his French guy has visited Bali for 4 times. This time, unfortunately he only got 10 days to enjoy the sunshine in this mesmerizing island. Just during his holiday in Bali, he thinks that his daily activities are so amusing, starts with wake up early in the morning to surf some spots day by day. In addition, he likes Indonesia culture, food, friendliness, waves, weather and the girls as well. He has surfed Australia and Indonesia (Bali and Lombok), and he enjoyed it but he prefers surfing in a quiet spot.

emaja kelahiran 31 Maret 1997 bernama Lengkap I Komang Angga Bayu Pranata mengaku mengenal surfing semenjak ia duduk di bangku kelas tiga Sekolah Dasar (SD). “Nggak ada yang ngajarin aku main surfing, mainnya sama temen-temen aja” ungkap siswa SD 2 Lebih Gianyar Bali. Bisa kenal bayak orang adalah salah satu motivasi Angga terus menekuni dunia surfing. Remaja yang mengidolakan Kelly Stater dan Mick Fanning ini mengakui pernah mendapat bad experience juga saat main surfing. “Pernah kena karang waktu main di Keramas, waktu cari speed terus ada ombak besar..kena deh. Keblender and kaki keparut karang, udah resiko sih kalo jadi surfer” Angga kini duduk di bangku kelas enam SD, hobinya menonton acara TV Si Bolang dan Laptop si Unyil ini mengaku nggak ikut ekstra kurikuler ( ekskul) di sekolah, soalnya nggak ada ekskul surfing.Wahhh…bisa jadi masukan yang bagus buat sekolah-sekolah buat ngadain ekskul surfing. Menjadi surfer terkenal adalah cita-cita Angga surfer muda asal pantai Lebih ini.

I

Komang Angga Bayu Pranata was born on 31st March 1997 and he has been surfing since he was in year 3 at primary school. “Nobody taught me to surf, I just started surfing with my friends” he said. Angga is motivated to keep surfing so that he can meet lots of people. He idolizes Kelly Stater and Mick Fanning and has had a bad experience while surfing. “I hit the coral when I was surfing at Keramas, I was going fast and the waves were big… I wiped out and my legs were shredded by the reef, but that’s the risk of being a surfer” Angga is in year 6 now and he likes watching Si Bolang and Laptop si Unyil on TV but he doesn’t do extra curricular at school because they don’t have surfing extra curricular! Wah …some good advice for the schools would be to have extra curricular surfing. Angga’s ambition is to be a well known surfer.

One of the menu items is High Tea and there is a special Mystical High Tea every Sunday afternoon. At Rp.130k/ person it includes a tea leaf reading by Ann Sinclair.

K

epedulian terhadap masa depan pariwisata Bali menjadi motivasi bagi Presiden Indonesian Surf Life Saving Association ini untuk meningkatkan keamanan di pantai dan turut mengembangkan potensi surfing Bali.

Namun pada tahun 1966, saya melihat beberapa bule yang sangat atraktif di atas ombak menggunakan papan panjang seolah menaiki motor diatas air. Akhirnya saya berkenalan dengan mereka dan berteman sangat baik dengan salah satu dantaranya yaitu John Michael Boyum dari Hawaii. Dialah yang membuat saya terkagumkagum dengan penyelamatanya terhadap 4 orang dari keluarga Sumatera Motor Denpasar, meskipun salah satunya telah tak bernyawa. Dari dia pula untuk pertama kalinya saya mempelajari life saving. Setelah kedatangan John Michael Boyum tersebut, setiap bulannya mulai berdatangan bule-bule dan semakin banyak yang surfing di Kuta. Dan tahun 1971, para pemuda Kuta mulai mempelajari surfing dengan meminjam alat-alat dari wisatawan asing tersebut dan mengikis ketakutan akan mistisnya pantai Kuta. Karena kebiasaan para bule ini yang menitipkan surfboard kepada pemuda local ketika akan pulang ke negaranya. Peluang itulah yang dimanfaatkan pemuda kuta untuk terus berlatih surfing. Melihat potensi yang muncul dari para pemuda Kuta, Ketua umum KONI Bali dan Kanwil depdikbud yang menjabat waktu itu mengusulkan dibentuknya organisasi yang mengampu kegiatan surfing di Bali. Sehingga pada tahun 1973 lahir The surfing Club of Bali yang resmi berdiri atas persetujuan dan naungan langsung KONI daerah yang ketika itu diketuai oleh saya sendiri. Pendukung

Tell us how you got into the world of graphic design? Hm…basically I am an artist, and I went to art school. I went to Jogja for a year and went to design college there, and every night I had a side job teaching design to high school students…hehe not too bad.. So the whole time you were at school in Jogja you were also a teacher? Yeah…it’s funny, I wanted to study and instead I was teaching. I wasn’t just a teacher though, I also did some tattooing. Wow, a tattoo artist as well..? ok, so how did you get started at Surfer Girl? When I got back from Jogja, I applied at Surfer Girl, and I started as a junior graphic designer. Eventually I moved to the brand department. What’s interesting about working at Surfer Girl? It’s great here because it’s not just design but we also use our artwork. So we explore art and feel really valued. The social side is also solid and really homey. You work for a surf brand…do you surf? No… How come? Only really because I want to look after my skin, so when I get tattoos they will always look good Hahahahhahahahaha……. You really don’t have any tattoos? You’re a tattoo artist but you don’t have any tattoos??????? Hehehe….Because, just not yet.You

can respect tattoos without having them…same as you right?! Hehehe….right bro, so how can people get a look at your art? Check all my art work at www. buchtattoo.devianart.com Well…last word for Magic Wave Keep up the good support for the local scene, keep surfing and make the world better

yang merangakap sebagai pelatih asing telah ditunjuk yaitu Mr. John Michaek Boyum dari Hawaii. Tujuan berdirinya club ini adalah untuk mempermudah jalinan persahabatan dengan internasional dan mempercepat perkembangan surfing bali agar dapat diakui sebagai olah raga nasional yang antinya dapat mewakili bangasa Indonesia ke dunia Internasional. (bersambung…………)

