    Beyond:
    Franchising wave pool, selling near indestructible boards to said franchises.....endless possibilities on tap

    Don't forget the Tiki bar at the pool. I could see huge potential with the reserve for long weekend party (bachelor parties, SI get togethers etc.). It would be pretty sick to own/operate but just to experience that wave pool for a weekend would be killer. Jury is out on his business model and the success of clothing and FW deal but....gotta give him credit for going for it.
