Intermediate surf guiding at Balangan

Dreamy surf conditions at Balangan this morning! Mornings like these are what draw people to this magical island. The swell has dropped in size and intensity over the previous few days, which saw a very long period swell. The swell period has returned to a more normal reading for this time of year, which is helpful for our intermediate surfers. The overhead left-breaking waves were particularly clean this morning, which is expected as we approach the end of the dry season. The surfers marvelled at how much fun the session was, with everyone getting their share of waves.

The surfers worked on getting drive from their bottom turns, which is done by applying pressure to the rail of the surfboard while maintaining balance with an arm over each rail.
