Sumatra - The Ultimate Bodyboarding Trip

Final places available for February 2025!

Welsh shredder George Boucher joined us in Sumatra in February 2024 and loved it so much that he’s re-booked to come again already!

His riding level went skyward as he enjoyed the tropical bowls and endless barrels. Cruising the coast, on the fringe of one of the world’s most incredible jungles is an incredible experience. This place is a bucket list for any serious bodyboarder. 

Check out this video log of one of our fun days on a previous trip. 

We caught up with George to get his thoughts after the trip, check out the waves that he enjoyed. Like what you see? Grab a final place on our February trip.

I’ve competed at bodyboarding since I was 13. I won my first open division age 14. Then became obsessed with bodyboarding and competed all over the country then the world.  My best year I won 11 events in the UK and internationally. My best result ever was ranking the highest European in the World professional championships at Pipeline. I won over 30 events when I was competing full time.  I have written and edited 4 books on surfing and bodyboarding. Two of which have gone on to be best sellers in their area of specialty.
