like Kaisers - Breaks just like Kaisers on the right swell. The right will bowl at this absolute perfect angle that insures a beautiful little barrel. The left can wedge just as well but being a regular foot, I like to stall frontside into that picture perfect tube. On many days, it is a viable a-frame so be careful when doing the backdoor boogie as other waveriders may have the same idea going in the opposite direction. Leave the leash in the car and you will be embraced by the locals.

Nobs!!! - This wave shouldn't even be on here, its a grom wave that never gets very good, and if it is on the locals are gonna run the show like they always have. So basically there is no reason for you to surf here, but if for some reason you must don't were a cord, its a short swim to the beach and its a rule, respect it.

Ummm-yeah, OK - If you're older than 13, you'll look like a a guy playing in the ball bin at McDonalds playland. This is a grom wave - let them have it. Surf somewhere else.
