OMG!!! I don't know if anyone would want to be there. But if I knew I would not die I would body board that.

Half that thing is sand thats going to crash into like a couple inches of water!!! Probably feel like a building crashing on you if you wiped out on that thing. The spongers from "The Wedge" should look at this thing...

thats a super heavy shore break of death, howling offshore or no wind, certainly wouldn't get me in there

Looks like the wave from the Guiness Ad, plenty of horses jumping through that one.

Has anyone ever surfed with a condom on ? Just a condom ....well and maybe booties....Anyone try ? I love surfing naked but the conditions sometimes cause my weiner to shrivel up to the size of a toothpick ! Would a condom keep it warmer ? and help me with my pelvis stalls in the barrel ? ?

This wave is solid 6-8ft, at least double overhead, thick as a whole team of footy players and breaking in ankle-knee deep water. Call me a wuss but it was the scariest shorey i've ever witnessed and could not have been paid enough to even attempt taking off.

Nah, I surfed it on my longboard a couple of years ago, epic, really beautiful spot. NZ, best country in the world. (I am slightly biased being kiwi tho.)
