The kite repairer name is Kadek owner of Bali Kitesurfing School.
He does all repair of kites in Bali and he is quite good at it!
Bye Jankie
he he he, yeah Mrs P stuffed that one... but its not as bad as a certain Costa Rican parking his kite on the shipwreck... ... from downwind!, now that was funny!
and yeah, big ups to Kadek for getting it off, and the quick repair
Aaahhh... Stop it! More swell comin mon too eh??? Good to hear yr havin a blast mate. How about some photos??? Would have loved to see it earlier this week! Work sux!
Don't worry about the wind, there is always Bintang.
Whatever you do....
Don't let Jankie take photo's of you with his massive, Bright, Brick phone!!!
He will morph them and post them on FailBook..
Bloody Bastewrd
Windy enough for my 10m bws and a surfboard and im not at Sanur beach search and you will find but had to paddle out and surf it yesterday arvo when the the wind dropped off 300m paddle out = about a 300m ride and theres waves again today
All this talk,, has anyone got some pics to post of a good day so we can see what the place looks like ??
^^^ not of the surf, but heres my young fella on the flatwater...
and RFW, i hate ya! havnt you got a job or something you need to go home to???
note the large kite eating ship in the background...
... yeah, thats the ship that got our Costa Rican mate with the Core kite, here is a pic of him smiling his arse off 'cause he didn't get any damage,,,,
The other couple of pics are near the boat its self, in the surf area around the boat and one of the tower that got the missus kite all bent out 'o shape.
As you can see from Tone cool pic (go Pivot), it shows the big flat water area, and at the boat is the edge of the reef where the deep deep blue water meets the really really shalow reef. We didn't have any big swell to speak of when the wind came up, but ironically, the day we got there the waves looked as high as the deck of the ship but with no wind to speak of. I loved it and my crook leg loved it too!
cheers,
Robbie
Hey Puetz, we've met over there!
This are absolutely great photos! Did u go more than once around the reef? Like you said, it's BIG over there.
I remember this guy with the helmet...

Yes Ian got heaps more days
AHhhhhhhhh. Where you launching on the other side of the river or just doing a lazy up winder
Deano,
you sent me a request to use Robbie's pic's, please send request to Puetz, pretty sure it will be ok.
Been here 11 days , 3 days on the 17 Argo with a surf board 10 knots but nice easy kite , 1 days 18 knots , last Sunday from memory , on the 12 rally with a 6,2, I'm 87 kg.
Wind is coming back when we leave tomorrow , will be good for 6 days by the look of it.
One thing to note if you come here , have a look at tide times they completely change where and when you kite. Jankee has been very helpful , great set of guys here up and down the resorts
Been out the back on the surf one day, very nice kiting .
When it's on this place is decent , cheap , great people , great kiting but please bring a 16m others you may stay dry for a week .
I've kiting about 12 countries and for the mix of everything including having the family with me this has been a great trip, come here for a break as well as kiting as the wind is far from strong and not predictable , you may get it you may not, if you do , it's fantastic .
Cheers
Out for 4 hours at Canggu Beach today with 6' 1" Kontact and 11m crossbow
Waves good, some double overhead.
Wind around 16-18 knots, reasonably constant.
Definitely worth the trip.
Easterly works OK, cross off - can be a bit light in at the impact zone sometimes, normally when something big is coming through but all good.
Been out for the last couple of days again, it was lighter today and am told by some of the locals that there won't be anything tomorrow.
Apparently it can be hit and miss, it seems that the wind gods were smiling on me as my trip ends tomorrow
Good one swingster I told you the 11 would do (but I wasn't really that confident )
glad you got amongst it.
