Definition : A-frame

Definition: When the wave rolls in both directions, at left and rightThis type of wave is called a-frame. This makes it possible to surf abreast for goofy and regular.

Seen from above, we can clearly see the A-shape of the 2 waves.

We often find this shape on reefbreaks, such as Leakey Peak in Sumbawa.

This allows 2 surfers to ride the same wave!
