photos - this wave was good from late summer through early fall. now it is a terribly deep hole that doesnt ever break. the first picture above is Jason Andre and was taken at the LIGHTHOUSE in buxton, and not the first ramp(askins creek) in avon. the second picture was taken there though, it is Will Skudin.
