Video: Wave pool breaks the ice after lake freezes overnight

The Wave surfing lake in Bristol froze amid the extreme temperatures being felt around the UK.

An inland surfing venue in Bristol has released mesmerising footage showing waves breaking up the ice which formed in extreme conditions at their facility.

Snow and ice have featured prominently over the past week as sub zero temperatures saw schools close and weather warnings issued across the UK.

The Wave surfing lake in Bristol was one of those affected, seeing its water freeze overnight – low temperatures had already seen the weekend’s sessions cancelled.

The result was not only an effective ice destruction method, but also a mesmerising video as the waves steadily broke through the frozen water.
