you got to ride the wave correctly here! DO NOT WANT TO SCREW IT UP! if you do your in for a beating by the waves. you got to pop up quick and get set quick or else your in for it.
Atmosphere
Currently the dune here is under construction and access is limited. This break lends itself more to bodyboarding, breaks right on the beach, hollow.
General
I think the spot is good and while your there you need to respect the locals!

the real deal on Wabasso - Real Heavy, lots of barrels. The little store there, Boppy's, has a shower with Hot water.

Locals- That's funny! - Beach break which breaks right on the beach, More suited to bodyboards then surfboards. Locals, who is calling themselves locals now, the class of 2012? Just go and have fun, have been surfing here for 30 years, no problems. If the locals get tough with you tell their parents, ha.
