what? world class? - Who ever says this is world class has never surfed a world class wave. please! this spot is a beach break that is rarely good. Believe me, I surf nearby almost every swell.

Its really not a 4 star spot!! - I've lived 8 years in front of that spot, not in front of the pier since I saw it being built and being removed... When the pier was still up there was a 75% chance you would find some nice, opening fun waves...Many other days i would get there and waves were closing out. Now a days without the pier, i should say its one of the worst surf spots in rio!!! no more good waves...

no pier - there´s no pier anymore. the waves are still good, as it´s a good beachbreak (barra da tijuca) with good sandbars, but the pier used to help produce a nice sandbar.

- Ok i'm from florida and the waves in rio make it worth a trip so its not a world class break, but if your a good surfer u can make the best of it. There is a bunch of cry babys on this site.......

- okay, great surfing days in Australia, but your women, you cooky, is a bunch of drunk hookers, but i think it´s nota problem for you, australian guys, because your are always drunk and shitting around.
Rio is a great city, with good surf, not like cali, oz or hawwaii, but awesoem chicks and views...

go if it looks good - ive been living in front of this spot for a year now, its definatly a great wave when working and have scored it big time. The Right that breaks good when 3-5f is fast,heavy and walls up for a good hitting and barrels.On the left side its a sweet paddle out next to the pier and breaks 2-5f a fast left and a slower right. Have fun if you score good and wave to me if you see a gringo chick, kat

3 Stars at most - People tends to get emotional about the ratings of spots, specially of their local favorites...But lets face it, Rio doesnt offer world class waves...Pier is a good alternative, nice tubes when the conditions are ideal, but dont expect great surfing on an average day.