In the April edition of Magic Wave we heard about the history of surfing in Bali from Steve Palmer. In this edition we continue the story from the perspective of I Gde Brata, President of the Indonesian Surf Life Saving Association.

C

oncern for the future of tourism in Bali motivated Pak Brata to improve the safety of the beach and help develop the potential for surfing in Bali. While enjoying the night atmosphere and the bright stars at his house, Pak Brata answered our questions about his memories of the beginning of the surfing culture in Bali. “Many tourists were pessimistic about the possibility of developing surfing in Bali, keeping in mind the strong religious basis of the society and its belief in the mystical world. I remember well peoples’ suspicions about Kuta Beach because many people drowned there and could not be saved. But in 1966 I saw some tourists looking really good on the waves, using a long board, like riding a bike on the water. I introduced myself to them and became good friends with them, one of them was John Michael Boyum from Hawaii. He shocked me by saving 4 people from the Sumatera Motor Denpasar family, although one of them couldn’t be revived. It

was from him that I first learned about life saving. After John Michael Boyum came, almost every month more tourists came to surf at Kuta. In 1971 the young boys in Kuta started to learn to surf with boards borrowed from the tourists and started to lose the fear and suspicion associated with the beach. Usually the tourists would leave their boards with some of the locals when they went home and that gave the Kuta locals the chance to keep practicing their surfing. Seeing the potential of the young Kuta surfers, the head of KONI Bali (sport dept) and Kanwil Depdikbud (Area office Education and Culture department) suggested that an organization be formed to support surfing activities in Bali. In 1973 the Surfing Club of Bali was started with the agreement of KONI and headed by me. John Michael Boyum offered support as foreign coach. The aim of the club was to form international relationships and speed up the development of surfing in Bali so that it could be recognized as a national sport and later Indonesia could be represented at an international level. (To be continued……….)

Watch out for Dengue Fever! We think it’s time to remind you about dengue fever… again. The tropics and the rainy season... One unique combination that reminds us of dengue fever. Indonesia is an endemic region of dengue fever. This disease can be found in almost every region and anytime of the year, with a higher incidence during rainy season, which is generally October to April (the highest incidence usually is during February and March), because it gives a better habitat for the vector, the mosquito, to breed. For information about the disease, the symptoms and others, go to our archive. In this article we’ll discuss more about mosquito bite prevention. DEET. This remains the gold standard of currently available mosquito and tick repellents. Comparison studies suggest that DEET preparations are the most effective insect repellants now available. Recommended concentration: •35 % or more for adults who are in high risk regions for prolonged periods •20% - 35% for most adults and children over 12 years old, provides complete protection for an average of 5 hours •10% or less for children ages 2 to 12, but some experts believe that these are safe even for infants over two months old. DEET has been used for more than 40 years and is safe for most children when used as directed. Remember! The effectiveness of DEET varies from individual to individual and depends on climate changes. For example, it can be washed off during swimming or by rain. High temperatures make it less effective. DEET, particularly in very high concentrations, can also dissolve plastics, including those used in glasses, watches and some synthetic clothing. DEET then should not be put on clothing. Overexposure to DEET at any age has produced toxic effects, including itching, rash and in severe cases, irritability, insomnia, and confusion. It should be noted, however, that it has been intensively studied for 40 years and

used in billions of applications. Only 50 such toxic reactions have been reported and most of them resolved without any consequences. When applying DEET, the following precautions should be taken: •Do not use on the face and apply only enough to cover exposed skin on other areas. •Do not over apply and do not use under clothing. •Do not apply over any cuts, wounds or irritated skin. •Parents or an adult should apply repellent to a child and not let the child apply it to him or herself. Parents or an adult should first put DEET on their own hands then apply it to the child. Avoid putting DEET not only near the child’s eyes and mouth, but also on the hands (since children frequently touch their faces). •Wash any treated skin after going back indoors. •If using a spray, apply DEET outdoors--never indoors. Spray repellents should not be applied inside or directly on anyone’s face. Other Insect Repellent Products •Soy-based Bite Blocker, is safe for infants and gives protection that averaged over an hour and a half. •Citronella - or mixed oil based products, protects for an average of 20 minutes or less. •Synthetic insect repellent IR3535, provides protection for 20 minutes to an hour. •Repellent containing eucalyptus, offers protection that averages 2 hours and is a good alternative, particularly for children. •Bayrepel, a piperidine derivative, mainly used in Europe, may prove to be very protective. •Bath oils, all wristbands (including those that contain DEET or emit sound), garlic and vitamin B1, are proved to offer very little protection or none at all. Permethrin. It is an insect repellent used as a spray for clothing and bed nets, which can repel insects for weeks when applied correctly. Electric vaporizing mats containing permethrin may be very helpful. A permethrin solution is also available for soaking items, but should never be applied to the skin. Side effects from direct exposure may include mild burning, stinging, itching and rash, but in general, this agent is very safe and its use may even reduce child mortality rates from malaria. Travelers allergic to chrysanthemum flowers or who are allergic to head-lice scabicides should

