wicked reef - theres w wicked reef in the bay at sugarloaf rock that on smalled swells like 1 to 1.5 meters is forms a sick left hand barrel that raps around into a air section. on bigger days the swell seems to miss the reef, maybe because of a sand bar or snother reef further out but ive only ever seen it break 2 times. check it next small swell with alot of W in it.

FIRST - Comming from a yank means the wave's probably just average.
