Can someone tell me where's Tubamancha, how to get their and how it works?

>Tuba's great for beginning wave sailing as it's side off, protected, and
>loses out less than most beaches.

I am NO Tuba expert, I live and work on the peninsula and sail the coast
north of SC. But I have sailed Tuba before, and would like to make sure that
any beginning wave sailor understands the qualification of the statement:
"Tuba's great for beginning wave sailing as it's side off, protected, and
closes out less than most beaches."

This statement about the wind and wave conditions is correct, Tuba is a
great wave to learn how to go down the line and the wind is usually strong
(when it is windy) and it comes in from the correct direction. However,
this statement did not include the information about the required entry/exit
to this wave sailing venue, which requires a LONG open ocean reach in
sometimes overpowering and OFFSHORE conditions. The waters off this part of
the coast can be very rough, cold, and overpoweringly windy. With this in
mind, I would consider Tuba an advanced/expert spot that should be given the
respect it is due. Sail with a buddy and make sure that ALL your equipment
is ready for this type of sailing (i.e. bomber (relatively new) boom, check
uni and all lines). A single failure on the outside reach back and forth
to Tuba is going to be an expensive POA, and could result in loss of gear at
the very least (Best Case Scenario). For the details of the launch and
reach, review the great write up that Zeev_Gur/PeopleSoft@peoplesoft.com-DeleteThis put
together in the spring that can be found at
http://www.hpl.hp.com/personal/Ken_Poulton/wind_talk/archive1999.hyp/0353.ht
ml.

I recommend that anyone who wants to learn how to sail at Tuba, find a
sailor with Tuba experience and get mentored on the details of the spot.
Review wind talk posting (usually in the spring) over the past couple years
to glean who sails there regularly and send them mail. The guys who sail
Tuba are strong, competent, and safe sailors who should be interested in
mentoring new wave sailors. This is a VERY remote spot, so if you are
mentally/physically ready to ride out there, the people who sail there are
always looking for new blood to go out with, because no one should go out
there alone. Enjoy.

Best Regards,

Gordon.
