parsons 4-6 foot! - ok dudes listen up, here's a little known secret. most people think parsons is best in small swells. NOT TRUE!! the best days at parsons are on those rare 4-6 foot days when everything comes together... banks, tides, winds, swell direction... and you get killer, hollow lefts off the point that peel for a good 50-100m and are totally makeable! it is VERY rare for these conditions to happen, but when they do, this place actually does get really good!
