Surfing in Englisher Garten

One of the most bizzare things we saw in Munich was this surfer in the Englisher Garden. An artificially generated wave has been created which allows surfing on a small part of the river Isar in the Englisher Garden. I think this wave was created by an American soldier stationed in the city after WW2. No need for surfers to wait for the wave - it's always there. To see the surfers go to the southern end of the gardens, near Prinzregentstrasse. The best view is from the bridge on Prinzregentstrasse overlooking the wave. If you are interested in surfing here I think you will need to bring your own board as I didn't see any place hiring them out.
