室内サーフィン/ Surfing in a room

最近オープンしたバンコク市内のショッピングモールで見つけた屋内サーフィン場。サーフィン好きにはたまらない施設なんだろうと思う。爽快さでは大自然の中よりは劣るだろうが、皆の前で自慢の腕前を見せられるのも気分がいいだろう。昔嗅いだようなバブルの香りが少しした。

Recently, I found a facility for surfing in a building of a shopping mall in Bangkok. It could be very attractive place for surfing freaks. It could be good place for show-off surfers who can enjoy playing in front of spectators, however refreshing felling might be inferior than in the nature. I can feel something like same feeling that I felt more than twenty years ago in Japan as before bubble had been broken.
