Heavy - Awesome but heavy wave, best around the slightly overhead size, surfed it several times this year, and 2 guy who surfed with me were pretty seroisly injured there. Impossible to judge from the beach, you need to paddle out to see whats really going on.

Way Jambu - What a wave. You have got to see it too believe it. 2-3 metres and lining up and it goes off 300 metres. WOW

- This wave is fickle.. gets swell but needs everything to be right.
Seems to line up better at lowtide but isnt really surfable if you dont make it.

I only saw it good twice in four months, even krui broke more often. but all the waves in south sumatra are fickle.

the wave - surfed it last month. good and long wave, probably the best wave there. a friend got his finger split open at that wave and got stitches, the medical place was only up the road. not hours like someone said.

- mental wave don't even think about it unless you very experienced! super hollow but very sharp shallow unforgiving reef hrs from any help, they don't call it sumatra pipe for nothing, way jambu is the name of the local village, nearest medical help hrs away so go prepared!!!!

Moody - this wave was different every time i surfed it. But every time was good. Best was on a mid size south swell on high tide. the end section was pumping. running off for about 150m. long walls doing turn after turn and a couple a barrels here and there. But when it was big and a south west swell and mid tide. it was crazy, Broke up the reef further. Big, fast barrels. But it would section off a fair bit. had to pick the right ones. it would break and different spots. where you would kick off the next one would be there right on your head as you paddeled back out.
