Definitions
- the fringe side of the middle section of the body is convex and designed in such a way that when the device moves with the wave, the rear side will not "form" a wave, that is, it will not transfer energy back to the water.
- the end areas of the body are flat, thus utilising the suction of the wave circulating the device. This enlarges the capture width.
