HYDROGRAPHIC REFRACTION, TAKEOFF & EXIT CHANNEL PROFILE
Beach & Reef Bottom ProfileDinamika Ombak (Pasir & Karang): Garis alun berperiode panjang (11dtk+) langsung membiaskan saat menyentuh paparan vulkanik bawah laut, memusatkan energi ombak 70 kJ ke area takeoff sementara ombak mengelupas rapi. Saluran arus di sampingnya mengalirkan air dengan lancar tanpa menyeret peselancar ke zona tubrukan.
