Yoyos - Surfed yoyos around 8 ft was pumping, perfect swell direction, one of the best surfs i've ever had. Fun but heavy at that size, watch out for the clean up sets.

Get to sumbawa - Hello there!
I'm going to bali in the final july, and I was wondering what's the best way to go to sumbawa and the cheapest. Cheers from Portugal.
