Yes 90% is port tack wave riding on the Taranaki coast.
The photos look like Kina Road on NW wind direction which also works in SE.
Being natural foot I used to favor starboard tack wave riding and takes time to feel good port tack wave riding.
Sure there are times where the swell pumps and the wind kicks in for the same direction for a few days but then NZ is an island where fronts come through and being able to make the most of the conditions so adapt to what ever wind direction on the day.
The Taranaki Coast is awesome and if you want good conditions get there
