Thanks man!That cutback....
Not surprised to hear everyone blows it multiple times. Confirms what I've been told - not an easy wave to surf.
The right is a little bigger and better for sure. The wind is a factor but I think also something with the bottom maybe. Theres some gnarly end section rights that go square. They often run the CT3 on the left and CT2 on the right. They said once the wind is a factor the CT2 on the left closes out to the fence. Even CT3 crumbles most the wave but then doubles up on the inside. Its shallow in there and holds you down for way too long.
I still kinda don't believe it, lol. As a teen, I remember seeing Phil Roberts drawings and wilbur kookmeyer cartoons in Surfer. I remember raging rivers and wild waters and all the other crap basket pools. This thing is amazing. A perfect wave seriously in the middle of nowhere-land.
You're too kind. Its got a learning curve for sure. I didn't add in the 5 waves I got tossed on after I got hung up in the lip. lol! Your friends described it pretty spot on. Its a runner with a super curvy face. Lots of digging rails happen.
You get two one hour heats. They have split waves so theres more waves ridden. So instead of one long 700 yard burner, you split it into two 350 sections. Each heat you end up with about 10 waves because people are falling all over the place. Its a tricky wave. So heats are 6 people and one hour long. The food and beverages there are all inclusive and super Healthy/clean.
Off the lips might be the hardest thing cause there isnt really a lip and if there is its super steep. Also the top of the wave doesnt push back like ocean waves do. Now I understand when I would see that contest and pros would get hung up at the top. Theres not much power on that part of the wave. I got some carves in but thats about it. i cant do airs so it was pretty much tube hunting and carves. Hold downs are ridiculous. it moves along like a rushing river and keeps dragging you for 20 yards underwater. Its wild.
They always have that straight on 4K camera on and its part of the package. The jetski welcomes filmers to ride as well. Non surfing guests can come for an extra $100 or so. They also have a rack of new Rip Curl wetsuits you can use and 30 boards from Firewire/SD you can try out.
