!

Basically a Family Wave Pool that unleashes the beasts to howl on Full Moon
Boardriderz (Approx) book Daily 5:am > 9:am (Families) Boardriders 6:pm >10:pm + Sat Morn sessions

Current example of similar restricted Extreme Oz Hard Core a/h Sessions:
Jan 2023 Urbnsurf Expert Sessions (Strictly) Sat/Sun/Hols 7-8:00 am + Fri/Sat/Sun/Hols 9-10:pm
Pleases the Dawn Patrol Lunatics!

The Sunshine Coast Ranch waves a White Flag in Sunny Wave Pool War.

*Sanad only now wanna finally sell their Surf Park to Surf Industry.
*Sucking up to Wave Pool Industry movers & shakers....
*Sanad Gallery features Stab Video of Perfect Swell Boa Resort Wave Pool
*Sanad have strengthened their AWM partnership or committed to Perfect Swell

It's unusual for Sanad to market themselves that well...so there must be a Surfie push behind this!
https://www.sanadcapital.com.au/

This can only mean Sanad begrudgingly relented to having Surfies foul their Water Park. (Tuff Gig!)
Forced grin with a furrowed brow...if we must...Puffs Cigar...Ok! Let's do this shit! (Good as Gold!)

Ok! But the Sunny Wave Pool War still rages on...
Which side of the barbed wire fence does Perfect Swell cling to?
Having equally supplied {Exclusive} Qld ammo to SPA + Sanad

AWM site gets a redo more than most Wave Pool sites.
Also think these words are carefully reworked!
tbb ain't read this much AWM site content or detail about any local pool let alone Sunny!

Kinda confirms both parties met & confirmed commitment enough to share media upgrades! (Rare!)

AWM briefly ran Surf Parks Australia Glass House Mountain Wave Pool in a short lived to do pile!
That was until the 11th hour Sanad double cross under enemy lines.
Sanad ditched Endless Surf & now claim Exclusive Qld rights to AWM Wave Pool.

Up until now Perfect Swell hasn't really warmed to Sunny Hospitality...reluctant to shine!

Recent Site Upgrade has a more Sunny feel about it!
Firstly...there is no longer mention of AWM Glass House Mountain Pool despite Full Council Approval!

Also...Exclusive may not mean Exclusive..
Recall ASP letting slip they hadn't signed off on AWM > Sanad moved in for the kill!
tbb thinks Sanad called their bluff on Exclusive Qld Rights!
Exclusive may not mean Exclusive Rights to Qld's only AWM.

AWM have danced around this themselves without ever once being serious! (Examples!)
But they do carefully say a lot about nothing that would hem them in!

"AWM have signed an Exclusive Agreement with Sanad for it's patented tech to be used in Qld Project!"
"Each spec from AWM is Unique to each location + Oz Venue will have Plenty Distinguishing Factors!"
"The Wave Pool will be one of the first of it's kind in Qld!"

Oz Venue meaning only one in Oz + First of it's kind in Qld meaning more than one in Qld?
Ya see! Double cross spy feeding Sunny Wave Pool War propaganda to ramp up the warring factions!
Plenty more Exclusives where that came from...Can just imagine!

Ok it is a Sunny Wave Pool War so we can forge a temporary Peace Treaty.

Nothing much to report apart from both parties dancing on The Sunny Ranch Graveyard.
But yes! As at this point of time they look like a Tight Unit on a mission...or maybe it's a Decoy!

Qldurrz salute udo's Black Ops reconnaissance mission.
More Sunny Wave Pool War Propaganda

Recap...
Sunny Wave Pool War kicked off with the Horse Head in JW's shed.
Basically the Wave Pool has a Horse Servo where the Crab Pots should be!
Yeah! Bit like Kelly has a Ocean drowning out his Sunny Wave Basin.
First World White Shoe Hodad Hassles are a bitch.

So naturally because of all that...& Qld being the Hell Hole of the Pacific.
Sanad are currently fighting Sunny Council over rubber stamping cross town 'Locals Only' Pool Party
Sanad spend more time on / off Court than in the wave pool...Wotz a Wave Pool...Where!

Exactly! That's the fuckin' Point.
Sunny locals see White Shoes stoking up Wave Pool Land Banks...fuck the surfie hangs!

Sunny / Goldie Wave Pool Proposals have sucked millions of hours of Council / Govt Staff.
Now millions of hours in the Courts...
Qldurrz apologize to Oz for blowing all yer taxes on our Wave Pool Wars.

26 April 2023 ( See udo's link above )
Sanad Sun Sponges (vs) Sunny Coast Council / Surf Parks Australia
Intro : [53] Pages [157] Clauses containing [278] Exhibits (Being set precedents)
Appeal : Not Supplied

Hot Tip : Don't get caught up in Sanad's legalities...

Instead...bookmark udo's link!

