It's a barrel at the peak then it either keeps barreling or turns into a short wall. Around this reef its really deep so no waves break around it. its just a shallow shelf in the ocean.
Atmosphere
Very mellow with no one out. Only a few people know of this place and if you don't know where to look, you'll never find it.
General
very sick! it's an imitation of velzy land but just a little shorter ride.

wah!? - can't believe how crowded this area is getting, I grew up surfing there and surrounding areas, there are plenty of "secret" spots around that area but I ain't spillin the beans. sorry to see someone already did.
