Description

A great on-the-fly wave. August 2013 this is a huge fast glassy wave! 6100-6800 is good.
August 2016, 3600 is good. At this level its one of the biggest waves on the Snake, along with Kahuna and the left hole in Double D.
After a short pool below, there is a stout section with more big waves.
