AFTERNOON SURF UP-DATE **** Time for the afternoon wrap on today’s surfing conditions. Well it’s been a funny old day today, first up it’s remained over cast and so hot and humid the sweat was pouring off me down at Uluwatu . That’s right, I made the motor bike ride down to the bukit arriving around 10.45am. Wave height was still making the double over head size on the bigger set waves on the Main Peak and up at Temple ’s . There were quite a few surfers in the water on both sections while the tide was still reasonably high. But not a lot of action was going down until the tide started to bottom out through mid afternoon. Then the Racetrack section started to produce the goods and lure some of the better surfers into the water. I was shooting Video today so these current images are simple frame grabs from the footage I shot. You’ll have to wait until later tonight to see the edited clips, but they will be worth the wait ! The boys from Home Base sms’d me from Keramas but said that it was all over up there with wave height down to waist to shoulder high at best. Ok then friends of Bali stay tuned cause there’s plenty of waves in transit to Bali . And we’ll be getting as close to the action as we can so ya’s can see just how good a surfing holiday is here in Bali . Drop in again tomorrow for more of the latest surf and weather info straight outta Bali . Catch ya then.
MORNING SURF UP-DATE **** Good morning to all you surfers and welcome back to your baliwaves.com surf and weather resource station. Well as usual I was down sussing out surfing conditions (6.30am) on the Outer Reefs here in Tuban and to me it doesn’t look like there’s been too much change in wave height out there between Kuta Reef and Airport Left . The wind was still calm at that time so when the Tradewind kicks in, in another hour or so, surfing conditions are only gunna get better. Wave height on Kuta Reef was coming through in the 2-3ft+ range and there were a couple of dawn patrollers in the water. Middle Reef was still breaking in the head to double head high range but with the tide running in for a solid 2.3mtr High set for 9.30am will be at it’s best later, on the run out tide. Airport left had head to head high plus waves breaking nicely, and with a still empty line-up, but that’ll change. The crew from Home Base reckon they had a ball around at Airport Right yesterday with plenty of waves for the total of 10 surfers who made the trip to the other side of the runway. With wave height in the head to head high plus class. This morning the boys have opted to see what’s happening up at Keramas , after hearing reports of perfect 6 foot right handers up there yesterday. Poor old Slim will be hitting the road as well, but in the opposite direction towards Uluwatu . Not with his quiver, but with the Cannon XL2 to score ya’s some video action from Ulu’s “ Main Peak ”. Weather wise so far this morning we’ve got some light cloud cover up high, but that’s not gunna stand a chance when the ESE Tradewind kicks in. Temperature wise we’ll be heading for another hot one with the mercury heading for the low 30’s on the Celsius scale.
