Surfing the Maverick (Pacifica, California) is nature’s way of getting rid of the fools, stupids and arrogants...and any mixture thereof.
Mavericks is closer to Half Moon Bay than Pacifica.
“For fools.”
Even for those who watch. One year a rogue wave came up and took out a spectator stand. Several people were hurt a couple seriously. I believe there were two broken legs.