avoid using permethrin. Other Preventive Measures. Other preventive measures include: •Wearing trousers and long-sleeved shirts, particularly at dusk. One survey suggested that this measure may significantly reduce the incidence of mosquitoborn disease. •Sleeping only in screened areas. •Air-conditioning may reduce mosquito infiltration. Where air-conditioning is not available, fans may be helpful. Mosquitoes appear to be reluctant to fly in windy air. •Don’t wear perfumes. •Minimizing skin exposure after dusk. •Washing hair at least twice a week. •Burning citronella candles reduces the likelihood of bites. Indeed, burning any candle helps to some extent, perhaps because the generation of carbon dioxide diverts mosquitoes toward the flame. Smoke from burning certain plants, including ginger, beetle nut and coconut husks, have also reduced mosquito infiltration, but the irritating and toxic effects on the eyes and lungs may be considerable, such as the citrosa plant. To date, no evidence shows much benefit but such methods are not harmful.

For people living in Indonesia, the health department recommends to prevent mosquito breeding sites. Mosquitoes usually lay their eggs on still water. It is advised to: •Drain out water from desert coolers/window air coolers (when not in use), tanks, barrels, drums, buckets etc. •Remove all objects containing water (e.g. plant saucers etc.) from the house. •Collect and destroy discarded containers in which water collects e.g. bottles, plastic bags, tins, used tyres etc. •In case it is not possible to drain out various water collections or to fully cover them, use temephos, an insecticide, ( brand name Abate) 1 part per million according to the local guidelines to prevent larvae from developing into adults.

Pacitan Trip

ndonesia is a paradise for waves, where ever you go, except north, you got hips of wonderful spots in such a beautiful landscape, so natural... And it’’s so rich in culture ! After our trip last year to the Mentawai we where looking for a new adventure as good as Siberut and we found it on Java. Java is full of unknown spots. Our trip brought us to Pacitan and we are really glad now we were told about this place. Thanks Magic Waves... ahah... Pacitan is an amazing bay, surrounded by beautiful green mountains, and all around there are small bays, white sanded beaches, amazing waves, but you have to like adventure, it’s really difficult to get to some of this spots, some are about an hour from Pacitan center... After a week there we were brought to a spot about 2 hours from where we stayed, we had to walk down to the beach for an hour again but “waouh” we were instantly wordless to see the spot ! Therefor we are really thankful to all Pacitan’s locals, they really help us out there and showed us with pleasure there region, there favorite spots, without them we will certainly not had such a fantastic journey.

The 4 of us were looking for a old hawaiian style of trip : enjoy a wonderful strength of mother nature with our friends, share, appreciate each moments... In Pacitan we found all this ! Locals are 100% in this spirit that I thought was going to be quite difficult to find. I can’t stop surfers to go over there, in the contrary I will say “go, it’s magic !” but I really hope Pacitan is not going to be the next place for surf industries and that surfers are not going to bring over there all the tourists attractions that would destroy the landscape as it as on Bali or as it has started on the Mentawai. We enjoy a strength of mother nature, show your respect to her in return !

Indonesian Surfers Dede Suryana, Pepen Hendrik, and Made Awan Go Big at Garuda Indonesia Travel Scene Pro JPSA Comp in Keramas

1

4 April 2009, Gianyar-Bali, Indonesia: At the end of the fifth and final day of the Garuda Indonesia Travel Scene Pro Japan Professional Surfing Association contest at Keramas Beach on Sunday the 12th of April, three of Indonesia’s best pro surfers all finished with spots on the podium, surfing against some very strong Japanese competitors in superb wave conditions. Each year Bali plays host to a JPSA pro surf contest, this year named the Garuda Indonesia Travel Scene Pro, at the black sand beach of Keramas on the East Coast of Bali. After four days of mediocre wave conditions, the morning light revealed the refreshing sight of 3-4 foot roping barrels breaking over the ragged lava reef, giving the surfers a real chance to bust out their most radical tricks for the judges. Long barrels, huge gouging cutbacks, radical vertical maneuvers, and aerials punctuated the JPSA Men’s quarter, semi, and final heats. Indonesia’s Pepen Hendrik, the 2004 Indonesian Surfing Champion who at 32 years of age still surfs on both the ISC and the JPSA Tours, barreled and slashed his way into to a 3rd place finish against the much younger Japanese competition. After the Men’s and Women’s finals, a select group of 8 Indonesian surfers were invited to compete against their Japanese peers in what was called the “Bali-Japan Friendship Game”. Last year’s 2008 ISC Champion Dede Suryana from West Java headed up the group that included young rippers Garut Widiarta, Mustofa Jeksen and Raditya Rondi from Kuta, Robot Susiana and Putra Hermawan from Nusa Lembongan, and was rounded out by veterans Made Awan (Serangan) and Dedi Santoso (Kuta). There was many a brilliant display of competitive surfing during the hotly contested event, with the boys going all out for that top spot on the podium and to claim victory for the national pride of their country. Dede “Who’s your Dede” Suryana left no doubt in anybody’s mind that he wanted that top podium spot all to himself, busting out airs, tubes, and huge hacks to bring it all home in the final. Second and fourth spots when to the Japanese guys, while Made Awan did himself proud with a third place finish, getting in some air time of his own. The Sunday festivities concluded at the Istana Rama Hotel with the awards presentation and dinner around a big pool, which naturally resulted in a lot of empty Bintang’s and a lot of wet and stoked people having a great time!

