Original – The Eisbach in München is a man-made river that features a standing wave, a popular spot since 1972 for river surfing and playboating.

Reason: We're fortunate to have some good quality videos on Wikipedia; they're more difficult to pull off well, the file size and type restrictions are limiting, and yet they are best at illustrating certain topics. Here's a chance to recognise a good video from the world of sport. Perhaps one you're not all that familiar with: river surfing on man-made standing waves. A bit of comedy wipe out towards the end makes this one even more of a keeper, I think!
