Additional Information

This is South Africa's Suck Rock. The wave looks almost exactly the same as the one in Oz at times but more rights. Heavy short ride, tuck in race it and bust an air. More for bodyboarders.

Atmosphere

Only handles up to around 7foot, although anything bigger is asking for a beating. The reef is shallow and often exposed. Come with experience.

General

Crazy awsome wave.
