Intermediate surf guiding at Padang Padang ★★★★★
With small conditions in Bali at the moment, swell magnet Uluwatu is the only show in town. The tide was right for a leisurely 9am start, perfect Sunday fun day surfing. With low winds and still very little crowd density here in Uluwatu, Surf coach Koki got our intermediate standard guest A into some of the best waves and the guest are so happy and enjoy the surf this morning at Uluwatu Beach
This morning we went to bingin, a mechanical left hander, and one of the best surf breaks in the world. Perfect size for bingin and very consistent waves. Pandemic crowds – just a handful of tourists were surfing his morning, while we had bingin legend Richie to help us. Bingin is perfectly suited for advanced/intermediate+ surfers, wanting to build confidence on a fast barrelling reef break.
Perfect size at impossibles this morning, if you didn’t mind taking the bigger sets on the head! Just a handful of guys out and some leg achingly long rides to be had. As always with impossibles, wave selection and positioning is key. Many close outs, but you only need to get a couple of long rides to have an excellent session. Swell is a touch smaller than yesterday but there were 10 wave sets and needed to be careful not to get swept inside.
When condition 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 improves 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!
Swell is pumping here today and barrels galore at Padang Padang, the premium barreling wave, also known as the Balinese pipeline. Just 10 people out is incredible for this wave as normally packed with local and traveling surfers. Very very consistent waves today and more than enough barrels for everyone.
