everything about the whole place is heavy. it's the most difficult wave i've ever surfed. half the takeoffs are late and the barrels are supertight as you pull in so you need to stay real high which isn't easy if you're airdropping half the time... you want a longer board to get in early, but then a shorter one to maneaver in the pocket. i settled for my 6'6 pintail, but i wish i had dave's 6'4. little bit wider than the standard 6'4 potatoe chip everyone rides so it paddles well and a nice little pintail to tighten it up in the barrel. but back to the wave... it's really just shallow everywhere and runs forever getting more and more shallow (if that's possible) the further you get. incredibly difficult backside wave

Surf spots :
One Palm Point : A long hollow left hand point that spin freight train like barrels up to 800m long, most perfect, dangerous shallow left-hand barrels reels across a reef point. You need a sturdy board to get into that waves as early as possible. Then set a rail and go for maximum speed. Mid tide seems best and the waves starts to work at just 3 ft or more of south swell.
Napalm : Probably the most frequently surfed wave at Panaitan, and with good reason. The left-hand reef here delivers barrels with mechanical perfection, and they are more make able than One Palm thanks to a defined channel. Take-offs are straight-forward, then a lined-up wall leads to a full-on barrel before tapering off into deep water. Higher tides are best if you want to avoid the shallow second section.
Illusion : world class epic right reef with a smooth take off, workable walls and barrel section
Indicator : A fun workable right hander
Apocalypse :
Crock & Rolls : A left that has been described as little Padang-Padang (
Pussy’s : An easy with fun workable walls breaking into deep water
And : a secret spot on mainland the park
