Hi I can't believe it's already been over a month since I ran away to Indonesia to surf. I started off in Canggu, Bali, but I've mostly been in Lombok. My favorite place on earth. Learning to drive a scooter, making friends and spending so much time at the beach and surfing. Drone footage by Eddie at OCEANDRIFT in Kuta Lombok (@oceandrift_ on instagram).

    Thanks for sharing the days when things aren't going so well. Very authentic. I recall as a teenager I saved up, bought my first board, saved again and got it refurbished. It was looking lovely. I waxed it and stood it on it's round pin tail against a wall. A couple of minutes later it fell over sideways and caught the edge of a slate window cill as it fell. Big gouge in my new lovely looking rails and a piece out of the nose when it hit the concrete floor. All very frustrating. You're in Indonesia though. Only been once so far but loved it. Just being there was great, the people seem to be determined to have a great day and they seemed to want that for me too. It got infectious and I just felt better every day. This was even after being gouged for too much money in an airport taxi and at a police stop when out on a scooter. The family I was staying with seemed genuinely upset when I told them about the police stop. I'll try and buy some merch, least I can do after all the travel advice you've shared. Hopefully they ship abroad from the States. Cheers

    These productions are really very good and that's coming from a locked down reserved Brit - ha ha!! What has stuck with me from this piece is the skill level required to ride thigh height. or less. I have a little experience sailing and racing and some of the best people are the ones good in light airs. So many questions. Is that your go to board? Do you travel with it and if so how? I've had airlines turn me away recently with a seven foot board in a travel bag.

    • @saltynat
      @saltynat 3 месяца назад

      Hey thank you, that means a lot to to me! I do think little waves are actually harder than bigger ones sometimes. There are also more little waves that go unridden because everyone is waiting for the bigger ones! More waves more fun! I have been mostly surfing a 9' 4" Walks on Water model from Almond Surfboards, and I've traveled with it from California to Bali many times now. You do have to pack it right, with the right board bag, and pick the right airline to make sure they'll accept big boards. I have used mainly Singapore Airlines and Garuda and they've been very good with big boards.

I'm having doubts about my longboard for smaller clean surf. It's got some rocker and a pin tail. It's been really weird as I was looking at Lombok for a trip, thinking about somewhere with smaller clean surf when your video on it dropped. Must've been just serendipity. Anyway, thanks again.

And I needed like a liter of aloe but only had a small bottle. I wish I’d brought an extra fin as well. I also gave away all my medicines because so many people got sick and didn’t have meds. Also wish I’d had more self care stuff in general especially for skin and sunburn, exfoliation, moisturizing. I should’ve brought melatonin too!

      @saltynat 4 месяца назад

      Also for packing a longboard, I promise I will do a video but here is what I have figured out to do after 8+ flights with my log and lots of trial and error: 1. Obviously take out the fin, and put your board in a sock or daybag. 2. Wrap that in a roll of big bubble wrap, like you would an ace bandage. Add extra foam/padding around tail and nose if you can. 3. Put that in a big rolling coffin case. Ive only ever had one small ding happen this way. 7/8 times its worked perfectly. You do need to check with your airline on weight and length restrictions beforehand Ive had great luck with singapore air and garuda ✌🏽
