20/20s
Monday, October 19th, 2009
Change over of guests this morning (40 guests in the camp now) and I had a good lesson in patience with them. Impressively, the forecast materialized enough to make me want to run for my board…but I needed just a little patience. 8 foot @ 16 seconds…211 degrees…offshore by 10.
During my beachfront part of the tour, what I was watching (more…)

G-Land Surf was more solid than I expected when I walked down in the morning to check it, the bommy was breaking and a perfect trade was blowing, low tide, nobody out (this was 7:30am) and 6ft double up sets cracking off the Ledge into Money Trees! If I was out of bed earlier I could have been a bit more on to that.
Anyway, after my hearty G-Land Bobby’s Surf Camp (more…)

G-Land Surf was still pretty solid today. 6ft sets coming through out the front, side-onshore in the morning and glassing off in the afternoon. A lot of fast sections through Money Trees and without a good trade it wasn’t all that great. Not alot of good reports from today.

G-Land was huge today!! 8-10ft+ sets washing through, with an ugly sideshore wind all day long. Nobody surfed out the front at the main break, but many G-Land Bobby’s Surf Camp guests went down and surfed 3-4ft 20/20’s, and had plenty of fun.
From numerous reports, sounds like most of Indonesia (more…)

For the third day straight not one person paddled out the main G-Land break. 20/20’s was surfed all through the day, with 2-4ft sets breaking better than yesterday along the short reef break. A few people got some reported fun ones at Chickens also.
G-Land Surf still had big hairy bombie (more…)

Once again G-Land was humungous and unsurfable. Everybody that surfed was either at 20/20’s or Chickens. 20/20s had well overhead waves, and it was kinda too big for it, a bit fat, but fun enough. The trades blew nicely offshore all day.
G-Land Surf was a 13ft @ 18sec (more…)

Victory at Sea!! Was one comment I heard from a guest this morning and it was appropriate for the G-Land Surf… maxing 12-15ft sets on the outter bombies were creating one helluva big current through the line-up, and big lumps coming through not even wanting to barrel or peel nicely. Ugly bumps and sections flopping all over the place. Although a stiff trade blew all day, it didn’t help much in this big macking west swell with a neep tide.

G-Land provided me with a really good sleep last night, waking up after 8am, I walked to the beach and holy sh*t its perfect offshore already, not one person out, and 5-6ft! If I had have woken up earlier I would have been out even earlier. But anyway after some breakfast and warm-ups, I was out by 10:30am, and for a good hour there was no more than 10 of us sharing some sick as waves. Sets were solid 6ft, sometimes 8ft, and some nice clean walls and barrels to be had! By 12 there were maybe 40 or 50 guys on the Tree and I was off it, so I simply paddled in for lunch.
G-Land Surf just got bigger through the afternoon, and (more…)

G-Land still had macking sets this morning, but we could see this morning that it was a little tamer. Solid 6-8ft sets were through the day, with the odd 10ft set sneaking its way in as well!
I had a surf at 20/20’s at lunch time on the low tide, (more…)

G-Land had a thick mist over the line-up for the first few hours of the morning, and while it sounded big and loud, I could not quite tell. Once the fog lifted mid morning I realised it was perhaps the biggest swell I’ve seen here since 2007! Too big for here today really. It was washing through, the ocean was moving sideways across the reef, huge swells unloading on the bombie. I heard the Rip Curl Padang Padang International Invite comp ran today in 6-8ft pumping waves. Jamie O’Brien won.
