jack's "jacks" Explanation: "jacks" Jacking - A wave condition in which a swell rises very quickly as it passes from deeper water to shallow water. A radical shoaling process caused by an extreme variation in water depth as the swell hits the shallow reef or ocean floor. Often creates very hollow and intense waves that appear to grow suddenly in height; thus "jacking up". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs (2020-09-02 12:15:10 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- https://www.facebook.com/magicseaweed/posts/nazare-is-jackin... |

jack's Onde o vento faz a curva Explanation: Creio que seja uma expressão idiomática, "Jack's swells" seria o equivalente ao "Onde o vento faz a curva". A frase "Walk down the jetty and paddle out to sea, where the left-hander Jack’s swells right in front of the resort" Ficaria "Desça o píer e reme até o mar, onde o vento faz a curva, bem em frente ao resort" |
