Yes it is a big wave and anywhere else in the world would be considered one of the premier spots in it’s locale.

 

Not very confidently I will say Velzyland.

Got it Deebs. Probably my favourite wave over there, to this day probably had my biggest and longest barrel of my life at that spot. Still very vivid mental images in my head of that wave, felt big enough to do star jumps inside and everytime I thought it was going to let me out another section threw out and I had to pump and weave through it and just as I was about to come out it would happen again.

There was about 4 sections I got through before I managed to squeak out the doggy door, I remember doing about mach 10 across the flats in front of it while it closed out and putting my hands on my head in semi disbelief. On the paddle back out I got a lot of comments, one in particular stood out from a very hawaiian looking bloke “oh bra you were so deep man I cant believe you made that thing”.  I was grinning from ear to ear for the rest of that surf.

 


This one is a body surf and lid wave but the left opposite can just be ridden stand up. I got absolutely hammered bodysurfing here at half this size
Im a bit embarrassed I guessed log cabins now. The view was one I hadnt seen before. 
Are u sure ur hands on head wasnt a claim? Haha
U could be forgiven after one like that.
