Way Jambu surf break South Sumatra
Muro Burgos. Way Jambu ~ 2019
General surf information
Way Jambu also known as Sumatran Pipeline is the best quality wave in the Krui, Tanjung Setia area. A long left hand surf break with a down the line hollow barrel. Be prepared for a critical take-off in front of very shallow reef and stand-up barrels on bigger days.
Can be ridden from 1.5 to 3 mtrs. In general for advanced to expert surfers only but sometimes on smaller days when the conditions are right it can provide a challenge for the intermediate to advanced surfer.
Vibe in the water
When Way Jambu really gets going it's a wave of consequence. At 1.8 mtrs you will usually find only 6 in the lineup, on bigger days 1 or 2. As is the case with Jimmy's right and Honey Smacks sufers look out for each other at this break.
