E-Bay

Main Page South Sumatra Wavepark Mentawai Bali Surfing Photos

Tom, Jimmy and Dave surfed E-bay the afternoon the swell peaked. They got some unreal waves. As usual Tom got the best ones. Jimmy used up a few more lives, somehow managing to pull off way too late and avoid getting sucked over the falls. Not a good place to get sucked over as the reef goes dry on the inside. Dave got pretty lucky too, he got swept in over the reef but managed to escape with only a few scrapes on him and his board.

This wave of Tom's was the wave of the trip. (7 shot sequence)

Jimmy got some good waves out at E-bay and somehow managed to avoid the reef

Even though he was on a boogie board Jimmy earnt some respect out here

Jimmy riding through to the inside section

Jimmy used up a few lives getting out of these waves so late. Don't know how he managed to get out without getting sucked back.

Jimmy realizing it's time to get off this wave

Dave charged pretty hard up in the Mentawais, going on almost anything that came his way

The reef that was waiting to tear Jimmy apart if he pushed it any further.

Dave got pounded out here and got swept in over the reef losing his bootie in the process.

He took more than his share of beatings but got some good waves in the process.

He found it on the way back out over the reef, but not before losing a bit of flesh.