Boat Trip to Sumbawa

I

t’s me, Komang BSP a.k.a. Grandong. At first, I was told by Kopi (MW Crew) about a boat trip from Bali to Lombok and Sumbawa. Kopi himself was contacted by Rocky Wave Huntter couple days before. At that time, Kopi couldn’t go for it, therefore I got this opportunity. Kopi checked the swell through the internet which said that the waves are big. But, it was wrong since I only found small waves, hehe… Ok,let’s start from 8 April. At 7 a.m., I started the trip from Wave office to Serangan. We went from Serangan to Lembongan by Wave Huntter’s ship. In one day, surfing was done there, but I only enjoyed the beauty of Lembongan and met some new people. The second day at 3 a.m., we went from Lembongan to Lombok. I woke up at 6 a.m. I only saw small waves, but when I looked at the view around me; the hill, mountain, and sea, the disappointment was gone. Finally, we arrived at Blongos, Lombok. The waves are good enough. After taking a little break, we directly went to YOYOS in Sumbawa.Yoyos has great waves but it was still in low tide, so I decided to take pictures from the beach. In the afternoon, we stayed in an island which name I didn’t know, haha... The next day we still had fun in the same place,Yoyos. After Yoyos’ waves were smaller, we continued the trip to Scar Reef Sumbawa. It turned out that the waves there were also small. Me and the trip group decided to spend a night there. So early in the morning, the ship captain took us to Eka’s in Sumbawa. Eka’s waves are fantastic. We could find 6-7 feet waves. Me and my friends were so satisfied to see it, while there were also some people who didn’t dare enough and decided not to surf. There were no more activities in the seventh day. We went back to L:embongan. A friend tried to go fishing for the last dinner. They got three big fishes. We made a barbeque party at Lembongan. It’s a wonderful trip for me, since not only I could make friends with those more or less 13 people I met on the ship, but also I was impressed by the surf points in Lombok and Sumbawa. And one thing for sure, I could enjoy the beautiful view, though I got stoned in the second day. Cheers!!! Thanks to Rocky Wave Huntter for the trip. Can’t wait for the next trip…

VOLCOM STONE’S GRILLFISH SURF SERIES BUKIT, BALANGAN BEACH, BALI

Sunday, 12th April 2009

T

he weather was really friendly at Volcom Stone’s Grillfish Surf Series that was held last Sunday on April 12th, as the clouds forming a nice barrier to the blasting Bukit sun. And the waves also couldn’t be more perfect - 2-3 feet high and just would not stop barraging. The most interesting to watch on the Under 14s category was little Tommy Sabri, who lead from the first heat with his snap and floater maneuvers. Too bad he didn’t get any waves at the finals, leaving I Kadek Koko Mitsua Antara as the winner. From early on it was a tight competition at the Under 17s finals between Agus Sumerta Yasa and Agus Sudiantara. But Agus Sumerta Yasa begun to be able to control the waves, and won the final heat with a significant point difference thanks to his smooth cutback and snap maneuvers. It was also intense at the Pro-Am division. I Kadek Arya Wiarta actually lead the score board and was about to snag the first place, but at the last minutes Mega Semadhi dropped a seriously big air and landed clean and perfect. This earned him high points and took him to victory. The prize presentation was held after the contestants enjoyed their free lunch and Volcom’s signature giveaway frenzy marked the end of the day.

