Too much traffic for me. Plus that runout looks mighty short. I'm not a big fan of being firmly embedded in the sand under a breaking wave. I've been there a few times and can't say the rides around the drubbing were worth it. I'll stick with the boring east coast waves on a gentle sloping beach. I like to bail off the waves just as they break, leaving the breaking sequence to the surfers. 21' boats just don't turn fast enough to play in the break zone. One more comment on the surf skier traversing the wedge. He was on his way out to paddle the waves around and beyond the shore break, he wasn't there for rides in/on the wedge.
