Kia ora, good people.
I’m in dire need for some good advice. Arrived last night at Padang, but my boards didn’t. Thank you, Sydney Airport - useless pricks.
Boat leaves this evening, and with only one Garuda flight before then, I have my doubts.
Friendly lady from the boat said we could ship it out to Tuapajet on the fast ferry, but that could be ages, and a hassle logistically.
Any decent 2nd hand board to be sniffed out around here?
Jordy Smith was on the same flight and had 15 boards probably exactly my dims. I need to find him and sweet talk him :-)
