Toothy right with a bite to match it's intimidating bark, this is close to the gnarliest wave in the Ments. Starts with a beyond vert, no mistakes, quick-as-you-can take-off followed by undulating, sometimes square barrels vortexing down a featureless reef where eventually the coral heads are going to appear in the exit. Even experienced surfers will struggle with the endless tube-time over barely damp, beautifully sharp coral, plus the need for constant speed and readjustment behind the curtain. Low tide is suicide (suitide?) and it seems to hug the reef better in more S swells. North quadrant winds or glassy and crowds wont be a problem here - ever!

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
