To say that this story has exploded would be an absolute understatement. It seems people have been surfing the river bore, known as the "Bono", for longer than thought, but it was the Rip Curl trip there with Tom Curren that has blown the spot wide open. My previous posts have been going crazy, with viewers not being able to get enough. Now, you can book your trip to this crazy wave.
A word of warning before you do though,
1) This is a river in third world Sumatra, very far from any decent medical facilities. The water is filthy, people on the Rip Curl trip got serious staff infections and there are 4m crocodiles in the river.
2) The operator does not have jet skis. They use small speed boats.
3) Malaria is around.
4) No Booze! heavy Muslim community.
Having said all that, if you are about surf exploration and adventure - this definately fits the bill. Maybe it is time to go explore.
