weak
go find it yourselves. Why do you all have to post the secrets that other people have worked years to figure out. GIving away spot locations and tips is lame. Get out there and do your own discovering.
Just cause you can surf the web, doesnt mean you can actually surf.

WARNING!
To all you Elwa and Stump surfers who surf The Point, be very carful if you use the trail leading out to The Point. Someone thought it would be a good idea to put down a spike boobytrap to regulate those surfing The Point. A friend of mine stepped on it, destroyed his bootie, but worst yet hurt his foot. Slashing tires, smashing out windows, tagging, beating people up and now putting down boobytraps at one of our favorite breaks. Haven't we had enough? STOP WITH THE REGULATING! You are going to far and are putting us all in jeopardy of loosing another great surf spot.

tips for elwha wisher
1) dont park on the res. go around and park in the parking lot on the other side of the river.
2) get it on an incoming tide. it makes a huge difference.
3) this wave breaks hard; right onto the rocky riverbar. dont get slammed.
4) the river pushes you into the impact zone. paddling around to the cove seems like a good way to get back in.
