general information
A great waves that can hold a good size of up to 15ft+. It's a long and heavy right hander breaking in three separate sections, which can all join up to one loooong continuous wave when the wave has a good size in just the right conditions. It doesn't really tube all that much but has a steep and powerful wall with fast sections. Entry and exit from the water can be a test, either jump off the very end of the point and round the back into the linep or alternatively jump in on the inside section and make the paddle up to the lineup.
