Located in the pristine waters of the Indian Ocean, these remote Indonesian islands are renowned for their world-class waves and unspoiled landscapes. Surfers from around the globe flock to Hinako for its consistent swell and vast variety of breaks catering to all levels. As the sun sets behind the palm-fringed beaches, the sense of serenity and connection to nature that comes with riding these waves is truly incomparable, it definitely beats the soggy summer we’ve had this year, pah.

Would you keep walking down a steep trail toward a pounding shore break if someone drops a "you might die out there" as you walk passed? It almost had us...
Luckily for your viewing entertainment we followed through with our plan of surfing down at the iconic Kelinking Beach, after getting a tip from a friend that it might be worth a shot. One of the steepest trails I've ever walked down (and back up), but well worth it for the breath taking views along the way and the pristine beach waiting for you at the bottom. Throw some thumping shore pound in the mix and you got a recipe for a really good time.- Dylan Graves 

"It's official, the waves are massive! I never thought I'd see Italy & the Mediterranean Sea look like this. Thanks to my friend Albert we found this absolutely hectic wave cave of doom that we just had to try. Albert claims the best novelty wave in all of Italy and he just might be right. Enjoy" - Ben Gravy

Trying to ride a little between sets wave up the reef to exit the session. But end up being sucked across the near dry slab & dropped off into the keyhole gulley. RAW GoPro POV & land footage of being blasted against, up and out of the gulley. Escaping with a bruised hip, a snapped fin & a few dings.

Incidentally, in the hurry to get in the surf, I forgot to screw up one of the front side fins, only to realise out the back before the first wave. Fortunately it stayed in fine for the whole session.

The 2nd ride here gives another angle and perspective of the the sink hole to avoid getting caught in.
Everything happens fast at once, this slow motion ride allows for time to also appreciate the backwash of the cliff, gurgles the entire way, the mass of barely wet reef in front of the wave, the backdoor section. Being on the outside rail in the tube counteracting the suck as it barrels, the bend in the wave that goes off the reef - Ian Battrick
