Old Man's
Edit SpotAbout
Head down the way to zippers if you want a faster hollower wave
Additional Info:
I have lived in Los Cabos for almost 7 years. The only time I surf Old Mans is when a girl wants me to teach her how to surf. It is a long board wave that is soft, mellow, and easy. If credibility is important, change the world class to fun wave.
