Downwinders , Legian to Cungu can be so good , you will find some great banks along the way , there is a little Warung at Cungu were you can have a few cold Bintangs while you wait for your $10 transport back to Legian. It's still hit and miss with the wind though , l believe the last week has been great.

last week was on ,the 8 days i was there the wind was identical every day 6am -glassoff 8am off shore 8kns ,10 am 12kn s cross off 11 30 -2 30 cross 18-20kns, 3 30 -430 cross off 12- 18 , 5 30 -730 off shore 5-12 kns , so mutch for bali being a light wind destination i was fully lit on 12mt rally wishing i had a smaller kite, down winder would have been sick to caangu but i was on my own so didnt venture far ,the chicks at that warung at chaangu are loose as my mates had a bit of fun with them while i was kiting the give us a few free stubie holders for our bintangs and paid out on us whitch made us feel at home
