Atmosphere:
the first indo type wave i ever saw.hollow ledgy and out in the deep water makes you feel vunerable being at one of the most southern points of nz.slope ponit is level with this spot.
Additional Info:
it's prtty full on.long paddle out off a cliff,round the outside of a big deep water kelp bed.need some mates to go with or you could get into trouble.deep black water and scares the hell out of you.
