Dumbea Right Surf Guide
Shallow and short, but perfect and hollow, the Dumbea Right is a fun and consistent setup. If Dumbea Left is crowded, most likely the right will be either vacant or lightly surfed. Takeoffs are generally steep and deep, blasting into a nice wall/shoulder, ending in the shallow channel. It's not too powerful, but the reef is quite sharp and it's right there underneath you. It's also one of New Caledonia's few right-handers.
