Indonesia - New Wave

Earlier in the year we traveled to South Sumatra in Indonesia for a QS event, after not progressing we stayed and found some unbelievably fun waves to surf.
Here's a few minutes of some of the better surfs we had on the trip. Good fun surfing with some very talented surfers from Aus and a massive thanks to my good mate Owen Milne behind the camera filming us all surf.
Huge thanks to Dean Fergus @ Secret Sumatra Resort for getting us into some world class waves.

Solid Grom Film intended for high levels of froth,. well done boys !

[@sheldonsimkus]

Thanks mate, the groms are good.

Good to see parts of Indo that haven't had a hotel built on them. Something about the subspecies Ozigromm being released in foreign tropical environments reminds us all of our past origins. God help us if they ever reach plague proportions. Luckily though, they do tend to settle down when they breed. Great surfing and an entertaining moving picture show. KUTGW

[@sheldonsimkus]

I agree, some special parts of the world still out there. Thanks, glad you liked it.

Jennys, well know if you are in the Krui area

[@wavespoiler]

but hey, they claim it as "new wave" and let that guilt-free monetisation come

[@sheldonsimkus]

Yep, couple Jenny’s waves in there

[@moikiemcsgandmore6472]

what a fucking master piece

[@lukerips1]

In the old days not many took the ride round to Jenny's.

[@form2644]

Less paid camera time for korbs. He gets infront of the camera enough wearing his ripcurl bikinis

[@peterleuchars9788]

that was seck!!

[@awelldressedape3419]

looks like Mandiri

[@sheldonsimkus]

First session is Mandiri!

[@jeffg4686]

scored.
as far as the surfing, it's good, but too modern.
Gotta go back and watch the old flicks.
Overturns and spinny things are overrated.
Layback cutties are overrated too. go for the roundhouse
Always go for the power turns.
watch the 80s flicks
Also, you gotta lose the pause turn at the top when dropping in - can't remember what you guys call that - that one definitely came from Slater. It's a generation thing.

[@sheldonsimkus]

That Slater guy rips, he seems to have done pretty good in his career!
