Hola! The long trek to the Mentawai Islands begins. 1st stop Bali for few a warm up sessions. How goooood is this place…swell came up today and we scored a meaty 4-6 foot solid freight training left. Massive longs rides, about 200-300 metres if you connected one all the way through. Think I did 1 turn (nothing new there) for the whole day (it was that quick) racing it all the way before pulling out on an inside coral chunk waiting to impale the greedy mofos. Sun is shining…strong offshore and yup – surfing in boardies. Yeeow.
Crew is full on here…peak season…I reckon half or Italy and Brazil are here at the moment. Unruly lineup today…anything goes…bit like Bondi really.
Looks like small East swell is stilling hitting Sydney today. Exposed beaches probably (totally guessing) 1-2 foot with offshores early before swinging onshore SE. Monday to Wednesday next week you’ve got swell – from the south, which is great for the good old Bondage.
If you don’t already know, Aquabumps reports will be broadcast from a very remote part of Indonesia (Mentawai Archipelago) from 3rd Sept to 15th Sept. Thanks to Telstra and a satellite gizmo, you’ll see pics of the most consistent waves on the planet. Swell is on the up and we’re expecting some spectacular sessions…however the reports may come in at odd times…
