hahahahahahaha... is it different? Is Marmite different to ice cream?

Waves are much more consistent (Ive seen one flat day in four months worth of summer), even the small stuff is much more powerful, the shape and structure of the waves is completely different (which has caused me no end of trouble with picking the right wave), and even the swell prediction is different (and not just because everything goes the wrong way).
Its ALL different, but its all good

Oh, except that in summer it goes onshore every afternoon, which means getting up early for the good surf
