  Can someone help? I’m a beginner / intermediate surfer. Surfed in bali before, 2 to 3 ft kuta reef, 2 to 3 ft ullluwatu, 4ft playgrounds. Am looking at traveling to bali and lombok. Can someone help me find good waves that would suit me, other than where I have been.

  Just got back from Bali… I would say I am intermediate level… Dreamland was fun, a bigger break at the main beach which is quite soft but looks fast (I just watched as it got up around 4pm and I was stuffed from the morning session… otherwise I would have gone out)… also there is a nice little right hander off to the side that breaks more regularly…

  Hey Corey,
  I recently got back from a boat trip to Lombok on XXXXXXXXXXX, we found surf for all levels and was very well looked after. A good crew and captain is the key for safe fun surfing in Lombok. There were a few guys on board who were beginner/ intermediate and went really well in fact there surfing got a lot better from riding good quality long waves every day. When it got big or a bit scarey they would sit in the channel and paddle in and grab in betweens and ride on forever. We met some guys in the line up who were biking all over the place, but i think the boat got us to the best waves and spots every day without any worries or hassel and very affordable, plus every one really looked out for each other. thats my advice, hope it helps.
  Cheers D

  The worst thing about Impossibles is all the “KOOKS” that sit on the inside , and paddle over the shoulder in front of a surfer already on the wave .

  This wave is too fast to be steering around “KOOKS ” , and when those IDIOTS make you go around them , you miss the section more times than not. Plus you also put yourself and that surfer in danger by doing so.

  Listen up “KOOKS” ….., If there is a guy taking off , or already surfing the wave , ” DO NOT ” under any circumstances , paddle in front of that surfer , in order to save your weak, sorry, nancyboy asses from being caught inside on the sets .

  It is YOUR DUTY to – ALWAYS paddle ” BEHIND ( to the rear of ) ” the surfer who is up and riding (or taking of )and do a duckdive behind him like a MAN , even if it means you get worked … Do this – and you will get respect .

  This IS and has ALWAYS been the rules for 40+ years , Obey or go home !!!!
  If thats too hard for you KOOK , then go back home to your MOMMA !!!!

  Davo, sounds like you had a relaxing time surfing at Impossibles. Let me know your address so I can mail you a box of tissues for you to wipe away your tears. Can I suggest also that you stop whinging so much and perhaps spend some more time in the water, improving your surfing. Then you might stop blaming others for your inability to make sections. You do make a somewhat valid point here, but I just have to shut you down here because you just sound like such a sissy

  ahh ha ha ha ha lol lol , jeez jezza you crack me up ha ha ha lol
  …, if your not part of the solution jezza – Then your part of the problem !!! ,
  It sounds like your a shoulder sitter jezza , who constantly gets in the way ,
  …, and as for shutting anyone down jezza , the only shutting down your actually capable of , is when you sit on the shoulder (like you do) and shut down the lip on people who are already up and riding , ie; when you blindly and cluelessly paddle for their waves without looking . Which is also another carinal SIN .
  BTW – Hows your Surf School lessons comming along Jezza ?

  Hey Dag’s Impossible’s is a “heaps long reef bro”…. wud you like a chup bro ?

  Some valid points from both sides; Davo, Jezz. I found when growing up at my local beaches it worked out roughly like this and seemed to work well. If you cant paddle out of a riders way stop paddling and get flogged and let the person ride. If riding and can’t go round a person paddling over the shoulder without putting yourself at risk of a flogging just ride over them.
  This does result in afew injuries but there is risk in all things and most people work it out real quick.

  Had a quick beer with a few mates down the road and thought I better put a clarfication up before i get derided for calling for blood on the Bukit.
  If it is 2″ at impossibles should you chill-out and try enjoy it?
  Similarly if it is 6″ should you be out?
  A bit of commonsence should be used at all times,
  Cheers

  Well said Gordo, but we all know your first comment is right on the money, that’s what it is. No real surfer with any brains would paddle in front of a surfer up and riding when one’s self is paddling out, simply because I’d rather be rolled by just the wave and not being run down like a road kill by a possible, out of control surf school graduate.
