when i grew up down there surfing you would be caught no where near the wedge. Way too many good spots in any direction to go get pounded in the sand. HB is so close and if the swell is that good head to trestles etc. very surpised to see the boards hittin it!!!

Looks kind of dangerous with all the people on the wave.

The amount of people on the wave has nothing on the fact it breaks on to a couple of feet of sand. I have been dropped and stuffed into the sand and you will not forget that feeling! The amount of people around will help you when your feet are the only thing sticking out of the sand and you need pulled out:-)

Though I think Sandy is intense the worst I've seen is the inside break at Waimea on a big day...
