If you are looking for a winter escape to get some wind, sunshine, waves, great food and more fun than you had on your last bucks night then a winter trip to Bali could be just what the doctor ordered. On the surface Bali looks like a great holiday destination but it does have underlying problems which can ruin your trip. After spending a few weeks there each winter for the last three years, we thought we’d share what we have learnt so far.


Ben Wilson has just released a free online movie called Shades of Green.  This film is Ben's way of giving a little something back to the kitesurfing community.  Shades of Green has some epic footage of surf kiting with plenty of barrels!


John Omohundro (founder/owner Aviso boards) flew to Bali to join me for this year's Bali Kitesurf Wave camp and hand deliver the first 5'8 Celaritas out of the tool to me. This is the first day of surfing it and kiting it, the waves aren't epic, but fun enough to get me hooked on the board as it's super light, alive and if his theory of "it will last forever" is correct then potentially one the best constructed and feeling boards I have ridden.
