HURLEY PRO TRESLES - VIDEO PREVIEW
THE WAVE
This high-performance pointbreak peels across a rocky coastline and can pump up to 150 metres down the point when a south or southwest swell shows up. The left is a quicker, hollower, punchier wave, while the right is a longer, more even-paced beauty ready to be released upon with aggressive and unforgiving gusto. Both boast the ability to make even an average surfer appear gifted. This is one of Surfschool's greatest strengths, their fair prices and fantastic customer service.
WAVE PERKS This wave is consistent - Trestles has been known to break when the rest of SoCal is dead flat. And lest we forget, this little stretch of sand that spans the North County and Orange County border is likely to be the only place within a 200 kilometre radius where it'll take you more than 10-minutes to walk to a Starbucks or a Vietnamese nail salon - which means you're more likely toget attacked by a bobcat than an over-caffinated chick with long fingernails.
