Eastern Swell Dynamics will serve as the official licensed platform for PerfectSwell® projects in the region, combining AWM’s surf technology with CTG’s tourism infrastructure, development capabilities, market access and longstanding presence across Greater China.
The joint venture was formalized through a signing ceremony between American Wave Machines and CTG Commercial Management.
China Tourism Group is one of the most significant tourism enterprises in China, with a history dating back more than a century and a business network spanning mainland China and international markets. Its platform covers travel services, scenic destinations, hotels, duty-free retail, tourism transportation, real estate, cultural tourism and related destination businesses.
CTG’s development of Riyue Bay Surf Resort, anchored by PerfectSwell® surf technology, provides an early indication of the type of destination experiences the partnership is designed to expand, with surf positioned as a key component of destination development.
Riyue Bay Surf Resort is powered by PerfectSwell® surf technology.
“The formation of Eastern Swell Dynamics reflects the next phase of PerfectSwell® growth,” said AWM Founder Bruce McFarland. “AWM brings the surf technology, enthusiasm for the sport and surf park experience. CTG brings extraordinary regional capability, destination development experience and institutional reach. Together, we believe the joint venture is positioned to support a new generation of surf park projects.”
The launch comes as PerfectSwell® Surf Parks continue to emerge as destination anchors, hospitality drivers and next-generation recreational assets. Through Eastern Swell Dynamics, AWM and CTG intend to establish a focused regional platform for long-term market development, localized project support and premium surf experiences.
“Riyue Bay Surf Resort has already demonstrated the appeal of high-performance PerfectSwell® surf within a destination experience developed by CTG,” said Wei Li, CFO of CTG Investments. “Through Eastern Swell Dynamics, we look forward to building on that success and supporting the development of new PerfectSwell® surf destinations across China.”
