"anonymous" and "look u idiot" - Whatever, ive surfed this spot by myself and the locals were cool as hell. You are making your natives look bad. A wave is always a pleasure, its the people out of position that get worked on, anywhere period. I doubt rookies are on here looking for spots they can't surf. Chill out. BTW - does anyone know where i can rent a Toobs Bomber for a week in Kauai?

look you idiot - all the islands especially kauai have strong mana. tourist or people not fimiliar with our island arent welcome. the have no clue what this island means to the native people. kooks and non regulars get kicked out, thats just the way it is.
