Balangan The first left reef set-up on the Bukit, Balangan is a consistent performer during the dry season (April - October) and is popular amongst intermediate surfers. One of the reasons for this is that it doesn’t barrel very often and the overall quality of the wave is at the lower end of the spectrum compared to other spots on the Bukit. The reef itself is about 300 meters long, but you can expect mostly 30 to 50 meter rides that speed away from you or simply closeout. Waves that link up for longer rides do roll through, but make sure to keep a lot of down the line momentum to get through the faster sections. These semi-closeout conditions are a symptom of smaller swells and once the aves get into the overhead or bigger range Balangan takes on a whole new look and 100+ meter rides are common and the crowd also tends to thin out during bigger swells.