Why tbb! Coz it is #1 Data Base of Oz / Qld Surf / Wave Pool Stats...
Coz the argument is over Surf / Wave Pool Tourism + transit...(Crew can tap into this!)
Crew will be blown away by level of Surf Data, as incredible as it needs to be to win the case!
If crew are into Oz/Qld Surf Tourism Stats then bookmark udo's link! (Here)
tbb will run a menu...Surf Stats feature in > clauses [33-59] See...Quite a lot there to digest!
https://www.queenslandjudgments.com.au/caselaw/qpec/2023/8

Of recent Sunny Surfing history interest being...
2020 : Sandstrom / Ors (vs) Sunny Council / Windansea Boardriders Club
Yep! Good guess...A Seahorse Head in the Hodad's Beach Shack seabed.
https://www.queenslandjudgments.com.au/caselaw/qpec/2020/62

Ok! So Qldurrz need some sorta reprieve from the Sunny Wave Pool War...
Please can the crew provide a glimmer of hope...tbb followed udo into the trenches...
Sending back a message of Hope from the Frontline.
Jan 2022 Sanad Launches Appeal

Glass House News ( Locals can be mistaken that this is old news > re: Same Beth Photo.)
29th April 2023 "Court approves 2nd Hinterland Wave Park!"
https://gcnews.com.au/court-approves-second-hinterland-wave-park/
Recall the Court Docs stating Appeal was unavailable...
Well! That's because it was dismissed...
Judge Cash approved 2nd Wave Pool as there was a need & no other suitable sites.
Fuck the Pineapples > No one else is bitchin' about the Yuppie Surf Hang...only Sanad.

(Note) Sunny has stalled or rejected Wave Pool Proposals in 2002/2004/2019/2020/2023 (Above)

"So is that the end of the Sunny Wave Pool Wars"...err...Sanad never stepped outside of a court!
Final orders by Court :
Will be made in the coming weeks with the warring factions able to make further representations.
Sanad are licking their wounds and are not commenting ahead of these orders!
Noting they still have other standard means...blocking State infrastructure supply...Wot! (Cough!)

tbb : Media are promoting 2 Wave Pools but Sanad are no big Fans of a "Surfie Hang!"
After this Judgement...
Don't be surprised if Sanad pull outta Surf design & reintroduce their Wet'n'wild Deck Chair Wave Pool.
They've done it before & current Endless Surf Design has way too many lounges encroaching the Pool.

UN Peace Keepers are waxing up for The Sunny Wave Pool War peace keeping mission!

Thanks Sprout for the economy of scale + 'Final Court Date'.
9 June 2023 "Final Court Order"...Friday came & went with no Sunny News?
Strange as Sunny did run other Appeals in their News...just not Sanad...makes no sense?

Pause...expert researchers udo / Sprout be well onto this, only tbb thinks it never happened..Huh!
Crew can knock themselves out...but tbb advises not to waste time before thinking it thru...
Here's wot the Court's reckon...

9 June Court Dismissed Whiteshoe Sekisui's Resort Appeal (vs) Sunny Council

23 June 2023 : Qld Court Calendar : "Final Review Date" One per month!
https://www.courts.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0012/745968/plannin...
tbb is thinking Sunny Coast News confused the 'Whiteshoe Sunny Appeals' & ran Sanad on 9 June Date.
However! Sekisui was a standard Appeal...where as Sanad already appealed & lost > (Final Review!)

Don't be fooled into thinking the cease fire is still holding > Wave Pool War is not over...

Huey warns of warlike wavering on yer Sunny Horizon.
"Be very Alarmed & Alert > Point yer noses down & get ready to Turtle Roll on D Day 23rd June 2023!"
"Wave Pool War Wipeout Whitewater Wall is arising...yer Mandated Leggies won't save you!"
"Paddle above Wave Pool hills with Wild Horse & pray the Readymix Revenge runs outta concrete!"

BOM : "Hazardous Wave Pool Chemical Reaction...All Wave Pools Closed!"

Sprout's picturesque { SURF POOL } Perfect Swell Branding
Still no Sunny Green Glasshouses on the Perfect Swell Site...(Sanad must still hold Wildcard Licence)
https://www.perfectswellsc.com.au/

Taking a closer look...
150 Sun Lounges
100 Waders > avoiding the Surf Pool?
20 Float Rings
2 surfers per wave
No Beach Flags to divide Waders / Surfers?

Pause...to think!
Can't see 100 Sunny Water Park waders locked out of a Wave Lagoon mid summer?
tbb still thinks this is a Family Wave Pool by Day...but with Softies [L] + Gromz ( 2+ / wave )
Above rendering screams split day sessions (30 min Softies / 30 min Wade) All in same soft waves.

Yes! Soft Waves...

Notice there is more Beach than Water & even at lowest tide the waves still die out half way to shore!
This image represents smallest & shortest waves for [L] Session (hooter) Waders.
All plans / sketches / renderings point to this being a soft share pool by day...
Quality Surf sessions...kick in a/h or Sat / Sun morning Hodad/Grom/Chix Clubs

Meaning...Sanad will need to go hard'n'fast to lock in Brizzo Head Dippers / Schools / Clubs...
Glass House Yuppie Flight Academy will likely fly higher at their Local Disco.

Quiet word is Sanad are backing it...Surf Cabins...
Might recall Sanad tried to switch to Glamp Style to grab the Govt Cocoon handouts but switched back.
https://www.sanadcapital.com.au/post/sanad-announces-leisure-park-plans-...
Reckon they simply invested in this neighbouring Surf Hang...(Project has local operators stoked!)
Pay to recognize there is a close bond amongst tourism operators to upvalue the Neighbourhood!

These recent plans show a long road that could extend around perimeter of Both Developments.
Then back out each others Exit / Entry...looks like the end game!
Also note Powered Camp Sites Safari Tents are nearest the Wave Pool...
tbb is not calling it yet...but it does look like a dual / eco economy project to service the Wave Pool.
The timing & laid back / East Coast camper market is a perfect fit for the Motorway Wave Pool
Reckon Sanad are staking a claim on Grey Nomads / Backpacker weekday Market
