I'm off to Lombok on Friday, can't wait

Got a bit of a first world problem though

Wondering if I should pack my 6'2" and 6'5".... or my fat quad fish/hybrid and the 6'5".

Have looked through previous threads too, so thanks guys for the advice that's already been put on SB.

unless you plan to seek out a few novelty/small waves forget the fish imo and take your 6'2

All of em or any of them would fit the bill. Check the swell graphs before you pack. Most of the waves are pretty cruizy and your fish or 6'2 would cover but if you wanna charge 10ft Deserts leave ya fish take your 6'5 as back up

You can take em but check who you fly with about sizes you can take. If you're flying to Lombok again check who you are going with...."board fees-TAX" can be more than the airfare!!! Garuda good, lion and other cheapies be ware

Cheers for that. Yeah flying Garuda so no probs there.

Have decided to leave the fish. Not gonna be charging 10ft deserts tho. Too full on a wave for my gumby antics!

Hey Nutso

Last 3 times there I have taken a 6.0 CI Pod and a 6"6 Dahlberg Pin.

Mostly rode the Pod, except for the days over 6 foot.

Those boards covered all surf on the South coast. You may need a slightly bigger board for Mawi
if it gets real big and you've got big nads!
