A mind-blowing right that looks just like the cartoons you drew on your old school books. Without question, it’s one of the best waves on the planet. Rifles works from around head high and can hold size, breaking mechanically long, hollow, and fast. Conditions have to be just right, Rifles needs a swell with a distinct south direction in it and winds with some west and not too strong. Surfers have been known to log over 6 barrels on one wave at Rifles, and many say if you are lucky enough to score an epic day here it could truly be the best session of your life.
