Point Break 10 Regular Seeds
Unknown (suggested Tangie/Tropicanna x Cookie/Gelato)
Point Break is a modern indica-dominant hybrid developed by Surfr Seeds, gaining recognition for its terpene-forward profile and robust structure. This strain is favored by cultivators for its potential in breeding and its appealing sensory characteristics.
Appearance
Point Break typically develops medium to large colas with strong apical dominance. Its buds feature a favorable calyx-to-leaf ratio, making them moderately easy to trim. The pistils mature from peach to a deeper burnt orange, contrasting with lime to forest-green bracts. Some phenotypes may exhibit purple marbling under cooler late-flowering temperatures. The buds are densely packed with trichomes, giving them a frosty, almost salted appearance.
Aroma & Flavor
The aroma of Point Break evolves from bright citrus peel to more complex notes of tropical candy and creamy undertones as it cures. When ground, it releases scents of orange zest, pineapple, and vanilla wafer. Warmer expressions may include hints of black pepper or spice. Flavors often mirror the aroma, presenting a layered profile of citrus, candy, cream, and floral notes.
Effects
Point Break is reported to produce a tingly sensation, contributing to its overall sensory experience. While specific effects are still being documented, its terpene profile suggests a nuanced impact beyond simple intoxication. The strain's breeding emphasizes sensory differentiation, aiming to provide a distinct and enjoyable experience for the consumer.
Terpenes & Cannabinoids
This strain typically contains THC levels ranging from 15-25% and less than 1% CBD. Its terpene profile is a key characteristic, with Limonene, Caryophyllene, Linalool, and Ocimene frequently noted. These terpenes contribute to the strain's complex aroma and flavor, and are thought to modulate the overall user experience.
Growing Characteristics
Point Break generally requires 8-10 weeks for indoor flowering. It exhibits hybrid vigor with a moderate stretch after light cycle changes, and can benefit from trellising. The strain is noted for high trichome density and resin production, making it suitable for solventless extraction. It is considered a competitive cultivar for aroma intensity and market viability under optimized conditions.
Origins & Lineage
Developed by Surfr Seeds, Point Break is a modern hybrid whose exact parental lineage is not widely standardized. Grower observations suggest heritage connected to Tangie/Tropicanna-type oranges and dessert-leaning strains like cookies or gelato. This combination is believed to contribute to its balanced hybrid structure and complex terpene profile. It was highlighted by Leafly Buzz in August 2024 after a notable indoor run by Bosky Genetics.
