Alternative name Teaha-shoe and Horse-poo
There are really three moods to this break:
1) Horseshoe - This is Horseshoe proper. A hollow left with a steep drop offering up potential shallow reef barrels and sometimes open faces to do some turns on. A right happens sometimes too, which can be extremely fun with some hollow sections.
2) Teaha-shoe (combination of Teahapoo and Horseshoe...pronounced "cho-shoo")- On large winter swells this wave can get thick and scary and throw spitting tubes, much wider than they are tal over shallow reef. Gnarly drops and thick lips. Be careful...
3) Horse-poo (combination of Teahapoo and Horseshoe...pronunciation should be obvious) - Depending on swell size, tide, and swell direction, this wave may not break while neighboring San Diego breaks are providing some very fun waves. Also, the crowds can get really bad when it's in the "poo" to "fun" range. They tend to thin out when it gets more serious.

Gnarly wave - Very sponger dominated wave, the takeoff is often steep, hence the # of spongers out there since you really have to turn into the wave or get eaten alive by reef. Speaking of which, very surreal catching a monster and seeing the reef right under you, the landing if you eat it is very unforgiving (esp. on low tide), that's why I wouldn't take a new or expensive board there.
