Backdoor Access |
| |
Backdoor is real easy to find: On Kam Highway, near Sunset Beach. It is right opposite Sunset Elementary School, in front of Ehukai Beach Park. If its working, just look for the perfect peak, the surfers crowding the shoulder and the photographers and wannabies lined up on the beach. |

Additional Surfing Infos |
| | This is one of the best right wave in the world. Is the right of pipeline, but is a little bit slower, less powerful and a little bit less dangerous(cause there is more water from the wave to the coral reef).
It works from three reef: from the first reef, it's not so dangerous, and is possible to be surfed by surfers with some experienced, from the second reef, you need lot of experience to surf it, and from the third reef it's so big and powerful that is only for pros or kamikaze!

| |
Overview |
| |
Atmosphere |
The atmosphere is the same of pipeline, there can be some locals, but if you respect them, usually you'll don't have problems. |
| |
General |
I think that this is the second best right wave in the world(the first is Jeffrey's Bay, cause it's a longer wave).
Is absolutly my favourite spot. I hope one day I'll surf it! |
