Not the prme choice of any surfer. lots of pits(nasty teahpoo closeouts) but when it goes off with just the right conditions it is a excellent wave compared to the the east coast. the sand seem to be more moveable the wave can get too shallow and dump so it does eat man boards cmpared to other places. but the gulf of mexico does get swell mind you and now you know that

I AGREE - Who is proofreading this tripe? Also, who controls who posts ?If you can't get the coast right, how can I buy the other shite? Hold on, let me post that Allentown PA has a world class "in the top 30 wave" in the wave pool.
