Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Head high, perfect waves at Bali’s premier surf spot this morning. We were the first ones out this morning and it was worth the early start to get a few rides before anyone else paddled out. As the morning progressed, there were more people coming, but we were already heading back for breakfast by 8am. Surf is forecast to pick up this afternoon and will be pumping until Monday.

Swell is a little bit smaller today, but also cleaner conditions and less crowded. The waves were a bit slow coming today and not many good ones, but always at Uluwatu there were a few perfect long rides to be had. It is forecast to be much smaller tomorrow, but there will be another solid swell arriving Thursday and lasting throughout the weekend.

Intermediate surf guiding at Uluwatu

Smaller swell today and mostly head high waves, with the occasional bigger set. Waves were quite soft today and perfect conditions for intermediates to practice turns. The peak was not breaking good today, but the racetrack had some fun waves coming through. Light offshore winds and partially sunny.

Advanced surf guiding at Impossible

The swell was quite small at 6am and it looked like Uluwatu would be the go, but as the tide came in the new swell arrived and there were some solid sets coming through. We decided on Impossibles for a change and was very good at start of the session. Around 9am the wind came on strong, and many of the waves were too fast. There was some bombs that were not too fast. The trick as Impossibles is to pick the wave with a short line as these break the slowest. Long line waves are too fast.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

Uluwatu today the condition of the waves is small than yesterday. The wind was medium strength, but blowing straight offshore so clean, quality waves on all sections of Uluwatu from Temples down to the Racetrack. Not very powerful waves today, which is great conditions for advanced surfer to improve their surfing technique.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

When conditions are right, Uluwatu is one of the best world class waves in the area. Today the spot provided perfect conditions for intermediate looking to improve. Its a great improvement spot for learning carving, pop up quickly and pumping. The waves there are longer and clean. The wind in this season is offshore everyday, so we can enjoy surfing all day.

Advanced surf guiding at Uluwatu

The swell is smaller today but still some occasional big sets coming through. An unusual weather pattern means the wind is more southerly than normal and Uluwatu was again cross offshore, with some bump on the face of the wave. Not many out today and some bomb waves to be had, with the occasional barrel section.

Advanced surf guiding at Bingin

Uluwatu was again very exposed to the wind again today, but much cleaner on the stretch of coastline from Padang2 to Dreamland. Bingin was perfect size today, and very clean conditions. There was around a dozen people out at the beginning of the session, and quite a strong current, but when the tide dropped and the current eased off, there was hardly anyone. We were very lucky to get a golden hour at Bingin with perfect tide and just 5 or 6 people in the water with enough waves in the set for everyone. We had a rain shower but it didn’t last long before the sun returned.
