Taotai - Club Med right
Edit SpotAbout
I still have dreams of this wave. We called it Marie Antoinette's at the time. A very shallow bowl that shuts off in a deep channel. Over 6ft it pulls too much water off the reef and is truly too dangerous.
Additional Info:
The same as the left but more dangerous....
