What a beautiful wave and beautiful backdrop to boot.

Great tuberiding.

Nice to think waves like that still exist, maybe I'll dream that wave tonight :)

That wave to me looks to be as good as it gets, holds right up to get in and then rifles off along at the perfect speed, what a reef!

OK detective Brokensha where is it....?
Phillipines my call.

few landmarks to Google haha

Craig you found where this is yet?

In all seriousness tho. I reckon he's given enough away to locate this wave. Anyone up to the challenge?

Certainly a majestic looking wave.

Exactly simba

I'm all over this spot. I've narrowed it down at least I reckon. Fkn social media ayyyy.
Ruining things in so many ways

Biri Islands sorry if it was meant to be a secret.

This is exactly what ruins a perfectly beautiful spot. Every one goes rabid finding where it is and in a year or two is trashed. Just out line the story and give no clues and just shoot the wave! Ain't fucking rocket science and fuck social media!

Found it :)

There's already a surf resort there... next.

Do I get a prize or what?

So heres a question worthy of investigation:
Did A-Gray get invited by some random caring and sharing bloke who connected to him on Insty, or did the owner of the resort engage him for some creative PR?

Always wanted to go here heard about it while in indo in 2005, not exactly secret

I like Alex Gray. He seems like a really positive energetic chap.

But to exploit a little known wave (I know some boys who have had this place on) for ten minutes of fame to please the sponsors, is not ok.

This is the surfing equivalent to the German "hunter" who paid £40k to kill the biggest elephant in Africa, a national treasure of an endangered species.

Booka- maybe not a secret but it's been kept quiet enough that there's not heaps of information on the web about it and that those guys could get it pumping to themselves. Watch that all change rapidly now.

I find it pretty funny that it's on wanna surf but no-one ever commented on it there.

A Kiwi who does maintenance up here surfed that right for a month many years ago, the bastard, and he won't shut up about it.

My guess is it's not always that big or perfect or uncrowded.......Nice promotional video though..(could they give away anymore clues).Way to blow it out, which is ironic considering A gray is from palos verdes.........oh the irony.....
In my Honest opinion, if there is a resort there, then it's too late.The ship has sailed......

Not new at all. There was a group of American and Australian part-time residents (courtesy of their citizen wives) who would severly hassle anyone with cameras who went there for 20+ years - maybe they have eased up or been restrained by others. That's why it isn't crowded, even though it is a known location and has been since the mid 1980's.

Fickle-pines .

Always wanted to surf this wave ever since i saw it i think on Gripping stuff 2.

BTW. few vids on Vimeo if you know what your looking for more fun and playful when small.

The waves been out there for a long time. But there's a reason it hasn't turned into a complete crowded shitfight, like Nias is.
Inconsistent and fickle as.

cd knows.

funny thing is - there's a place in the 'pines with a grouping of such waves and uncrowded - albeit equally as inconsistent. ain't no social media there, though. get out there :)

Inconsistent, fickle and right in the storm track of typhoons.
So good luck if you get one with the wrong track.

A few hundred nautical miles north me and a mate camped at a perfect left for a month, a mirror of that wave and didn't see another whitey the whole time we were there. Somehow, no resort, no infrastructure, no social media, as far as I know. Fucking pain in the arse to get there.
Fickle-pines though, first month I didn't get the boards out of the bag.

If there is such a thing as karma in this world - which I like to believe there is - then Alex Gray just bought himself a shitload of grief.

To all those comments above that say that excellent wave should stay hidden? I say grab a tissue girls . A wave that has no one on it may as well not exist. I only get to surf about 20 times a year, I'm not very good but I love it and I would go out in that surf but I dare say that if I was out there with some of u blokes I wouldn't even get a wave because it would be a hassle. To all you precious ones who feel that the lesser surfers should just get out of the way, I say bit me!!!. Try enjoying the sport and worry about how you engage with you fellow surfers. At the end of the day we are all just trying to forget the life we live on land and get some well earned down time.
When I'm riding a wave my mind is exactly were I want it to be blank.
You guy's might think I am a plebe or a trog and no worthy of having my say, If you do think that way. I don't think your not worthy.
Remember fellers you don't have to have a long neck to be a goose.

