"Cheyne Magnusson is the kind of talent you build around."
The Maui surfer and former reality TV star Cheyne Magnusson has enjoyed only the briefest of periods of unemployment following his split from the Palm Springs Club with the announcement that he’s been picked up by Endless Surf as its new Surf Design and Operations Manager.
Magnusson, you know well.
The lightly corpulent red-head starred in the MTV reality show Maui Fever. It may be hard to believe, but, often, Cheyne had to contend with myriad women fighting to have their wombs scraped by his crooked sword. Cursed by god, but succeeding beyond all measure, how could anyone not admire Mr Magnusson. Plus, he ripped.
Many years ago now, back when I actually picked up a telephone, I asked him if being red been an impediment in your life and how can a red find love and sex.
Yes, it has impeded my ability to blend in anywhere in the world except for the country of Ireland. Also, since being red makes me a ginger, I have no soul, which means I shouldn’t be trusted so that sucks. That being said, I quote the great Eric Cartman who stated ‘better red than dead.'”
To the second he said,
“That’s easy, first, impress them with your shredding skills on the board. Next, dazzle them with some tequila shots and a freaky dance move like the worm. Third, bust out the burning bush, chicks dig red pubes. You heard it here first, and probably last. But remember, I shouldn’t be trusted so thats actually a load of crap and I just got extremely lucky and I think my chick has terrible eyesight! Good luck out there fellow rangas.”
Where were we?
“Imagine putting six years of passion into something you loved and pioneered just to be told you have no value to it,” he wrote in a stinging post.
Ominously he added, “One day, the real story of what went down here will be told, not today though.”
That short time kicking cans, sleeping real late, eating chocolate biscuits that’ve been hardened in the freezer every time you feel bored, has now ended with the notice he’ll be riding the Endless Surf tech.

This makes it three wavepool companies for Mr Magnusson, American Wave Machines, Lochtefeld, Endless Surf.
Endless Surf is very happy with their new signing, as they should be. He is the maestro of button fiddling at pools afterall.
From the presser,
Cheyne is the kind of talent you build around,” says Paul Chutter, President of Endless Surf. “His track record, feel for wave design, and ability to create next-level experiences make him a huge asset as we grow. With Cheyne onboard alongside our CTO Clement Ginestet and Product Lead, Axel Terradillos, we truly have a powerhouse team shaping the future of inland surf.”
Cheyne’s hire comes at a time of rapid growth for Endless Surf, with projects underway across five continents following the recent debut of its first installation at O₂ SURFTOWN MUC in Germany. His addition reinforces Endless Surf’s commitment to delivering world-class surf experiences for all with core credibility, operational precision, and unmatched wave variety.
Many positive comments below the line, including from JOB, CJ Hobgood, Bethany Hamilton, Matt Biolos and Albee Layer.
He’s all in on the future shock of pro surfing. Will take some bullets along the way. But like Jordy will come up with a Superman move when required.
parents gifted him with that moniker , guessing if he was named Joe smith he’d still be unemployed
A wave DJ, if you will.
I hope they build lots of these all over inland America so when the kids get out of there 16 hour shift at the Apple factory they can blow off some steam.
Dont forget who’s gonna build all these puppies. And smash those avocados on sourdough toast. And clean the toilets.
‘Endless Surf’, gosh, we think of endlessness, eternity – a never ending moment, wow!
So he is going from what is arguably the best pool tech in AWM, to Loch and his countless poor attempts at pool tech, to what appears to be another questionable tech with mediocre waves? That seems like reverse trajectory from a business and career perspective.
When you discussed this lemon last week I thought you were talking about the Flowrider bloke Tom Lockveldt, so I made a comment about the awesome Thomas Dolby hit ‘She Blinded Me With Science’ from the early 1980’s which featured English TV scientist Magnus Pike (that very few here had heard of, to understand the connection it seems).
Anyway, yeah by all accounts this guy is a dickhead trust fund kid, who lucked into the pool job in the first place, and is full of crap.
P.S.
Be sure to check out ‘She Blinded Me With Science’ by Thomas Dolby.
It’s cooool…
Cheers
He was flattered they asked him to do the video. I’m glad they did.
I don’t think he is a trust fund kid.
used to watch that show with Magnus!
QED?
Sounds like a toxic employee
