Additional Information
needs a big NE swell to wrap in through the harbour entrance where the swells hit the inside of the eastern breakwall. the takeoff is really heavy below sea level wedge before the wave barrels into a heavy tube
Atmosphere
scary fricken scary
General
when it gets big you worry about hitting the bottom, made up of huge concrete lumps twisted metal old train tracks shopping trolleys with pieces of steel protruding through the concrete and old car bodies but the waters so brown and shitty youd never know
