ROXY Pro O.M.G-Land: Top 5 Highlights

We have officially left the jungle! After a queasy 3-hour boat trip back to Bali, we were happy to hear the buzz about OMG-Land & Finals day from locals and the Bali team on our return.

It was a wild time at Grajagan, from the unrelenting jungle heat to the diverse wildlife (monkeys, mosquitos, snakes & a leopard print sighting) OMG-Land was unlike any other event.

Here are our top 5 moments from our time in Java:

 

1. Arrival

Getting to G-Land certainly isn't simple. We flew into Bali, took a boat with our team and WSL crew from Pantai Jerman Beach, cruised over the Bali Straights in approximately 3 hours to Alas Purwo National Park, one last small boat ride to the shores of Plengkung Beach and a quick truck ride to camp. Easy!
