Padang Padang Cup
Was stoked to get one of the best seats in the house with Jonni sitting in the channel at Padang watching the pros come screaming through the barrel into the inside. Fantastic day and huge thanks to Jonni from the Rip Curl School of Surf for making it happen.
Cruise Control
Tugu's rolling left and right peaks are perfect for cruising down the line on a stand up. There's also a few shifty outside waves with long open faces in the area that none of the surfers bother with. Thanks to Endoman for the photos.
No Name
Surfed a few new spots this year, a friend put me onto this sweet peak which doesn't get much of a crowd on it.
Going Big In Bali
Pumping swell in Bali over the last couple of weeks with good head high waves and a few days seeing double to triple overhead conditions. Broken boards, snapped leashes and bruised egos were the order of the day. Got buried deep and severely flogged on the clean up sets. Pete Cox was again the stand out, paddling into the biggest meanest bomb sets of the day. Awesome waves and a great learning experience. Thank you to Atsushi Endo for the photos.
Starboard 'Astro' Inflatable SUP
Take your SUP anywhere, packs up into a wet bag complete with pump, it also surfs surprising good. Big thank you to Margareta Engstrom for the photos.
Gow Surf Racks
Mr. Gow's surf racks, fits onto any motorbike in two minutes, solidly constructed, holds shortboards, longboards and SUP's and will even make your sweet ride look cooler! If you need to rent a set whilst you're in Khao Lak or if you want a set of your own, get in contact.
Learn To Surf Khao Lak
Fun morning down on the beach with Patrick and Joe, two of the local surf grommets. They tested Starboard's new wide body surf school board and they both got to their feet riding the foam. Big thanks to our instructor Mark and well done boys!
