China walls
Edit SpotAbout
super fun, hollow wave. one of the more diversely technical spots iºve ever surfed.
Atmosphere:
because of the situation of the waves breaking left off the rocks you must sort of wait in line to get waves. haoleville, but respect locals there.
Additional Info:
different aspects to this cool scenic spot. when small it breaks inside off a rock called the finger. when a bit larger, it breaks along side a cliffwall in a pointbreak sort of way all the way through the finger. super scary takeoff as the wave wedges off the wall. when the swell is big it shows further out into moanalua bay into china walls proper. heavy waves when itºs on.
