A Rare Kind Of Perfection - Padang Padang, 24 August 2019

  • Sometimes the rarity of something can add a sense of value to it - very true of a good day at Padang Padang.
    Not that this place needs any value adding.
    A relatively easy drop into a perfect pit is pretty much any surfers dream scenario, and there were plenty of those yesterday. The crowd wasn't even as bad as you'd expect for such ideal, barreling conditions.
    This hasn't been the biggest swell we've had, but it's hanging in like a champ. It's day three as I write this and there's still plenty of overhead action at the exposed breaks.
    The forecast is for a slight drop in size for tomorrow, so there should be waves all over the place 🤙

    Surf/surfing aside, this video is shot from a sensible distance so you really can see the setup. Too many videos are filmed too close to the action.

    Hey, guys at SOB, next time can you include a vid with a complete walkthrough of how to get to those stairs that are featured at 1:57? These look like a fairly new set of stairs, is the entrance to them on the Blue Heaven side of the bridge? Previously, the only way to the beach at Padang was through the narrow chasm in the cave - ultra crowded, rather inconvenient entrance. The wave doesn't look too crowded at all, by the way, especially keeping in mind the time of day when this was filmed

    • @surfersofbali
      @surfersofbali  5 років тому +1

      The entrance is down a narrow road on the other side of the bridge from Blue Heaven. But it's a fairly long walk to the channel from here if you want to surf Padang Padang. Not a bad option for Impossibles though.

    • @Dennis.Chekaldin
      @Dennis.Chekaldin 5 років тому

      ​@@surfersofbali So the way to get to those stairs is through the main old Padang stairs across the road from the parking lot (next to Suarga) via all of the taxi drivers and annoying street hagglers? If so, that's a downer... I wish every Bali beach had it's own tucked away cozy nice entrance like the relatively new road to Dreamland via El Cabron, where the parking is free of charge from cheap impostors and your experience of parking, getting prepared to get to the water and overall pre and apres surf experience is not tainted by undesirable encounters with various filthy characters. Hopefully, eventually all of the main beach entrances in the Bukit will get cleaned up like it got cleaned up in Berawa
