crapper
yeh this break is good but everyone that surfs it is a homo. all the pros clog up the line-up. they get to surf all over the world and then they come home and think its their god given right to get every decent wave that rolls through. they can piss off. as for localism here or anywhere for that matter: you may live locally, but the only thing you own is the patch of land you paid for so go and localise your house by all means but you cant claim to own a break just because you live near it. half of you rent anyway.

Jellyfish
Snapper is a world class wave but the place is infested with jellyfish. Watch out for them around dusk when they come out to feed. Theres already been several attacks this year.
