La Santa
Edit SpotAbout
its totally diferent from all the waves on the south of puerto rico, its something dangerour that still pulls you in. Its a clean left,so its hard to find here on the south, something like patillas Inches.
Atmosphere:
Its a dangerous wave, but youll have to see it as an experience, ones you get used to the dangers, you will have fun jeje
Additional Info:
ull need to be aware of the reef that will rise up when the wave its coming, ull pass a few af the when you ride the wave, so be carefull, u will see when the wave its about to end because at the end of the wave you will see a cown of reef coming out, dont get to cokky and try to end up the wave...justhold back your ego and get out of the wave
