Additional Information
Piermont is a crumbling wave that becomes hollower the bigger it gets. its quite a thick, heavy wave. very enjoyable nearly always empty.
Atmosphere
lovely spot near an old style resort. can get a bit of an eerie shark feeling when you are surfing it with two or less people. dont get the tide too low cause you can get fucked over the rocks ther bad when its big
General
wicked spot to check out if Swansea point is too crowded. can get real heavy. but 5ft and under is a slow crumbling and clean wave. very long.

Piermont - Surfed it since I was 15 that makes 20 years, lacks power/shape/anything/ it just a dag when theres not much on. It's surfable maybe 5-6 days a year
