“The inside right Breaks right in to the off-shore trade winds But the real wave Is the big outside left best during hurricanes Rarely surfed, I surfed the outside twice both during hurricane swells Waves up to 6-10+. Wave doesn't close out due to the deep drop off as wave hits a deep shoulder quickly but you can watch The wave wind Down the reef before you take off at the end section Bottom turn Hit the lip and then a giant cut back,from there the wave hits deep water.”
