 Informations supplémentaires

Langberg Point or spook (ghost) as we call it is a challenging and heavy wave to surf whenits on. Problem is that is usually only in the winter months. Needs a HUGE swell (atleast 8+)to start working and wrapping around the point properly. Kind of like the Vlees Bay of the West coast so it works rarely but when it does its classic. Dangerous and shallow. The point is a rocky ledge that drops straight into deep water so its best on high tide. Looks simular to a spot called 'Deadmans' in Australia. I will add pics as soon as i take them or as soon as i catch it on again.

Atmosphère

Dought whether anyone has surfed here. Dangerous beast of a wave. Gets long. Theres a beachbreak aswell that is more consistent than the point but you okes dont need to drive too far to find many awsome secret spots. lots of potential along here, just make the effort to drive and you'll find something.

Author Saffajono writes:"Difficult to explain." for access to Langberg Pt. - I think you've done a super job explaining how to get to this spot. What's a shame is that you seem like a well-spoken, educated, & polite individual; I'm still not sure of your gender or persuasion though, but never mind that. What I think is difficult to explain is not concerning access here, Mr. J-person if don't mind, it's wheter or not you should still be running free whilst you continue writing 'fairy-tales' about SW African surf spots. Could you explain THAT for me Bru?
