Classic - I actually think this spot is a lot of fun, but it is indeed crowded, and some comedy groms in the lineup. I saw one OBESE grom out there one day, and paddled on him, figuring he was a kook. This kid ripped sh#t up and even busted a little fat kid air. Crazy!

agreed - such a fun wave, it's a shame there are like 325346642 people in the lineup on a daily basis, you really gotta catch it at wierd times if you want to get waves...unless you're one of the hardcore locals that knows how to pull it off even with the crowds. if you catch it empty (which IS possible if you're patient) you'll be in heaven.

THE Name is ARMA HUT - WOW , the GOOMERS have really taken over the North Shore!Back when itwas REAL, it went ; the HUT,Rocky Rights or Death Rock, GAS CHAMBERS and Turtles.I spent 3 years there 74-76,lived at Rocky, pipe side of A frames, crowds were doable cuz there was still RESPECT in the water. Not the kind of shit going on now; bitch-punks at Pipe that think 5 on 1 is a MANLY thing to do !!!EDDIE is going to haunt these punks dreams for the disrespect shown O.M.O.
