Re: Where did you surf today ?
Offshores, sun and swell today, all day, and more to come. Very low tide this morning with a long period swell. Only a few out, as it's a long period swell there's long waits between sets.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
There's three major take-off zones spread over 600m. It's doesn't really work until it's overhead (the bigger the better), the swell is from a particular direction, and the offshore is blowing. Lots of closeouts, it sections really, really fast, every move, and your line, has to be focused on gettin...

Re: Where did you surf today ?
They seem to mainly cover the Canggu area with less frequent forays just about anywhere else in Bali.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
At least a decent period swell from a good direction - 19s SSW - though small, is supposed to arrive late morning. For the week I've been here it's been 6-10s from 3 different directions and wind affected.
Swell energy goes from the last week's 150-250kJ to 400-900kJ for the next week.

Fcuk it's the Indian Ocean dipole that causing this Indonesian swell anomaly and the droughts and fires in Oz.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I am getting skunked for sure black duck. From all reports and from watching endless vids, this wet season was the best of the decade. But it all went to pieces a few days before I arrived. To add to that I was riding new boards and my surfing skills seemed to have deserted me. Black depression was ...

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Nusa Dual was just OK yesterday.
I road back in heavy rain, no problem, I was in boardies and a wetshirt anyway.
Today is actually offshore, but the swell is tiny. Last year it was well overhead or bigger a lot of the time.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
I went out at the peak yesterday. It was pretty bad when I checked it, but by the time I'd got my board and walked down it was worse. What-the-heck, I paddled out anyway for some exercise. Didn't catch a wave, apart from proning in on some whitewater. It stayed choppy, small and onshore all day. Now...

It is a bit of a worry swvic. Maybe this is some sort of younger generational revenge on the boomers.

Re: Where did you surf today ?
There doesn't seem to be much awareness of Covid 19 in Bali, or on the plane over. The number of Chinese tourists in Bali is normally about the same as the number of Australians, but there almost none now so that's had a huge impact. I read that Bali does not have the capability to test for the viru...

Re: Where did you surf today ?
Walked and paddled up to Lurches early yesterday morning. Chest high, irregular waves, calm and no-one out. Nice conditions though, the water was a warm bath, very light sprinkling rain, a few sunshowers, a dugong cruised by, a few fishermen in their usual brightly coloured boats. After an hour so a...

Re: The Tulla Tub
Same if you go on a boat trip or a land camp to some exotic destination. The cook is a 25 year old frother from the gold coast, the owner or skipper only started the whole thing so they can surf all the time, the crew are often all die hard surfers that took the job on so they can score waves for f...

Yesterday I messaged the Losmen where I stay, a driver to pick me up from the airport and another to rent a bike from and they all replied within a minute or two.

I'm going to Bali for a month next Monday, it will be interesting to see what effect Covid 19 has on the crowds. There was a pretty dramatic drop in the number of tourists in Chiang Mai when we were there for the last month.
It could be the best season in Bali, crowd wise, for decades
