general information

An intense spitting barrel over an offshore reef. It can't handle a massive swell, head high plus is the optimum, coming from the south west with northeast winds. Check it at mid to low tide early in the morning before the southwesterlies get up and ruin this wind sensitive tube. Experience necessary.
