Velzyland

North Shore, USA
🪸Sharp reef👊Localism🌀Strong rips

Velzyland, named after pioneering shaper Dale Velzy, is a high-performance reef break at the eastern end of the North Shore's miracle mile. This fast, hollow wave rewards commitment and quick reflexes, offering short but intense barrels that have provided launching pads for air sections since the aerial revolution began. The wave's speed and the shallow inside section demand respect, while the strong local crew ensures that those who paddle out have earned their place. V-Land is where North Shore surfing meets pure adrenaline.
