Ever wonder how they got the name 4 this spot?
It's not been called 'tombstones' from the hot chix on the beach that resemble Angelina Jolie in "the Tomb raider." This spot's name was coined due to the extremely long waiting periods between bigger days; they may actually bury you here from having died waiting 4 it 2 go off!

Don't hedge your bets
Went past there on a charter in Sept 05, swell was double overhead elsewhere and just about shoulder high here. Still fun tho.
