Sand time
I agree the sand in there is putrid. The best part of the wave used to be in the inside wall up. But now it doesn't exist. Shame really.

My Update
Hello Bloggers,

Wow what a funny experience that was reading all your comments.

Leggy is not even localised. From my experience down there I get the 'vibe' that everyone there are just keen surfers. Lets face it, you would have to be a keen surfer to walk up and down the track everytime you go for a surf. If you have a smile on your face and are friendly and say hello to people, there are usually no hassles. I think its about being curtious to others that are in the water. If you aren't I think you deserve to be burnt anywhere you surf.

A point that must be made regarding the quality of the wave at this present time is the sand build up. Waves do not break past abortion rock these days. Anything over 3 foot does this.

Anyway, that is my rant.

Take care bloggers.

in the way
All of these criket dads who blow in and get in the way on the take off bowl are kidding themselves.They should get out of the zone and back to bar beach on there 7"2 glossy PD's Squareback.
