Big south 05 - Uhhh, errrr, ummmmmm, That's a good sized one. It gets a lot bigger than that. Those pics actually show the fun zone. I like the wide angle one from the top. With the bending walls. This particular swell was a little too much out of the south for the lefts. Great for the rights.There was probably some good lefts, but for the most part, not as good as the rights. But as Fullers goes, this was just a good sized day.

Fullers - A few thing to consider.
Mind your manners.
Don't get in the way. If caught(when) inside, don't try to out run the wave. It stalks you. Not to mention you'll get in the way.
Go by yourself.
Wait your turn.
Watch it for about a hr during a big south. So hemi's have long lulls, and that will catch you off guard. 3 wave hold downs are no fun. Especially when you end up in deadmans.
As for Fullers becoming state property?
Nope. Won't happen.
Locals. Yep, their there. Don't be stupid. Show some respect. Be courteous. Wait your turn. Wait for the shift change.
And, above all, keep your eyes peeled for big fins. You won't be the first one to see one. Or two. Or three. There's a seal rookery just to the south. To the gws, that's their supermarket. When kelp bed sets show up. If you're in the water, if you aren't out far enough, give up. That place can and will beat you with in a inch of your life. You better be in very good condition to take the abuse that place hands out. Because, you will get caught inside. You will take a beating.
On the other hand, that place pumps.
Fullers can handle the biggest of south swells. Just don't get caught inside. The urethane sleigh ride underwater is brutal.
