Canggu 18th March 09
Well I’ve arrived back in Bali so today the 18th March I was keen to get some surfing in and some photos. So far I have not been able to get any waves, but today I managed to get some photos. I borrowed a friends bike and headed up to Canggu as the wind was light.
When I arrived there was a few sitting on the A frame sandbar. Waves at the time were in the 2ft+ range. The tide was still to low but it was on the way in. As it started to cover the reef a few others had a go on the left. Having swum out down the middle of the beach I swam over to the left, but not much happenning. The only thing that I did manage to do is get myself in was the rip that that runs out between these two breaks. I successfully got dragged out to sea without to much hope of making back to the beach the way I came out. So the long swim around was what I had. It paid off though as I made my swim back around I noticed one lone surfer up at the river mouth.
I slowly sarted swimming up this way as I got closer I noticed a familiar style and realised it was Taj Burrow getting a few to himself before the next tour event at Bells. Anyway I stayed out and snapped a couple of shots before I thought I had better head in and get the bike back to its owner.
Its good to be back in Bali and hopefully I will get better with the housing. Its still a new aquisition and definetly will take some getting used too. But I will certainly be having fun working with it and getting some water angles.
Till next time,
Scott
