Just back from Bali. I had 18 days of freedom before starting a new job & not going to get any lengthy time off till this time next year. Was originally going to go the Great Southern, then considered Lombok via Jetstar at the last minute. But my smallest boards are 6'4 & didn't want to risk it with the 6'2 rule. Was considering a a 2nd handy 6'2 but then Garuda had tickets to Bali, return for $400. So just went the easy option & I'm stoked we did. Had some good size swell, a little too big at times & the winds were a bit dry season like. But I think that helped even things out a bit. Coz the Komune crowd has made a big impact, spilling out onto what were reliable low crowd options.


Crazy thing happened while we were over there. A security guy from somewhere around the Hyatt resort, not Hyatt security but some other poor bugger got strangled by a Python. Apparently its some rare or unusual non native Python that got him. Freaky coz we were just a lil North in front of Tanjung rights. But anyway enough blah, here's some barrels.

Great surfing mate real barrel hunting

if you scroll down with your mouse at just the right speed , you get that,moving picture book thing going on nice! very nice!!!!
p.s i know, i know, small things

Yeah Mac, I was fully focused on barrels this trip, get a bit barrel starved locally...Tortise, I'll get a vid editied soon. should make it easier LOL...Missus is awesome at filming now, I'm a lucky bloke. A guy tryed to sell us some shots one day & she already had it covered. Did great until the local Balo buys found out she was a Japanese teacher & wanted to test their J language skills. But the last couple of days were nowhere as good anyway with morning high tides.....Cheers guys
