This is a spot only for people who know what they're doing. So all you guys who got a promotion and started surfin with your buds don't even try it you'll get messed up. Besides you'll get the only gaijin look while you're out there so you'll need skill to back your intrusion.
Atmosphere
HOLLOW. I've never seen a wave form like this before. The swells just poor onto the reef causing massive tubes. Still it's got almost a point break type of wave going.
General
And some say there are no waves on Okinawa...

Aha-Yoko - I remember surfing this fickle left racer. We called it North Rock. Really quite an adventure finding and surfing it, mainly because it is hard to catch it doing it's thing. If you do score it you may just find yourself getting some really good ones, that is, if you have the balls and skill to ride them.

Memories - I had been surfing for almost 10 years the first time I paddled out on this break. I got swallowed by a barrel on my 2nd paddle out and stretched my back out real nice. Nice spot and a sweet ride. I miss that place.
