I've surfed that spot... Years ago now... Never at 10 feet tho... Only at waist to chest high... At that size the right breaks... Only about 10 yards off a rock shelf... So that if you blow it... You or your board get crunched... Never felt comfortable surfing there either... Figger it was the balance between... Munch & Crunch.
I got that spot at around the same size, doc...once. Been by there a few other times and even waited it out for several hours in hopes the tide change would open things up. I'm still waiting for my second chance.
