Hey all,
Been researching this trip for almost a year now, can't wait to get down there. I have read a lot on the dangers of northern swells and looking at the forecasts for next week it's looking like I'll be dealing with them quite a bit. I'm trying to get a better sense of when I'm at risk. Forecasts are predicting 1.1m swells from the north to northeast. That sounds pretty benign to me, although maybe less comfortable on the ball overnight.
Is there a particular height that should be setting off alarm bells?
