josefino - olá! ainda n percebi o que queres dizer com respect the locals? isso e teu???consideras isso o teu secret spot?lol entao mete o no cu. Ondas em Alpertuche?lol desde quando???Bem, e verdade que ja ouvi dizer isso, aqui a malta de setubal fala de alpertuche mas tipo nc vi ondas ai...mas ok e capaz d dar..podias era ter referido k e um spot apenas para bodyboarders..pk tem 5 cm d profundidade e esses calhaus devem aleijar e partir pranchas de surf. Este Inverno passei em alpertuche mais de 10 vezes para ver s dava umas ondinhas...ate mesmo kd em sesimbra deu metro e meio, em alpertuche tava um flat flat...passei tbm plo teu spot coco loco(bah) num dia em k estava uma tempestade do caralho, e ondas nem ve las...fodasse...olha o spot e teu e o teu secret spot, mas alem de surfares ai com os teus dois ou tres amigos, o que e k fazes mais, andam se a enrabar uns aos outros?digo desde ja a todas as pessoas(principalmente miudos) para nc irem sozinhos para alpertuche..e perigoso(nao plas ondas nem plo mar)mas por outros motivos... nao respeitem os locias pk as prasia n tem donos...
