planning to next weekend
If you get one decent set wave, you'll have a new favourite wave, guaranteed. I've got a total of two decent set waves out there, and it's my favourite wave as a result

The main problem with box is the inside. It's not always a big deal if you don't make a wave, but you're guaranteed to get absolutely smashed onto the reef by the next few in the set. The few scars I have from bb-ing (not that they're terribly impressive) are from not making it back out in time at Box. Also it's amazing how backless the waves there seem to be... Basically everything about it is on a whole other level to all the other breaks around margs.
