WE FOUND THE CRAZIEST WAVE IN INDONESIA!

[@emergesb]

In 2009, my then 12 year old and I spent 19 days camped out on the beach at Super Suck. In my 43 years of surfing, the 8 second barrel I got there still ranks as the best ride of my life.

[@travisamazingable]

no way "they found it"

[@jahkgdm]

Was there in 1994 and 95 by boat. Still top sessions of my life. That crowd now kills it!

[@SWP805]

@jahkgdm that's what I'm talking about 90's! Score decade

[@PaulK365]

Surfed that wave with Arby many years ago back when John managed the hotel.... Just me and Arby, 6ft and way way deeper barrels. No one would ever believe how deep. I only knew because I saw where John took off from, watching with his binoculars ftom the hotel patio.... The only thing about this wave that's not deep is the bottom

But gotta say love watching your channel bro. Living the life only a surfer knows this feeling.

[@Stopthegreed]

We use to do boat trips to supersuck every year in the 80s and 90s. Would never see other surfers. The wave is like a wave pool. Perfect but gnarly on the lower tide.

[@mitseraffej5812]

My first trip to Bali was in 1978, no local boys in the water and very few others. Unfortunately the shit boards of the time were too slow to make the sections. These days I’m old, damn near crippled and haven’t surfed in over a decade.

I'm still trying to figure out how you align with the brand Darcsport?? Seems a bit "bro weights" vibe. Is there a video out there talking about the loss of Quicksilver? Too soon for the wounds?

[@ADayWithDylan]

I was wondering the same thing, he’s been with them for a long time so he might just be trying to think of the best way to roll out a new sponsor?

[@lukemcculloughshow.-lk1xq]

Beautiful! Awesome edit !!

[@Mesa369]

Koa, how long did you have to wait before it was your turn to get a wave? I’m assuming the locals had priority.

[@TheTravelingTogetherJournal]

WOW! Where did that crowed come from? There was a hotel on the beach there when I went 15+ years ago, but nothing else around for miles. Stayed for a few swells and the biggest crowed we had was 8 guys out at once. Is there a bunch more places to stay now, or is there way more Bali boats stopping here?

[@fernvizc]

Thats a B- for that spot, some funky winds. When its on its the best left in the world and it will kill you. Remeber a bodyboarder lived in the hill all season waiting for it to break and would go on the sickest slabs. Stop the hate for Koa this is his living $$$.

Surfed it in 2005 with a crazy bunch from Victoria and South Australia. Lone Pom on the boat. Great fun and way fewer folks then this! May ten to twelve at the most. Great area, awesome wave! Enjoy!

[@nickortcoski6769]

If you can late off late over shallow reef and ride the foam ball you'll get waves for sure! Nice session boys!

Dingo's were domesticated dogs a long time ago but got wild again and are now an exotic but wild species in Australia with a similar lifestyle to wolves.

[@surfwriter8461]

Beautiful long tube rides. It seemed to get both bigger and glassier as there was less wind messing with the wave face. Some excellent footage in this as well. How did it go from three guys out to more like 30 guys in the water within a couple of hours or so? And where are all those guys from?

[@KenMcPeak]

Looks crowded!

[@johnhagan582]

I think these waves in Indonesia are way better to surf than Koa's favorite break (Telipoo) its practically a never-ending wave with perfect faces to do anything your heart desires .get barreled (sometimes multiple times on a single wave) tricks. catching air .on days like this you can have 45 sec plus rides .tell me how it gets any better to that ? Its safe no coral reefs 3 ft under the surface .take off drop in and carve up those endless faces for wat must seem like a mile .hone your skills the sky's the limits .i get Telipoo is a monster wave with a barrel that swallows a surfer up but 10 seconds and your done .and having to deal with getting killed on the reef just inches under the surface if you wipe wipe-out or go over the falls .sometimes even getting sucked up out of nowhere while in the barrel waiting to get out with the spit .a big wave rush without a doubt so i get it but stil a 10 sec ride tops with nothing to really do but get barreled and usually your out in front of the barrel most instances not way back deep like Pipe .you get deep in that barrel and 9 times out of 10 that wave will suck you up and take you to the top of the curled lip then pummeling you down on the reef .so IMO Indonesia 🇮🇩 is better and a much funner place to surf .again how to you beat a ride that feels like miles long

Supersuck is the best wave I've ever scored too. Looks can be deceiving though. Those first couple were way too low to surf. Scored it in 2009 with just 2 mates and a bodyboarder for a whole session 4ft and perfect. Nobody was there because Jamie was there the day before filming the first J.O.B movie so everyone went to Deserts. We fucking scored. 2009 I think it was.
