 Flat water is sweet, like skiing corduroy, but I also love bump and jump conditions. I also find when the waves are good size the valleys in between are like glass, those are my favorite conditions, best of both worlds.. :D :D :D :D
my best jumps happen in these conditions, my Ttip is so fast in the flat sections it makes lift off in either direction awesome,
the kickers are just there waiting for you to hit the best.
And downloop landings are the best in these conditions as the length of jump is just so long.