P.S to the two greedy 25 yr old Pelicans who thought it was a good idea to two out me whilst in the water at Mollymook on Saturday how does it feel to get dusted up by a 50 yr old on land. A tip be weary of the quiet old fella.

@ Weekend warrior Your the one causing trouble . Yes your a kook and your not the only kook that's ever thought he would be expected in the line up because he is having a go .
So your getting in fights with 25 year olds at 50 . You sound like your the type that could really ruin some bodies day .

Well said Rusty and boo fuckin hoo weekend warrior . Seems like these days the endless consumer rot that is the surfing money making machine won't stop exposing new spots until the last one is gone . From the surf school surfer factories (people who need to pay money to be taught to surf probably shouldn't surf ) to the monthly Kmart catalogues ( surf mags ) and the endless trendy product drives of the surf companies into the far reaching places of the world that don't even have oceans fuck you for helping stuff one of the best pastimes ever. If you know a spot somewhere that isn't crowded with kooks yet keep it to yourself , forget about your 5 minutes of exposure fame . Loose lips sink ships , keep it to yourself and enjoy it for what it is . Bit of a rant sorry but videos like this piss me off enough to write

I think it's a Generational thing. These days the kids don't seem to mind blowing the spots out......... pro surfers could care less.
Really no one owns the surf spots.
That being said, i in no way endorse this promotion.
Waves =Finite resources.

I guess i'm from a different generation of surfers, I also grew up surfing without crowds.
For me it seems funny that you would want to tell other surfers where the waves are.

Do they not realise they are doing it?

Fickle-pines , lol!

I have been surfing for forty years and never had a disagreement with anyone.
What do you do when a couple of fools run 150m up the beach because i call one of them a cock head when he drops in twice in a 15 min period when there is 5 guys in the water and the waves just rolling in every 5 min with 4 to 5 waves in a set. I'm past the stand up for your self shit!!! i have a motto MIND OVER MATTER? i don't mind, because they don't matter.
Sometimes the youth of the day have to be torte a lesson in humility.
i got punched twice in the back of the head before i retaliated.
So to you Lukesripping put your three middle fingers up in front of your face and read between the lines.
notso disgruntled Weekend Warrior

There was an article on a joint called majestics - it's not that place is it?

Weekend Wazza no one cares if you surf once a year or 50 mate so long as you take your turn no probe. As for the wave staying hidden theres probably plenty of people who have been there and go there who are pretty pissed off as it will go from one extreme to another.

As for your altercation if you were sticking up for yourself good on you but I wouldn't single piss poor behaviour in the surf on young blokes as theres plenty of older blokes who can be difficult to surf with its a personality thing not an age thing mate.

this is a perfect example on how things go in this mad world.
surfspot with few guys, everyone having fun, keeping it fairly quiet, some pro shows up, gopros, drones, socialmedia, featured on surfermag, swellnet, surfline etc.
over 15k likes on instagram cause everyone of them wants to surf a wave like that with no one out. as some dude said, another spot bites the dust.
as it happend i was there when agray surfed that place, some oldskooler aussies told him off and said no camera. he surfed on lower tides, therefore only him and a booger.
so it looks even more inviting to all them uluwatu dudes who do it for the photos.
what can we do, cant play god and change the world. maybe pingpong as a hobby will do it for me in 2016. happy new years yeyyy

Loose lips sink ships. Good one. Lesson learned.

He charges in out back session's too awesome dvd...

Hey Creepy, that's really sad to hear that Alex was asked to keep a lid on it but ignored those requests of the guys to keep it quiet.

The one positive from discussions like this is that younger less experienced surfers might gain awareness that exposing any good spot will eventually attract crowds and eventually depletes your own surfing enjoyment in the future.

I couldn't tell where it was, until the people complaining explained to me its location.
