MORNING SURF UP-DATE **** Good morning reef riders and thanks for stopping in for the run down on todays surf and weather conditions here in Bali . Things are getting back to normal for me again so I was down checking out the waves at 6.30am , and wave height has made a solid jump overnight. So this morning there’s plenty of waves coming through on the Outer Reefs ranging between 3-5ft (up to double head high) The tide is still running in for a Full Moon High of 2.2mtrs @ 10.00am but the wind was coming outta the North and cross-shore @ 2-6knot . So when the Tradewind kicks in we should have some good surf going down from Kuta Reef all the way down to Uluwatu. Kuta Reef was picking up 2-3ft+ lines and there were a few surfers already out there on the dawny. But it was still looking a bit bumpy from the lack of off-shore wind. Middle Reef was smoking through set waves in the 5 foot class and there were also a few takers out there. Airport Left already had a few reef taxi’s parked in the channel but a touch smaller than KR, more like shoulder to head high .I’m just waiting for the wind to swing off-shore and then I’ll more than likely be heading south for Uluwatu with the Cannon XL2 video camera to see what’s cooking. Weather wise we’ve got a fair bit of cloud cover for starters but hopefully when the Tradewind kicks in we’ll see some blue sky. I also heard there’s a pretty big turn out of Pro surfers over at Lakey Peak at the moment with Irons, Burrows and a whole heap of other crew. So they should be enjoying plenty of waves over there today as well. Ok then hook in and get some work done and call by later this afternoon cause we’ll have some more Bali waves for ya’s ta check out. And don’t forget if your coming over here to Bali ya can always find Slim down at the “Dewi Sri” Live Seafood Restaurant on Jalan Kartika Plaza here in Tuban between the hours of 7.00 – 9.00pm any night of the week.
