Still no takers, another clue needed?

It’s either:
Illusions, Apocolypse, Ship Wrecks or Ranger Stations.
They are all the rights on Peucang Isl.

Next time try to make the waves somewhat identifiable.

Apocalypse Panaitan Island, personally I thought it was about as identifiable as any other of the others like Supertubos and Arica.  Posting pics of stuff that’s really easy has been done and I think this makes it more interesting.

To me it just looked like any other Indian ocean right, breaking over reef.
I typed your clues into google and had to go through a number of results to find the info I posted.

Completely see your point though - just don’t want this thread to go stagnant since it’s the most activity the surf section has seen.

My thought is it’s better to keep it flowing by being simple.
On days there is a heap of activity in here by all means throw in a harder one.

I mean I could post this (and a keen surfer would know).

Or I could post this (and anyone with an interest in surf travel would know - making this thread more appealing to more people).

Or I this to make it hard (because it looks like a different wave)

Or this because I think it’s so awesomely named but a total inaccuracy.

All the same place BTW (except the last one) wink

 

Number 3 isdifferent. 1 and 2 Gland 3 teahupoo.

This one gets my blood pumping, interesting to hear the surfers perspective on it as well.

The worlds slowest closeout.
The rare ones made would be life changing.
I swear i saw god once in a pit at cloud9 so i reckon you’d see Muhammad , Buddha and the rest of that crazy crew in one of em.

Not sure if image doing this right?

 

Ok so its there. Easy wave when small and big. When bigger needs commitment off the rocks and to pull in. Gets super crowded
