Balancing between stability, maneuverability and glide, the smooth pintail and wide nose feels small on the wave and plenty stable while paddling. The deck is flattened out for better foot grip and the thin rails provide a slightly sharper feel. It's rocker line and increased V numbers in the back foot area combine to produce a board with extreme drive and speed, yet is loose and responsive. It's fun in marginal surf and goes very well in serious waves as well. Great flat water glide and more than anything, it really feels alive on a wave.

Sumba

Shangri la - The Search for Shambala.

The legend of this lost valley is one of the most ancient Tibetan myths, and one of the most striking myths of a sacred landscape, a landscape that inspires stories itself. Reflecting back to a trip to the outer islands of Indonesia, it's very easy to draw comparisons with such a concept, (and we were sworn to secrecy) for even though we just experienced it, it's surreal beauty, peace, utter perfection and detachment from the rest of the planet feels almost otherworldly.We then found ourselves drinking out of a coconut in the dining area with the wave peeling down the reef merely a stone's throw away. I thought I saw a Green iguana walking up the beach, I'm not sure, as my eyes were intoxicated by everything as. We found ourselves in an exquisite and ridiculously perfect surrounding.


The Sumba Foundation
Claude Graves and Sean Downs established the Sumba Foundation in 2001.

"We now are proud to be able to say that there are 20,000 people in our West Sumba area that are benefiting from our efforts. Many of them have water at their villages now, clinics they can walk to with the very best diagnosis on the island. We are also supporting 13 schools, malnutrition projects, organic farming projects and the bio-diesel. It is an on going story that is bringing great value back to the community in Sumba"
