What’s on the other side of the channel. what are you looking at as you come out of the wave?
On a perfect SW swell you should be looking at the beautiful island of Tahiti, exiting into the deep water channel, with all the boats and people cheering or just yourself. However if there is too much west in it that’s when you can be looking at a massive right hander coming at you which is breaking right over the several inches of water. That’s when you want to get out of the wave, quick! Too much west can be dangerous.
