Jim Banks has just finished the fourth leg of his six month long Indo Odyssey. He sailed around Sumba with three hot surfers aboard: Fish, a young expat from Bali, Australian Antony Walsh, and his brother Stephen. As you can see from the photos they scored exceptional waves.

Jim still has bookings open for legs in the South Mentawai's and North Sumatra. He will also be revisiting Sumba again next year. Visit his site for more information or to make a booking.

All these photos were taken by Brad Masters.//STUART NETTLE
