HYDROGRAPHIC REFRACTION, TAKEOFF & EXIT CHANNEL PROFILE
Beach & Reef Bottom ProfileWellenmechanik (Sandstrand (Beachbreak)): Langperiodische Dünungszüge (13s+) brechen sich unmittelbar am submarinen Vulkanschelf und bündeln 125 kJ an Wellenenergie in der Takeoff-Zone, während die Welle sauber abläuft. Die benachbarte Fahrrinne leitet das Wasser ruhig ab, ohne Surfer in die Impact-Zone zu ziehen.
1. GOLDENE REGEL FÜR DEN EINSTIEG
Paddle out beside the harbor jetty channel between sets. Because the beach faces SSW, Portugal's prevailing North wind ('Nortada') blows straight offshore into the barrel.
