Surfing Waves

So any of you Bali inhabitants know if Keramas is pumping and the Komune Bali Pro is running?

Looks like it's on hold.

Thursday & Friday look good. Wind is all wrong for Keramas at the moment but those days the swell is in and the on shores are really light those days.

Yeah I am not sure about contests that aren't at least 3000 points. The web guys for WSL don't update stuff well for them. So I was looking for alternative sources. Long ago when I first started posting here I would find contests online and post them here but these days it's all on WSL usually except they don't update the lesser contests well. If this was a higher rated contest they would have said it was canceled for the day.

Ill let you know if i hear anything but communication is not a strong suit here

It could be they are running a trials contest to fill a few more spots in the main contest

I work on the same coast as Keramas; it's just up the coast about 10km. Seas are large but it's really messy, strong on shores and it is all blown out, crumbling and lots of whitewater. No one out on the break in front of where I work even though it's 10-12ft faces.

Just talked with a friend; he was up at Keramas today and he said the contest was on..........he said it was pumping!

They ran the trials and started the main contest. Looks like they won't be broadcasting it. Too bad. There will be some really good surfers in this contest including Taj Burrows, Joel Parkinson and Bruce Irons and a bunch of other up and coming surfers not to mention I am sure some Indonesian surfers that are probably fantastic at their home break. I love watching the Padang Padang contest that isn't WSL sponsored and somehow it gets broadcast. I guess the political climate in Bali isn't suited to big money companies sponsoring contests.

Here u are, doesn't look that bad..

That looks great. So much better than geger. Was out for three hours this morning; waves are soooo good this week!

Here is a video from the expression session http://www.worldsurfleague.com/posts/201689/2016-komune-bali-pro-expression-session

Apparently they will start televising the Komune Bali pro at the WSL site http://www.worldsurfleague.com/events/2016/mqs/1427/komune-bali-pro/live

The waves are awesome

Congratulations to Taj Burrow for winning again
