Alright then and thanks again for tuning into the original Bali surf report website. As I promised last report here are some images from Keramas cranking on the 30th with only a handful of surfers in the water. I do have to say that Keramas was breaking hard and heavy and definitely not a learner surfer type of wave.
Yesterday the 31st and I knew wave height was going to be pretty small. After sussing out the live Uluwatu Cam on Surfline it was obvious wave height was only just in the 2-3ft class and at least a 100 surfers in the water by 9.00am. So it was a no brainer to call a lay day. But it wasn’t a problem at all because we had bigger and better options for later in the afternoon. It had been 2yrs since we last had the RipCurl Padang Padang Cup and we were not going to miss out on the opening ceremony spectacular. So that’s where we spent our Sunday afternoon.
It was great to catch up with old friends and make new some new ones at the same time. There was huge turn out from the public and Bali surfing community with everyone so stoked that things were starting to return to a kind of normal again. The sun stayed out and it was a warm afternoon on Padang Padang beach. Luckily we had plenty of “thirst quenching” icy cold beers courtesy of one of the event sponsors “Island Brewing“. The 16 surfers for the event, 8 international and 8 Trial event surfers were all in good positive spirit and psyched up to surf some perfect Padang Padang waves when the main event goes down.
I’ll also throw a quick photo gallery from yesterday up later this afternoon if I get enough time.
Right now the event is on High alert for a possible start on the 4th of August with a good looking SSW swell in transit to Bali. So stay tuned,
Today the 1st of August and we have seen a bump in wave height and our 7.00am surf check on the Outer Reefs of Tuban was showing 3-5ft wave breaking between Kuta reef and Airport Left. The tide was just starting to run in at the time and the wind was light and variable.
Outside right now weather wise here in South Kuta we have a mostly blue sky and temperature is on 27C, Humidity is at 81%. Wind direction is now out of the East at 10-12knot.
Tomorrow’s Surf Forecast is looking positive with more waves around the island, slowly tapering off through the course of the day. Possible early morning light variable wind before the ESE-SE Trade wind kicks in mid morning.
Yesterday I also spent a few hrs putting a 6min+ video of highlights from the RipCurl Padang Padang Cup trials. I have loaded here on the baliwaves.com and I also tried to load it onto our facebook page but it must have been to long / heavy to appear in our regular news feed. So check it out if you have a spare 6mins and 23secs.
Ok thanks again crew for all your support and stay tuned for more news and views as it happening here on the No.1 tropical surfing holiday destination of Bali.

Hey Slim
This is Jon. Love the few pics of me you put up from Keramas. You don’t happen to have the barrel as a sequence do you? It was a screamer and I’d love to see it
