general information
Just west of Acid Drop lies Heroins. A critical wave that is reserved for pros, hellmen and crazy boogies. Dredges up heavy over a very shallow reef providing almost square right hand barrels that are short and intense. Wipeout here and you will meet the reef and then then rocks which lie just in front of the break. Likes clean mid-sized south to southwest swells.
