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!!!!
