To me, this whole East versus West thing seems a bit silly. Like comparing blondes to brunettes, or beer to wine, or Lucky Charms to Cocoa Puffs.
Are we that competitive as a species that we have to make our surf spots compete too?
Sheesh.
With the risk of sounding Reynoldsian, personally I’m just so happy that Planet Earth has oceans and weather to create swell trains on oceans and that there’s different types of land that can change these swell trains into rideable waves that I’m not really worried about which place is better than another place.
