The Bali Board Bonanza

Whose idea WAS this?? Shieldsy’s of course.

The veteran Board Test photog was sick of doing this the easy way. He wanted a challenge. And so it was written that we would take delivery of 26 of the best surfboards in Australia, chuck ’em in five Rip Curl mega board bags, and take this show on the road to Australia’s favourite surfing home away from home: BALI. Where the surf’s always pretty good, the wetsuits are unnecessary and you can always find a wave to yourself. At least for long enough to give this quiver the most sustained thrashing it’ll ever get...z

Thanks to Air Australia (for the transport), Creatures of Leisure (for the leggies and tail pads), Futures , 4Way , C-Drive , FCS , Powerbase , Soar (for the fins), Rip Curl (for the board bags), We couldn’t have done it without you!
