Volcom Fiji Pro -- big and perfect Cloudbreak or medium and really perfect Restaurants?

So here's the rundown. The ASP (Pro Surfing) World Tour is having a contest right now in Fiji. They've gotten through half of the contest, and suddenly someone tells the event organizers that there's a fucking Rosie O'donnell-size-swell coming straight for Fiji. They put the event on hold waiting for the massive waves.

They can choose to run the event at a choice of 2 waves. A) 'Restaurants', which will be perfect 8-10 foot barrells that run for several hundred yards, or B) 'Cloudbreak', which will be 25-30 foot waves with condiminium-sized tubes, but less perfect, and much shorter than 'Restaurants'

They are debating which wave to run the contest at. What do you think?

PS: I'm adding some pictures of the 2 waves so you have a better perspective

who cares, it's summer anyway, i watch the webcast every night (europe) when the comp is on, i'm not sure, whats better for my fantasyteam, but i'd go with cloudbreak, if they guarantee jetski assist.

Cloudbreak. Put those pros through their paces. Restaurants is sick, but has been done so many times on the CT.
