Additional Information

Trailer bay is a similar set up to Elands bay, without the crowds and walling up to give a freight train ride. Gets pretty scary because it walls up over a solid block of rock, then swings outward and into a small bay. Watch out for the rocks.

Atmosphere

Awsome wave.

General

Heavy and long.
