Supertubos is a pumping sandbar that offers both
left and right barrels running at the speed of a
freight train, perfectly hollow yet never forgiving.

largest fishing industries, it’s a bustling, working-class economy.
At first glance you’d never assume it held any secrets –
but if you look just a little bit closer, you’ll see that it plays
host to one of the world’s best barrels.
