G-Land rained from the heavens this morning! After a reported month or so of only occasional light rain, it just bucketed down for a few hours today. Highly unusual for G-Land in July. So with the rain came variable winds that lasted all day. On the positive side the swell built all day. Beginning around 2-3ft in the morning, it was solid thick 4-5ft in the afternoon and grinding down the low tide Money Trees sections. However with that variable wind it made any barrel riding attempts dangerous and risky.
Not a lot of guests came in with good reports. Although there were still some stoked punters who got some great rides. I took a handful of guests down to Tigertracks late morning. 3 girls and a guy + me, we all had a fun time and got some nice 2-3ft hot dog rights. Perfect waves for the girls to feel at ease on, and still some great pockets for me Asher & I to whip some backhand combos.
Tomorrow should be real good presuming the trade winds blow…

G-Land didn’t look much at low tide first thing this morning but it lit up like a christmas tree and the whole reef was a fun two to three foot of crystal cylinders. Speedies was showing some form for a while and Money Trees had some nice long rides all the way through.
The crowd here is really good and everyone in G-Land was getting a fair share of waves. Everybody had big smiles on their faces and cheering each other with their Bintangs at the end of the day. The vibe is good and as I’m writing this at 9p.m most of the crowd have already gone to bed.
John and Dave have been taking some great photos, Dave has been sitting on his board with a water housing and John has been taking photos from the tower so they have bothe angles covered. People from the other camps in G-Land have been coming and checking out there photos here and walking away stoked with their shots.

G-Land was a fun 2-3 ft all day. It didn’t drop at all and there were still some good sets at sunset so I’m hoping it’s still around tomorrow.
We have alot of guests leaving tomorrow and so far not so many coming. The G-Land full moon party is on tonight and everyone is stoked on their week ready to have a beer.
Our boat driver Allan has left G-land to go back to Timor and help out his family. He will be missed after being here for 3 years.

G-Land looked like it was going to drop off off today but it just got a little inconsistent before low tide. It pulsed all arvo with the tide coming in and in the last 2 hours it was looking really good! Not used to seeing so many barrels being made here. The boys were disappearing inside of them and coming out after you thought they’d be gone.
The chopper was coming from Air Bali yesterday but they blew an oil hose and it was spraying all over the engine so they had to emergency land it and fix it. It got to G-Land this afternoon and they had to emergency land it today aswell. The drive shaft is blown so they have to drive into town and get it fixed again.
The energy is wild here after such good waves today here in G-Land. Everyone is stoked! As you would be on a paid for trip with good waves.

IT WAS A DAY NOT TO MISS if you were here at G-Land. Fortunately, all the guests got to surf. I didn’t once again. But… fortunate for me, I’m not bummed by it either… just truly stoked for the guests. They got that gem of a day…November 12th 2009 will be remembered by several.
I’ll have to trust the others about (more…)
