bali is a rubbish bin..

Spend your money at home. Or in support the tourism industry in NZ or Japan where they really need it.

Trophy pub also has great priced meals and pretty good clean basic accommodation with private a courtyard at a bargain rate and a 2 minute walk to the beach.

RPM hates Bali, but he has issues with a number of things.... Everyone else seems to love it. Given that he spent so much time working there, kinda makes you wonder? just got back from 3 weeks, awesome as usual, mostly 14 m, some 12, and even occasional 10... (100kg). Will be plenty of local and tourist crew there to hang with, and a number of different places to kite around Sanur. Lots of other options if you have time to adventure forth... Have fun!

Just got back from a week there. Only took a Zephyr and had a blast. Waves and wind direction are best at Sanur and Janke will help you out with whatever you need.

rfw, yep, was good this year, you should be having a good day today i reckon... one way or another,

rip it up dude!

mc, yeah, mostly sanur, but also some other places up north. if you want some waves around sanur, try serangan, blue reef or hyatt (mid to high tide).
as mentioned jankie is the man, although the expat kiters at blue oasis (sanur beach hotel), are a good bunch of guys.
worth taking a twinnie as well, cos the flat water at low tide is awesome...

Puetz... it's only semi-local but i'm working on it

Still in Bali,
Balian was great, good swell. Put it on your must to do list.

Last 2 days in Sanur. Approx 20 kiters out today.
To onshore but had fun. A few head high near the ship wreck made the day.

I am heading to Bali next week. I have a Bandit iV 10m and was wondering if its worth the hasle of taking it if the wind isnt real strong there.
Or should I just try and hire something there.
If it does start to blow I will be gutted if I didnt take it.
