Secret Spot - Screaming Lefts!

AUSTRALIA | Monday, 12 February 2007 | Views [952]

Double overhead sets were rolling through at what the locals call their secret spot in Kalbarri.  Better known on the map as Jake's point, this spot reels in lefts off the point; big steep takeoffs deep infront of the rocks on the edge of the headland, with a fast drop, and then into a barreling pit.  It was a beautiful sight, with offshores steadily blowing.  The picture we've captured shows a smaller wave with a local screaming down the shoulder.  When the sets came through, there were 4 to 5 good solid double overhead waves, and only 4 guys out having a blast.

In typical form for the West Coast here, the early day is beautiful, off shore winds, and sunny hot weather.  The winds tend to kick in around 11 or 12 and then just pick up heavily blowing onshore all day. 

The sunset was amazing - from oranges and reds, to deep purples and maroons, the sky was on fire.  A great end to the day.
