- Rips / undertow
- Pollution
You must always know your tides because the window is small for catching it good here, sit and watch it for a minute before you paddle out there is a spot where it lumps up that is your take-off zone after that set a rail and get a tube!!!
Atmosphere
This spot is usually only surfed by locals you wont be hassled unless your in the way, watch for rips that will pull you under the bridge or out into the boat channel get your paddle strength on cause you'll need it to stay in good position or just catch one, get out and walk back up the beach
General
I have seen this spot go off world class style if conditions are right, nice long left with a tube and workable shoulder, just don't paddle out there and be a kook

- Worry about yourself. What do u mean WHY???? I know it's obvious that 95% of people who post shit on this site are lousy surfers, but let's not be naive and think Jersey has tons of secrets left. When some kid gets sucked out it'll be his fault, not the person who posted the spot.

- never actually seen this spot get any bigger than waist high but i think it has some potential with a good hurricane ground swell. As for people crowding this spot forget about it, there is such a strong current here only those with local knowledge or ripped out of there minds would think of paddeling out here. all the kooks head to 30th anyway so why worry
