Sick section coming up good move to bail before that swell comes up on that section of reef big effort by photohog/surfer Brad Masters

you can now drive to this village by a back road that climbs through village gardens and rubber plantations to a car park area and then a  short walk up the stone steps into the court yard, walk through the village to get the view overlooking Lagundri Bay and Sorake Jamburae points to the west

Red has been surfing "The Point" as the surfing location of Pantai Sorake Lagundri Bay on Nias Island for years, Red  is happily know as "Jumbo"

Sometimes you win some times you loose, lucky its just water and not a car crash, talk about going through the wringer over the falls and through a washing machine ! 

Justin Bu'ulolo Nias local knows how to surf, growing up in front of a perfect right hand wave that breaks nearly all year round, you can learn some tricks from Justin, he will show you the best way out through the keyhole the line ups on the bowl and how to whack the lip pull in and cut back 

Phantom reef since the 2005 earthquake (Nias earthquake 28th March 2005) has been getting surfed more regular here Cale takes a big one, but a dodge swell angle pushes the section around to make it an impossible situation, Cale does the right thing and pulls in like a champ, better that straightening out and getting the full brunt of the wave on the head and a slam into the shallow reef. glad I was on the bank watch that!
