We introduce the concept of a metasurface system able to route space waves via surface waves. This concept may be used to laterally shift or modulate the beam width of scattered waves. The system is synthesized based on a momentum transfer approach using phase-gradient metasurfaces. The concept is experimentally verified in an "electromagnetic periscope". Additionally, we propose two other potential applications namely a beam expander and a multi-wave refractor.
