bullshizzle - its a bit of a hoax, firstly- it's defo not a tidal wave so it pretty much breaks only when it's windy so it's all choppy and stuff, no fun, no barrels nor nothing, it's totally powerless although when it breaks there are loads of rips and pretty heavy undertows so be careful. plus I wouldn't call it a beginners wave- it's not easy for a kook to ride it, it's pretty tricky to catch one and trust me- I've been there, it's a bit of a shizzle. this spot is suitable for windsurfers or kites ,for everyone else- just don't go for it, can't be arsed to try, you'll be pretty much disappointed. want some relatively decent surf in the baltic sea- go to hiuma island in estonia or sweden, i added some spots there but no one's been arsed to put them on so prolly try some other sources. plus yeah, the locals can be pretty agro, ouch. yeah that pretty much sums it up I guess. cheers
