Overview
- Following a two-week Bachauskehr and a planned Friday restart with new lighting, the wave failed to build and the spot is currently unsurfable.
- The Munich surf association IGSM cautions that currents appear altered and potentially hazardous, urging people not to enter the water.
- Local measurements showed the water level dropping from about 140 cm to 121 cm over the weekend, well below the roughly 150 cm surfers call ideal.
- Surfers point to possible causes such as removed sediment during cleaning or disrupted inflow from the Isar at the Praterwehr, though nothing has been confirmed.
- The city’s building department says it is working on the issue, and CSU/FW city council leaders are demanding rapid clarification and remediation from the Baureferat and Stadtwerke.
