apparently there is no wind or waves, bring your golf clubs or bananas to feed the monkeys

Not looking to good 62.
Do you reckon its worth going to you know where if theres no wind?

Might have to hire a SUP for Sanur. It's about time you crossed over

Hey Rob, We will be hanging around kite beach Sanur around the end of july, will you still be around then?

Windfinder is having some problem... The Forecast for any point North of the Airport (kuta included) will never show wind...
See the difference between Kuta Reef Airport Left:

And Kuta Reef Airport Rigth:
www.windfinder.com/forecast/bali_kuta_reefs_airport_rights

The 2 spot are just 300 meters from each other! But there is quite a big difference.
The problem is been reported and they are working on it.
For the moment you can look at any spot around Nusa Dua or use Windguru.

Hey HAAK - I see you are from my old stomping ground . Great to see some of the great locations on the SE coast of SA again - miss the surf but not the cold .

Just a warning - you don't want to get mixed up with the Darwin Kite Crew .
Enjoy Sanur and the sun

Hey Eddi,
Where did you do your stomping?
Where you kiting then?

Yeah the surf is pretty good. As for the cold I wouldn't have it any other way. Good for wind and swell

Met a few of the darwin crew a few years ago when up there dodgen mobile reefs.

Yorks, will be in Sanur > 10th Aug chasing a wave, will you be there then?

Nusa Dua looks as though its getting a bit of wind, might be worth a look. Any kiting spots down there?

62, check windguru, not looking to bad on the east coast.
What do you mean your still damaged. Airush Geoff reckons he was gentle with you.

HAAK - lived there for 40 something years - family have a house at Robe , windsurfed/surfed Long beach , Lake George ,Beachport through to Port Macdonnell . Great locations , big surf and not a person , don't mind the cold really as long as it is windy . Kicked around with the likes of Ian Ridley and John Magarey, etc .
Great times but Darwin is great too .
Crossed over to the dark side when I moved and just coming to terms with all the string .

Ian and John are still windsurfing, John bought my sons shack at Nene Valley a few years ago.
We probably cross paths somewhere back then. I windsurfed for 15 years before crossing over 10 years ago.

Hey Jankie,
Windguru for Balian is only stating 6 / 7 knots, would this be right or is there another site I should be checking for Balian?

Sorry I don't know.... Today we had 18 knots pretty much everywhere and normally Balian is a couple of knots more then the other spot.. SO probably forecast are not working for the west coast.