Lucky Lakey Peak Groms Tear It Up at GromSearch 3 in Sumbawa

6

April 2009, Lakey Peak – Sumbawa: The Rip Curl GromSearch crew hopped over east of Bali to world famous Lakey Peak in Sumbawa for Gromsearch 3 over the weekend to check out if there were any hot groms around…and they had no problem finding lots of ‘em! Having already produced such well known groms as Rip Curl team riders Ony Anwar (2008 Coca-Cola ISC Junior Champion) and the notorious surfer /MC Dede Gun, and last year’s Rip Curl GromSearch Series winner Gazali Hamzah, Lakey Peak has shown itself to be a veritable hotbed of grom surfing in Indonesia. Sunday morning greeted the GromSearch crew and the amping Lakey groms with bright sunshine and a perfect 3-4 foot Lakey Peak lineup, with plenty of both lefts and rights on offer. The tide was slowly ebbing out, creating just the right conditions for a low tide early afternoon finish. These groms have to be some of the luckiest on the planet to be able to surf waves like this all the time! First up were the Under 14 groms battling it out in four 5-man heats for a place in the finals, starting at just after 9 am. Charging like there was a world championship at stake were Bomar Presetia,Yasin, Haeril Hu’u, and Ony Anwar’s little brother Andri Anwar. These little shredders put on quite a show and aggressively attacked each wave, putting together deep bottom turns with slashing off the tops, gouging roundhouse cutbacks, and airs. It was anybody’s guess in most of the heats as to who would come out on top, as the competition was so fierce, but in the low tide final Yasin put together a stellar performance to best the late charging Andri for the top spot. Andri seemed be set on going big from the starting horn, but failed to complete some aggressive maneuvers early on, buy then settled down to some solid surfing to get second place over third place Bomar Presetia, leaving Haeril Hu’u to round out the final. A special Micro Grom session (under 10 years of age) saw five 8-10 year old’s paddle out to take on, what must have seemed like monstrous Lakey Peak! They charged like little legends, leaving all the viewers with a smile and laugh. The Under 16 division may have had only six contestants, but they kept the judges busy non-stop all the way to the final. Rip Curl Team rider Muhlis (MJ) Jaffar made it clear that he wanted top spot on the podium and that ticket to Bali, going both left and right and executing big maneuvers in the critical parts of the wave to best Firman, who was virtually matching MJ point for point for most of the final but just came up a bit short at the horn. Both were super stoked to receive their Tickets to Bali, and all the finalists went home with Rip Curl Goody bags packed with prizes from Rip Curl and the GromSearch sponsors. “I am really impressed by these young guys surfing ability,” said Coca-Cola ISC Tour Head Judge Wayan Pica. “They are really charging, reading the waves and knowing which maneuvers to perform. It’s great to see such high performance and bravery in these young kids when surfing this challenging reef break,” he added. Before the judges and crew left the tower to head back for the games, giveaways, and trophy presentation, Event Manager Yudha called out for the Expression Session to begin. The boys were going big trying to impress the judges, but it was Gazeli Hamzah that got the Best Trick award for his 360 bunny hop, and Tahi won the Best Wave award for a long left hander with a stack of turns, finishing with a 360 on the inside. Trash collecting, musical chairs, quizzes, and just being there for the giveaways netted the attendees on the beach, so everybody went home with something! And so another epic GromSearch event came to a close with a happy bunch of people and a beautiful red sunset!

Thanks to the sponsors….. Fren, Skull Candy, Eat Sleep Surf (ESS), Light Surfboards,Yayasan Gelombang Udara Segar, Trax Magazine, Surf Time Magazine and the Coca-Cola Indonesian Surfing ChampionshipTour. The Rip Curl GromSearch Series 2009 is sanctioned by the Coca-Cola ISC (Indonesian Surfing Championship) Tour; so all contestants will receive ISC Junior Division points at each event. The Under 16 surfer with the most points at the end of the year will become the Indonesian Junior Champion of 2009. Results Under 16 Final 1. Muhlis Jaffar 2. Firman 3. Ornot 4. Silipester

Agus Frimanto Crowned Rusty Gromfest Series Champion Photos by Amin & Harry / Text by Thai

K

uta Beach, Bali (Sunday April 5th, 2009) - Agus Frimanto won the Rusty Gromfest Halfway surfing competition today, surpassing fellow Lembongan prodigy Putra Hermawan in the overall rankings, resulting in a dramatic conclusion to the three-stage Rusty Gromfest Series Bali, 2009. The series launched at Keramas in February, followed by an event at Pererenan in March, then culminated at ‘Halfway” Kuta Beach today in challenging conditions. Competitors were split into two age divisions - under 14 and under 16 - with Rusty’s team of pro surfers taking on scoring duties under the watchful eye of ISC judges. Over eighty grommets participated in each event. The contests were free to enter with complimentary lunch and goody bags for everyone. Fun games and product giveaways were held throughout the day to engage the hordes of spectators and beach-goers. Over the duration of the series the stand out surfers in the under 14 division have been Jeren (Canggu), Koko (Nusa Dua), Mansyur (Sumbawa), Blacky (Legian), and Ediana (Lembongan). The future of Indonesian surfing is in good hands with this lot, who all come from diverse backgrounds but have one thing in common: they absolutely rip! Today Jeren was in his element, winning each of his heats, and then claiming his maiden victory after going mental in the final. Ediana lost in the semis but still

clenched the overall series title after finishing runner-up at Keramas and winning Pererenan. In the under 16 division much of the attention has been focused on the Lembongan duo of Putra Hermawan and Agus Frimanto who have had consistent finals berths. Putra had built a commanding ratings lead following two consecutive victories in the first two events (Agus placed 2nd and 3rd) but the additional 25% points up for grabs at Halfway meant that Agus was mathematically still in the running to take the overall title. Today Putra and Agus met in the semi finals where Agus took it to the next level with a spectacular display of confident, critical surfing. He stomped a 360 air-reverse to take the heat and advance into the final alongside Ahmad Kamal while Putra fell victim to the flat, unresponsive ocean. This left the door wide open for Agus, who would need to finish second or better to take the series title. With so much at stake, Agus Frimanto put all the pressure aside and destroyed every wave he caught in the final, winning convincingly. He has been awarded a chance to compete against the best international junior surfers at the 14th annual Rusty Gromfest held at Lennox Head, Australia in July 2009. “I’m so happy to win the event and get the ticket to Australia” beamed Agus after the podium celebration. “I can’t wait to surf Lennox Head, Snapper Rocks and all the great waves there... but first it’s time to party!!!” The Rusty Gromfest Series Bali 2009, held in conjunction with the Coca-Cola ISC Junior Tour, has been a great success that was made possible by the generous support of the local communities at Keramas, Pererenan, and Kuta. Thanks also to our sponsors Creatures, Macbeth, Sabre, Wall’s, GUS, Surftime, and Magic Wave. See you next year!!

