INDOSOLE SAVES THE WORLD



Opening in late 2018 Indosole’s flagship store in Echo Beach has enjoyed some great community gatherings and has been so much fun that we wanted to expand our reach and ability to help affect positive change and continue to provide alternative solutions to waste issues globally. We want to do this by providing the ability to live a fun and beautiful life. So we believe there is no better spot for our second store than near one of the most iconic waves in the world—Uluwatu. Then, in following the Taksu philosophy and the balance of Yin and Yang, we felt Ubud was the best lokasi for our 3rd store in Bali. We found a perfect little spot on the beautiful walking street of Jl Goutama in Ubud. We hope to see you there with a huge smile on your face and we will be smiling right back at you, ready to help you find a great pair of sandals. We think you will love them. Plus, they are going to last you a long time. To date we have recycled over 100,000 used tires, so please help us to push on by visiting us here: Indosole Echo Beach, Canggu, 69 Jl pantai Batu Mejan. Indosole Uluwatu - Jl. Labuan Sait No 10 (Uluwatu Corner) and Indosole Ubud - Jl Goutama No 3. You will be glad you did.

CAUGHT INSIDE # 128

Sea Dreams. We all have them. And we are bringing some more to you in this new issue of Surftime Magazine. Consider the photo on the right. Can you see it? Really see it? The dreams that are scrawled on that dream machine? A child’s sea dreams for all the world to see. A homegrown machine hewn out of the scraps of a snapped board washed up on the beach. The homegrown logos, scrawled with such passion, misspellings and reversals and all. A physical manifestation of passion and desire. The passion for surfing and the desire to belong to the tribe. If this surfer couldn’t get his hands on a real dream board, then let the surf Gods be damned, he would make it himself. The real stuff of sea dreams in a single image. We have a lot of other images of dreams for you too. Take the cover with Tai Graham, once again in the center of perfection at some remote secret spot of his. As always making his sea dreams come true. And even more so as we let him pick the color scheme for the cover itself

CAUGHT INSIDE # 130

The question is can we keep it up? The answer is yes, as long as, like a satellite in outer space, we can keep our orbit from decaying. Our orbit being the entire biomass system of tourists and waves that keep the island of Bali’s heart beating. Right now the best we can do is deal with it. But dealing with something means having it in hand. Which we barely do. What happens when we lose our grip? One need only look at the shortcut in Canggu to see what kind of inhuman chaos ensues. The answer? For everyone on earth to be thoughtful. Which millions of years on earth has proven impossible. It’s just not in our survival mode. So what’s next? Circle the wagons, I guess. Take our surfing world, observe our orbit’s momentum and health and keep it in hand. And we have such a wonderful orbit happening. But now, with the steamrolling effect of greed tourism and irresponsible development sounding like a death knell, it’s time to look at Bali’s surfing healthspan rather than its lifespan. Th

MEDEWI: Life by the side of the skeleton road

It is late afternoon. That time of day on any west coast where the color of the sea and the land contract into vivid hues and shadows begin to crawl east like living things and a golden path rises from the sea and leads to the sun. You are at the surf break of Medewi Point on the island of Bali, far from the tourist madness to the south and you can see alpha local Muklis Anwar and his covey of wet, shiny, local kids crabbing their way toward shore over the slippery boulders on the inside of the surf break. A misstep here and any one of them will receive a spray of urchin spines deep into the front pads of their feet and nothing more than a sewing machine needle to dig them out with. Muklis has been teaching the village kids how to surf and the kids hold under their arms all manner of relic surfboards. Chunked, split and repaired, cast away like dolls without heads by the western visitors of this place over the decades. Yet these boards are gold to the humble, to be smelted and re-
