waves are the best.

You have flat sections in between and ramps for boosting/flat passing.

Hmmmmm waves.

As Clay Marzo put it perfectly, toys from God.

But Its all good when its good

Flat can be super sweet, if you find it boring that's a comment on you.

Chop is sometimes all were given, but even then it surprises me what people settle for.

Most times its choppy, there are different locations within reach that offer much better riding. Its just a matter of finding them. Having been at it for so long there is a nucleus of riders around here who know exactly where their headed when the wind comes in at any given direction.

Nicely formed swell (bump and jump) conditions like good great lakes or even better, river swell gorge like conditions can be epic too. Some action packed riding to be had there. Makes you sore as hell too.

Bille: you should look into rock shock legs.