Finally, my heartfelt thanks to our loyal event sponsors Billabong, Oakley, Quiksilver, Rip Curl, and Rusty for making our tour grow each year and become such a big success, and to Baliwista (Bali’s Lifesaving Dept) for helping out at every event!” Mr. Ngurah Darma, the head of Bali’s Tourism Department, was next to take the microphone, informing the audience of how grateful he is for CCBI’s support of Bali and surfing, and how proud he is of the ISC’s success.

erbentuk di awal tahun 2008 lalu. Band ini sengaja memakai nama 1945 karena nama 1945 sendiri mempunyai makna yang dalam dan juga sudah sangat familiar di telinga orang Indonesia. 1945 mengusung aliran melodic dengan campuran emo pada lagunya. Lirik – lirik pada lagu 1945 lebih banyak menuju pada kehidupan sehari-hari dan tentu saja tidak lepas dari kelam dan gemerlap cinta. 1945 sudah memiliki beberapa lagu orisinil seperti Apologize, Whisper, dan Sarapan Siang. 1945 memutuskan untuk tetap eksis dan hidup dalam musik. Berusaha untuk mewarnai hidup para pendengar lewat musik – musiknya. Saat ini 1945 sedang dalam masa recording dan akan segera merilis album.

Still Got The Blues Hard Rock Café Bali`s A Night of blues with Made J & Friends

M

ade Jang sang and shout this heart out, with his steel guitar flicking and reflecting the dim light on the stage. Made J tells the bittenerss of life, love wich got shattered and even got thrown into prison in Jhony Cash classic “Folsom Prison Blues”. Just like an abandoned African slave in Mississipi river bank with a rag guitar in his hand and a knives to slide on it`s string as his only friends to tell his ill fated live. This would be the night where we turn down the light, and cut all the thumping sound that hit us a week prior. But at the same time, we let the sound of blues that roar like train runs heavy trough the day prairie run over our heart. It`s dark and it`s indisputable gloom but this the objective of the gig, Blues is here to explore the hidden dark side and bitter stories that lies within us all. Beer an whisky became our best friend that night to wash the sorrow away. “get my Mojo working” off muddy waters was brought insanely perfect trough a combination of Made J, Bali`s Blues man : Komang Layang , and Donald saxophone. They all sang the sound`s of rebellion, the sound freedom…Redemption song.

hile the silence of Nyepi fell over Bali, Gili Trawangan in Lombok was anything but quiet, where Sama Sama Bar and U- think Enterprise hosted the first ever Jammin Island Roots Rock Reggae festival. Top artists including Steven and Ray D‘Sky (Steven and the Coconut Treez) of Welcome to my paradise fame, and Lombok’s own Richard D’Gilis headlined the event. Also performing were Lawa Black Sweet, QQ Uprising, Freddy and Friends and Sama Sama regulars S2 Band. It was late afternoon and the official opening was marked with the release of 100 baby turtles to the ocean. The air was thick with smoke; the arak and the laughter flowed freely; dreadlocks were flying and the atmosphere soaring. The performers seemed to have more fun than anyone and there was a constant rotation of musicians on stage as these brothers from another mother jammed it out like there was no tomorrow. Later in the evening the storm had passed and we all headed outside to bask in the star light, eat barbecued fish and watch the fire dance show. When the music ended people drifted towards the bonfire on the beach and the soft strumming of guitars, or to Rudy’s Bar where everyone was leaping around on the dance floor to the Chemical Brothers and Eminem. And then, as the first rays of sun hit the island Gili finally fell silent.

8 April 2009 bertempat di Lapangan Parkir kampus UNUD Sudirman yang juga bertepatan dengan hari ulang tahun ke-26, Pers Mahasiswa “Akademika” Universitas Udayana menggelar kampanye lingkungan bertajuk Green Party. Green Party merupakan kampanye lingkungan yang disajikan dalam bentuk pagelaran musik. Kampanye ini merupakan bentuk kepedulian ”Akademika” sebagai penyadaran kepada masyarakat untuk menjaga lingkungan hidup. Dimulai dari hal kecil seperti membuang sampah pada tempatnya, menghemat penggunaan listrik ataupun air, mengurangi penggunaan benda elektronik yang mengandung CFC, dan ikut berpartisipasi melakukan 3R, Reduse, Reuse, dan Recycle, sebagai pengelolaan sampah yang efektif. Acara ini dimeriahkan dengan band performance seperti Rajawali Ingkar Janji, Artmosfer, D’Kantin, De Buntu, Tol Band Tol, Painfull By Kisses, Ed Eddy Residivis dan Psycofun. Green Party ini merupakan acara puncak dari rangkaian acara HUT Kademika. Maka tak heran pada saat acara pembukaan, “Akademika” meluncurkan kumpulan cerpen dengan judul Antologi Kekerasan, setelah melewati proses kreatif selama empat bulan. Buku ini berisikan kegelisahan tentang kekerasan yang makin dekat dengan masyarakat kita.

pohs frus edisnI

What made you interested in working in a surf shop? I wanted to get experience and also to have some branded clothes hehehhe…. How did you get the job at

