Monster mast and a half high heavy sets coming through, terrifying even
hardened wave sailors. Tales of near death experiences all the rage.
‘Man of the match’ was Shawna Cropas, competing with the professional men,
kicking ass winning her second round heat blowing egos right out of the
water as she tore a mast high waves to shreds.
The forecast is nuclear for the rest of the weekend and today, Saturday, is
already shaping up to have some more big wave action.
