Abstract

An apparatus for generating waves has a pressure storage tank (2), a chamber (7) in fluid communication with the pressure storage tank and a valve (5) coupled to control air flow from the pressure storage tank to the chamber. A barrel (102) is configured such that it may be aimed so that the chamber (7) causes a wave to be generated in a desired direction.
