Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu
★★★★★
This morning we took the early boat to Toro Toro, hoping to get in a session before the new swell arrived. It was a building swell this morning, and although not much bigger than yesterday, it was much more powerful. The first day of a new swell is usually the most powerful as the higher period faster waves arrive first. We decided to go take a look at what was going down at Uluwatu. A few hell men on big boards riding big boards. 2019 world champion Italo Ferriera was out there on a shortboard, ripping it up. A bit of wind on it made for challenging conditions, but good to watch with a cold Bintang.
