I just got back from a weekend trip to a place called Tsoi Lik in New Ireland province, Papua New Guinea. It has some pretty amazing water there. We got really good waves too but unfortunately not many pictures of that because my photographer was too busy reading a book, walking on the beach etc... oh well

I took two boards; Starboard 9'8 Element and the 10'5 Drive.

It was a bit flat and fat waves when I got there on thursday so I mainly surfed the drive but Monday morning was a bit more size and speed and good for the 9'8

Cool shot Lobes. Looks like a magical spot, any villages near you or was it pretty much just you guys?

PS you look a bit sunburnt in the first shot or it could be the camera.

EDIT
Just realised might not be you

So close yet so far, I'm spending every second week in Moresby at the moment but havent found the time to travel to the north.

Hmmm might have to see what the schedule can fit it in, how did you go getting there etc?

Zimbo yeah the first shot isn't me. He's a pom that's why he's so pink. There was a small fishing settlement near us but the nearest proper village was a boat trip away.

Aus301 we flew from moresby to kavieng about 2 hrs then tsoi lik is about another 1.5 hrs by boat. It's worth getting at least to kavieng if you have a chance.
