it works.. - Surfed here on a Monday morning. Two guys leaving water...One guy still in the water. I though it was alot of fun, and quite clean for wind swell. Much cleaner than the up Island spots.There are a few other spots off Arbutus drive that would be fun as well.

joke - this is a joke right? or should I add Ross Bay to this site cause once and awhile in the worst storms and winds there is a wave that breaks. Localism??? oh please!

Midgets? - looks like it lives up to its name. maybe they should have called it Fairies or Faggots. Seriously folks this is not a surf spot.
