American Wave Machines, Inc. Announces Successful Review of Patents

SOLANA BEACH, CA, Nov 28, 2023 – (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – American Wave Machines, Inc. (AWM) announced that AWM patents challenged by WhiteWater West Industries, Ltd. (WW), a waterpark attraction supplier and promoter of Endless Surf, have been reviewed and validated by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). Prior to this ruling, in a victory for AWM, the USPTO had declined a request made by WW to challenge additional patents. In summary, to date, three of the four patents challenged by WW have been confirmed in their entirety, and one patent retains a majority of patentable claims. These latest decisions further strengthen AWM’s sole ownership in sequence-based pneumatic surf technology, trademarked as PerfectSwell®. The patents have related foreign counterparts in Canada, Germany, France, Spain, and the UK.

AWM owns an extensive and growing patent portfolio protecting PerfectSwell® Technology as seen here in Brazil where PerfectSwell® is the anchor in a multi-use real estate development partnering with JHSF. The Law Office of Manuel de la Cerra prosecuted AWM’s patents. Bryan Cave Leighton Paisner LLP, a global law firm, acted as AWM’s legal counsel in the IPR proceedings and its commercialization efforts as AWM continues its rapid expansion of the PerfectSwell® global network, most recently in the US, Brazil, Portugal, Australia, and Japan.

“The company’s continuing innovations and significant investment in acquiring and defending patents secures the value of PerfectSwell® destinations for AWM and our business partners, protecting all stakeholders from unfair competition,” said Bruce McFarland, Founder of AWM. “The PerfectSwell® brand is fueled by patented innovations covering all aspects of pneumatic surf generating, wave designing, damping, machinery and surf pool shapes.”

“Sequencing is the secret sauce, that’s why we patented it. The victory means the PerfectSwell® style of sequenced peeling waves, like the A-Frame™, Point Break™, Split Peak™ and others remain covered by AWM’s patents,” said William McFarland, Business Development Manager at AWM. “The company will continue to push forward new ideas and innovation as we launch PerfectSwell® surf destinations.”
