Edit SpotAbout
This is a decent surfing spot and should only be visited if you know what you are doing. The wave is steep and fast, occasionally hollow and you have to jump over the shoulder quickly if it closes out on you, which can frequently happen. Beginners and intermediates, stay down at RAT.
Atmosphere:
This wave is a fast left just around the corner from Haggerties, but might be considered upper Haggerties. Swell comes in fast, jump on your board quickly and race down the line. On too low a tide you can hit the rocks or be forced into the rock zone. By the way, all the locals here are pussies.
Additional Info:
On bigger North Wests this spot starts to break. It's a fast breaking hollow left hander.
