Great waveriding action. I liked it more than those vids of monster waveriding in Maui.

Where it is? I guess if you follow a Toyota 4wd with windsurfing gear on a windy Saturday or Sunday morning, they will probably lead you to it. Don't sandgroper windsurfers drive vans?

Just keep asking questions. Sooner or later they're bound to give one too many hints...

Don't expect me to join you, unless it's a smallish swell.

Came in on buckets last couple of sails, has anyone ever broken a leg there?
It sucks putting your gear on the ferry to get there.

It;s not stubbing you're toes that's the problem, it's one hole leg going down a bucket sized hole, then a wave breaking on you, even worse if you've got the gear in your hands.

Don't even think about standing up coming in over buckets, unless you can clearly see the bottom and miss the holes, otherwise float in as flat as you can.

Yes Mr no-one it is pretty scary coming in over buckets with a broken leg.
I don't recommend it. Each wave that pushed me in wanted to draw me back out for another go, so I'm gripping the reef with my hands so tight so i don't get my already bent leg further bent by getting rolled into a hole. The guys had to come and grag me out of the water.

not my best day of sailing!
