The Wall - Hillary's

Edit Spot
About

info: thanks to Tom Vaeth

Atmosphere:
I think its pretty good and fun, to try new moves etc. Specially of that wedge on a good day. If its to bad, go for an extra 15min drive south along the coast were you find Trigg Beach, which should be braking alright!

Additional Info:
The wall is a small wedge in the north suburbs of Perth. It wedges because of a groyne/breakwall on tha north side. The south west swell hits it and bounces back forming a nice little wedge. This place only works in a BIG swell, but even then it's only 3-4ft. If ya go out a bit further in a big swell you can ctach a biger wave with a nice longish ride. If not hang around the pipes and wait fer the wedge. Its a short but quick ride mainly going right, but ya can go left and wait fer the double up to come over the top of ya....but dont go too far left into the rocks ! This place is very shallow and a piss easy paddle from shore, great for beginners. I have seen/rode it around 5ft on a 3.5m swell once, it was good, yesterday i went with a 3m swell and it was 3-4ft but packed with shitloads of loittle beginners snakin around me, b4 they got there i had a good surf