Tsunami? My friend already worked here and when I finished school I was looking for a job so I just applied. I got an interview and was accepted. Does Tsunami have riders as well? No Do you surf? When I was still in primary school I used to surf but I wiped out and my board snapped and I lost my interest in surfing hehehehehe….. How long have you been at Tsunami? Just 6 months What’s good and bad about working at Tsunami? Mostly good but there are some fussy customers that are hard to deal with. How solid are the staff at Tsunami? How solid??? For sure we get on really well. They don’t pull rank and really welcome new people. Sometimes we hang out together. Where do you hang out? Often at Kama Sutra, but sometimes at Blue Eyes…But I really like all clubs…hahhahahaha, I just love to go out.. Ok, Last word for Magic Wave Hope we do well and keep growing

refrus eltteB

Apa sih yang ngebikin kamu interest kerja di surfshop? Pingin punya pengalaman dan pingin punya baju- baju branded gitu hehehhe…. Gimana ceritanya kamu bisa gabung sama Tsunami? Ada temen yang kerja disini duluan awalnya. Terus waktu aku lulus sekolah aku ditawarin.Ya udah aku apply aja. Nggak taunya dapet interview dan diterima Tsunami punya rider juga nggak? Nggak ada sih Ngomong-ngomong kamu surfing nggak nih? Dulu waktu masih SD aku surfing, tapi gara-gara wipe out dan papan ku patah, aku jadi patah arang juga buat surfing lagi, hehehehehe….. Udah berapa lama kamu gabung asama Tsunami? Baru 6 bulan ini Certain dong suka duka kerja di Tsunami Lebih banyak sukanya sih, tapi biasa laha ada beberapa customer yang rewel nggak jelas. Seberapa solid sih staff Tsunami? Seberapa solid??? Yang pasti kita akrab banget. Nggak ada senioritas karena mereka juga welcome banget sama anak baru. Kadang juga hang out bareng. Emang kalau hang out kemana? Seringnya di Kama Sutra, tapi kadang ke Blue Eyes…Cuma sebenernya aku suka

semua club sih…hahhahahaha, pokoknya ajeb-ajeb aja deh.. Oke, Last word buat Magic Wave Semoga lebih maju dan sukses

4 Star Heru

V

ia Yahoo Messen- ger, MW has opportunity to interview Heru, Shaggy Dog’s vocalist. Recently, Heru starts to surf again. It was his old activity when he still in Junior High School. Here, he told a little about Shaggy Dog’s new album, legislative candidates’ attitudes, and weeds legalization. Hmm… It sounds yummy!!!

MW : Hoi… Heru : Halo halo… MW : Well, it seems that you’re so busy, Brotha? Heru : Not really… MW : Do you mind to share 1015 minutes for interview? Heru : Anything for Magicwave… MW :Yihaa, Such a flattery!!! Ok, what are you doing, now? Heru : Mixing Shagggy Dog’s new album and preparing dubyouth’s gig in Jakarta. Dubyouth is my side project. MW : Ok..ok, who don’t know dubyouth anyway? With a busy day like that, when you do surfing??? (Some said that you start surfing again, right???) Heru : That’s the problem… Maybe after the mixing’s done… So I got a lot of times, then. It’s not cool far-off to Pacitan just for one day…hehe… Yup, I start surfing again… What a surprise you know it!!! MW : Hell yeaah, we heard that… Hahaha. So, what’s the different when you stand on board and stand on stage??? Heru : Hmm… When stand on board, it could wipe out all the stress while stand on stage in front of thousands human. Hahaha… MW : Wow… Artist like you, feels stressed when stand on stage??? Heru : Hehe… Not like that… The different is when we wait the wave, it’s so quiet. It’s extremely contrast when we stand on stage… MW : Actually, when did you start surfing??? Heru : Since I was in Junior High School in Bali. It’s about 2 years before I move to Jogja… MW : It’s quite long times ago, right… Mmm… Tell us a little about Shaggy Dog’s new album… Heru : This new album will be a varied album, with various themes. It’s about love, live, and tattoo… They’re all here. MW :Tattoo??? It sounds great… Got tattoo either??? Heru :Yup, most of Shaggy Dog’s have tattoo. Here, song entitled “ditato” has a message that tattoo is not a crime, but it depends on the person itself… So, stop value dishonor toward “mas berto” (tattooed society)!! MW :That’s right!!! Seems that you’re great become a legislative candidate… Hahaha… What do you think about legislative candidates in Indonesia? Heru : Don’t put portrait, title, and slogan only. But prove your faithful and action to this country. One more… don’t merely think how the money back during the campaign…hehehe… MW : Hahaha… Thus, if you were a President, won’t you legalize weeds??? Since it’s currently very expensive and hard to be found … Heru : Why not??? Sometimes they don’t realize that alcohol, nicotine, heroine, ecstasy, more dangerous than weeds. However, the law penalty for weeds is more serious than all of those stuffs. What a weird thought… It’s a plant, coming from the sky… C’mon, man… MW :Yeaah… Seems that you have to be a President, then…hahaha… Heru : Hahahaha… MW : Anyway, MW wants to know how many Groupies you have… Hmmm… Heru : Hahaha… A lot!!! Most of them are boys… MW : Oops… I think Kangen Band beat you, guys!!! Hahaha… Heru : That’s the consequence as a rebellion band!!! MW : Ok.Then, beside you, who else do surfing in Shaggy Dog???

