Scar Reef
Edit SpotAbout
IT FIRES ON THE RIGHT DAYS.
Atmosphere:
REAL AMAZING. NICE PEOPLE INCREDIBLE LANDSCAPE AND AWESOME ATHMOSFERE. BAHIA IS THE PLACE WHERE THE ROCKY AND CORAL REEFS FROM NORTHEST REGION ARE STILL HIT BY THE THE STRONG SOUTHERN SWEELS. FURTHER NORTH THE SWEELS TEND TO LOSE INTENSITY AND CONSISTENCY.
Additional Info:
IF YOU ARE LUCKY YOU WILL FIND THE PLACE AND PARK YOUR CAR WITH THE PERMISSION OF THE LAND OWNER IN FRONT OF THE SPOT. IF THERE IS NO ONE IN THE LINE UP IT WILL BE A LITTLE HARD TO LOCATE THE RIGHT TAKE OFF POINT.
BUT WHEN YOU TAKE THE RITHIM IT WILL BE A VERY NICE RIDE WITH VERY STRONG AND FAST WALLS AND OCCASIONAL TUBES. IT WILL BE PERFECT IN A NO WIND DAY WHAT IS NOT SO COMMON IN THE REGION. BUT IT IS RIDEABLE WITH WIND, WHICH IS ALMOST ALWAYS ON SHORE, AS WELL. TAKE CARE WITH THE DROP (A REAL LAUNCHING PAD) UNTIL YOU REALLY ARE ON IT. IF YOU FIND WHERE THE PLACE IS PLEASE DONT FUCK IT UP.
