Vertigo Sports is a leader in sports innovation in Russia! Our development has been recognized as the best innovative product of 2025.

Our ocean-type artificial wave generation technology won first place in the "Innovative Products" category at the III All-Russian Sports Prize "Golden Dialkon". This event marks the beginning of a new era for surfing in Russia, making this sport accessible regardless of geographical location.

The unique technology, protected by 3 patents, allows creating surfing waves that are indistinguishable from natural ones in their dynamics and power. This opens up new opportunities for athlete training and the development of surf culture in regions and countries without access to the sea.

Artificial wave is a pool 85-120 meters long, in which surf waves up to 1.8 m high are generated every 2 minutes.

The practical application of the development has already proven its effectiveness. The country's first artificial surf spot "Sea is Waving" based on an artificial wave has been operating in Rostov Oblast for two years. The second artificial wave is operating in St. Petersburg. And the next wave generator is already being prepared for shipment abroad.
The solemn ceremony held in Moscow became an official recognition of the technological leadership of Vertigo LLC. Our wave generator is not an imitation, but an exact recreation of the dynamics, power and shape of a real ocean wave.

"This victory is a recognition of the importance of our work for the entire sports community. We have created a tool that erases geographical limitations for surfing in Russia. Now you can train and conquer waves hundreds of kilometers from the coast", — commented Vertigo company founder Alexander Ishchenko on the victory.
The victory in the prestigious prize and the success of the "Sea is Waving" project are clear evidence that Vertigo LLC is a pioneer and key developer of artificial wave technologies for surfing in Russia. We are proud of our contribution to the development of the sports industry and are opening new opportunities for athletes and enthusiasts throughout the country and beyond.
