Masulo's Wave
Alessandro Rodrigues Garofalo
Masulo's Wave (Single)
DESCRIPTION
This photo was taken at Maresias beach this year. This kind of offshore wind blowing on the crest of the wave happens when it meets the best conditions for surfers (a combination of south swell and east offshore winds), where the wave produces the best barrels and it only happens a few days over the year.
I called it Masulo's because it breaks in front of a friend's house whose name is Masulo.
