Abstract
⺠A very early retroflection of the Agulhas current was formed after shedding off three Agulhas rings. ⺠This retracted retroflection moved west in the following 5 months without ring shedding. ⺠The subsurface retroflection agrees with RS images of SST and SSH. ⺠The Agulhas retroflection extends to a depth of at least 750 m, and likely deeper. ⺠The early retroflection is a scarce and contingent phenomenon, mainly governed by chance.
