A good friend of mine is moving over end of the week,I look forward to many a good time with him in the near future.
Lucky guy, I'd love to spend more time over there. I could get a job in the NT health services easily & live in Bali. But my missus profession is tied here & she's in a good place. One day I will buy like 6 return tickets when a special is on & go over for a month or 2 at a time. Do like it here too apart from the bloody sharks...
Heaps of bules living there these days. Luckily or not so luckily they (Indo's) just keep building more & more accomodation, so I doubt it will ever get expensive for accomodation in our life time.
North Sumatra-Small but a ball![]()
This right is really good,hollow and fast especially through the inside where it gets shallow,several sneaker sets came through this session which caught us out of position to get them,such a great wave

fun A Frame out front,it barrels,is fast and wally,not a great pic to do the wave justice but will post a couple showing how good it can be even on a small day

Better day at the A Frame it'll handle 6-8 ft with right swell direction but really needs a bit of offshore on it to stop it sectioning off,this morning it was bowling right through and id say this was one of my better waves as I was having a shocker after 2 days of 3 two hour surfs per day after being out of action for 6 months,surprising i even got to my feet.Had a rest day the next day took some drugs and was back into it.Seems like as Im getting older I'm packing more pharmaceuticals each trip than I'm packing surf gear![]()
Looks filth Ricardo, spew'n I didn't end up going...you were surfing bloody good for someone who had been out of the water so long. Stoked to hear/see you had a great trip & hope to see more pics. Always nice to see pics of the land too I reckon.
And how was Bali
Doubt small crowded Ulu's would have impressed you much after Sumatra lol ![]()
Yeah Mick Its has great variety of waves,really uncrowded and a good vibe with the local islanders,alcohol is the only problem as its sharia law but you can bring duty free in or pay premium price for a slab but its a hassle.




Looks so beautiful mate, I hope it does not change before I get a chance to visit ![]()
The bloke above on the right is the spitting image of Rosyid who made my last 2 boards.
Pic from back in March only small but fun at the right time in the tide. Heading back over on Wed, forecast for the week looks ok for me ![]()

Nice dude, I was under that brown roof in the middle of the pic just 3 weeks ago. Already feels like months ago.
Indosurflife appears to be on holiday, but in case anyone was interested Slim posted some tide charts he scored off Peter Neely. I've been frothing to see these & stoked to see near perfect tides for my trip in 2 weeks, just need swell & all should be well ![]()

Ok Mick I'll see what I can do mate. Do you hang around the huts as you drive in? Shame I can't get hold of Ted.
