It all went down south of Cape Town on May 27th 2009, says Anthony. We had been waiting for the swell and wind to co-operate and made a plan to hit this particular spot as all the factors came together. It's not often that the wind (not too strong) and the perfect swell direction combine for this spot. The forecast was pretty spot-on as far as the size and swell direction with nothing counting in your favour like a little local knowledge of where to go.

spent 3 southern winters surfing in and around Cape Town. As a English surfer the waves always seemed so much bigger, harsher and wilder than any I got here.
So god damn sharky. Pretty sure I know which this break was.
