Tumultuous Waves Water Feature

Where you'd put a decorative fountain, this feature would be more like a ballet of various waves crashing into each other. Picture watching ocean waves concentrate in a rocky cove blasting against each other from various angles causing the water to dance and bounce about in never ending patterns.

This would be achieved by filling various tanks with water positioned above the pond, behind a wall for instance, that are opened to let the water into the pond in various sequences.

So say you have 6 tanks. Each tank has various outlets into the tank from various angles. We'll do one simple feature, the opposing wave.

Tank 1 on the far left, and tank 3 on the far right have valves that face each other. These would be more sluice gates than valves because opening them would release all the water at once creating a big wave.

When the waves meet in the middle of the pond, they combine their momentum and create a massive water tower that rises up 20 feet before splashing back down.

That would be a simple combination but with enough water inlets arranged around the perimeter endless "water dances" could be created.
