The Wave
Best regular windows are long-period NE swells with winds from the SW (offshore) and an incoming/rising tide that tends to fatten the peel.
Onshore or northerly winds make the face lumpier and reduce ride length.

Lineup Guide
The pier and nearby sandbanks focus peaks close to the structure and can throw stronger rips near the pilings - watch the buoys and current lines and avoid the inside of the pier at size.