: None yet. Just me. But, when we were in Bali, Bandiz, my bass player tried surfing in Dreamland. Lately, I try to toxic him surfing… Hehehe… MW : All right, then. Thanks for the times… Success for contaminating him surfing and also for Shaggy Dog’s new album… O’wait, I’m still curious about the meaning of “Shaggy Dog”??? Heru : Ok..ok.. Shaggy Dog = Sheepdog (Dog quilted sheep). Hahaha… Nothing. Just spontaneously bear by Bandiz my bass player. MW : Hahaha… luckily he spontaneously didn’t say Doggie Style…hahaha… Last word for Magic Wave… Heru : Work hard Play hard!!! Keep it magic!!! MW : Ok! Keep surfing, Brotha… Cheers!!! Oops, I forget something… Your personal details, please… Heru : Soon, Brotha… Soon… I’m already starving right now. I’ll send email, later... MW ; Affirmative, Sir!!! Heru : Anyway, what edition this interview plans to be launch??? MW : May 2009 Heru : Send it one to Jogja plus Magic Wave’s t’shirt, pleaseeee…

MW:Tato??sound’s great.. punya tato juga? Heru : Ya, mayoritas di shaggy dog bertato. Lagu “ ditato “ ini point nya adalah, bukan tato-nya yang jahat, tapi orangnya.. jadi jangan memandang negatif ke ‘ mas berto’ ( masyarakat bertato) MW: Yap..betul banget tuh. Kayaknya cocok juga jadi caleg..hahaha. Pendapat loe tentang para caleg gimana nih? Heru : Jangan cuma pasang foto,gelar dan slogan, buktikan tindakan dan nurani anda ke negeri ini. Dan satu lagi.. jangan cuma mikirin balik modal kampanye...hehehe MW: Hahaha...trus kalau misalkan loe jadi presiden,kira-kira loe mau gak melegalkan ganja??soalnya mahal banget dan susah sekarang cari barangnya (ganja-red) Heru : Boleh.. kadang orang-orang itu gak tau, kalo alkohol,nikotin,heroin,ekstasi itu lebih berbahaya dari ganja. Tapi, hukuman buat ganja itu lebih berat dari itu semua, aneh ya kalo dipikir-pikir.. its a plant, coming from the sky.. cmon man... MW: Yeah.....kayaknya loe harus jadi presiden nih..hahahaha Heru : Hahahaha

MW: hoi... Heru : halo halo

MW: Eh MW mau tau nih seberapa banyak groupies-loe…. hmmmmm Heru : hahaha.. banyak, dan kebanyakan cowok semua...

MW: Wah kayaknya sibuk banget ya bro? Heru : Lumayan lah

MW:Yahh..Kalah donk sama kangen band..hahahhaha Heru : Resiko jadi rebellion band

MW: Minta 10-15 menit buat interview ya..bisa kan? Heru : Apa sih yg gak bisa buat mw?

MW: Ok,trus selain loe, siapa anak shaggy dog yang surfing Heru : Gak ada, baru aku. Waktu maen di bali, Bandiz, bassisku juga sempat nyoba di dreamland. Lagi aku racunin surfing nih.. hehe

MW: Yihaa.... ngegombal

nih. Ok.. lagi sibuk apa bro? Heru : Sekarang ini sedang mixing album baru nya shaggydog dan mempersiapkan gig dubyouth di Jakarta, dubyouth itu side project ku MW:Ya..ya..siapa sih yg gak tau dubyouth. Wah kalo sibuk kayak gitu kapan waktu buat surfing?? (dengardengar sudah mulai surfing ya) Heru : Nah itu dia, mungkin habis mixing ini ya.. biar waktunya bener-bener luang. Soalnya kan sayang kalau jauh-jauh ke Pacitan cuma sehari..hehe.. iya lagi senang berselancar.. tau aja MW:Ya taulah...Hahahha. So, apa bedanya bediri di atas papan surfing sama di atas panggung? Heru : Hmm..Kalo berdiri di atas papan surfing bisa menghapus tekanan-tekanan ketika harus berdiri di atas panggung di depan ribuan manusia. Hahahaha... MW: Wow...artis sekaliber anda masih tertekan berdiri di atas panggung ya?? Heru : Hehe.. nggak nggak... bedanya tuh kalo surfing pas nunggu ombak,rasanya tenang banget. Cuma ada kita dan suara laut. Kalo di panggung, kebalikannya MW: Sebenarnya sejak kapan sih mulai surfing? Heru : waktu aku SMP di Bali. Surfing sekitar dua tahun, sebelum pindah ke Jogja MW: Udah lama juga ya..mmm.. ceritakan sedikit tentang album terbaru shaggy dog Heru : Album baru ini akan menjadi satu album yang variatif, temanya macam-macam, mulai dari cinta, kehidupan sampai lagu tentang tato semua ada

MW: Baiklah. Thanks waktunya... selamat meracuni dan sukses buat album shaggy dog... eh iya dari dulu gw penasaran. Apa sih maksud dari kata ‘shaggy dog’? Heru : ok ok, shaggy dog = anjing berbulu domba .Hahahaha. Gak ada,waktu itu spontan aja, namanya dari Bandiz bassisku MW: Hahahaha. Untung spontannya bukan doggie style..hahah...last word buat magic wave donk bro? Heru : work hard play hard.. keep it magic! MW: ok..keep surf bro...cheers. Eh ada yg kelupaan.Minta data pribadinya.... Heru : nyusul yah.. laper banget nih. Nanti aku email aja MW: sip Heru : ini mau buat edisi kapan?
