Overview
- Surfers briefly propped up the stalled river wave at night with wooden boards, a move officials deem unauthorized, but the effect vanished by the weekend.
- Specialists from Helmut‑Schmidt University Hamburg measured flow and bed conditions on November 6, and the city says the data now require thorough evaluation.
- Earlier interventions to raise the water level, including a short‑term 'kickstart' with additional Isar water, failed to restore a surfable wave.
- The Isar inflow feeding the Eisbach remains below normal, and in coordination with the Wasserwirtschaftsamt no further measures are planned for the weekend.
- Munich officials describe the wave as a major attraction and note wider impacts on surfers, nearby businesses and tourism after a prior mid‑year closure following a fatal accident.
