forgot to say - wanted to say 1 more thing...u say the spot starts happening at 3ft and holds up to 8ft+...if u talkin hawaiian its more or less ok...if u talkin about faces u should double that numbers...Push 5ft is crap, like Pipe.Push starts being Push at 8ft and holds up to 15+...and FAT

heres the deal - Im local bodyboarder, close to 20yrs experience, so i know wot im sayin. Been to G-land, Pipe, Pto. Esc, Indo, Canarias..etc I know about heavy waves and u cant compare...heavy = heavy...but each got their own thing that makes them different.El Push is definetly in top 10 waves in the world when u talk about quality, size, power and consequense of a mistake. If u wanna talk consistency of the spot, Push is crap...but when its happening u wont forget the session.I think Push deserves the 5 stars, so does Pipe, GLand, Pto, and Teahupoo....but trying to choose wich 1 is better is impossible. Depends on what you are looking for.But definetly Push is the best spot in PR, better than chatarra, pussy point, margara or gas chambers.
