If its blowing East, you'll have more fun playing in traffic....If you like barrels (ones which are often hard to make it out of) then this spot is for you.Dont leave valuables in your cab....
Better suited for bodyboarding. The wave bounces back and refracts off the wall, getting you some serious airtime. Usually pretty short but gets longer tith size. Can get some serios barrels here.
Be nice to the locals. Do not hesitate, you will become part of the lip if you do and you will hit the reef. Park in the parking lot just before cape to cuba restaurant, the spot is directly in front of you across the railway lines, small takeoff spot into a hollow spitting barrel section. You can see your car clearly from the lineup and there is usually a car guard in the carpark.Barry McDermid says:Depends on the size really and I'm no expert at the spot but the idea is to get into the wave as early as you can by paddling hard comming at the peak from the right hand side accross it. If you get in early enough you can tuck up after a barrel or do a bit bottom turn around the peak. If you don't get in early enough tucking up into a ball as you nosedive into not very deep water you may find helpfull. Don't try to stand up if you're getting dragged accross the rocks (you'll get a few search urchin spikes in your feet - needle required to extract them) it doesn't last for long.
