The Yank is gone! - Just want to drop a quick reply about South Sumatra... there has already been a lot of info given and most of it is true, but to keep everyone up to speed... Andy the Yank is gone, gone, gone. As Dave Alton stated below, Karang Nyimbor Hotel now has a new owner and agent, As those that have already stay there know, it is one of the best places to stay on Unjung Bocur Point. Check it out
www.southsumatrasurf.com
and send an email if you want any more info. Longest left in front of the Hotel and other waves in the area if it feels too big... it is a beautiful part of the world with friendly locals; well worth a look!

Bodyboard in Krui area - Well, I plan to go to Krui area in late june and july but i am afraid of comments about the quality of waves. For some chaps, it's excellent, for others, it's better to surf in other places in Indonesia. I do bodyboard and I am seeking hollow waves, 6 feets and over. It would be great if anyone of you could give me some good advice. Maybe is it better to stay in G-Land (never been there) or Sumbawa (i went there in year 2001, and got plenty of swell)?
