Additional Surfing Infos
 Ugly righthander that needs a 5-6+ swell to start working properly. Anything smaller and it becomes impossible and anything bigger is asking for injuries. Shallow. The wave breaks into a rocky bay. race it, tuck into the barrel, come out and pullout before the closeout section. On smaller days the reef infront of it works OK. Heavy fat bastard of a wave. We bodyboard here, dont think it can be standup surfed. Can be pretty difficult getting out. Make sure you time the sets well when paddling out or you're fucked.
  Overview
  Atmosphere Crazy. Only surfed it twice, dont think many others have surfed it or know of it besides us but ofcourse all welcome. Theres another wave closish by we cal 'Mossel Bay', this is a simular wave and works with simular swell though abit better sheltered from wind.
  General Come try it if these kinds of waves are your thing and if you like eating reef.
