Additional Surfing Infos |
| | the best wave in this area , ultra long on a decent swell, great take off section runs into a soft but very, very long wall. mal riders out of control here on any swell theres heaps out. it's mal city which is such a shame because a shortboarder can go mad on a decent wave.

Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
its crowed all the time and the mal riders go mental at everyone! its really sad to see three or more mals drop in on each other and chuck mentals, all are like 200 years old but they carry on like there better then kelly slater and gonna turn pro next week. most locals are cool but everyone needs to kick back and take your turn. so you get one good one a hour, isn't that better then acting like a greedy, ancient, mal riding fuckwit and spoiling the country laidback vibe for everyone? think about it |
| |
General |
its one of the best hotdogging waves around. when was the last time you got a clean tube on take off and then had a fun wall to do ten off the tops on or twenty round house cutbacks? half way down the line your legs will be screaming for mercy!! |
