Russian Surfer




Hi I am a Russian surfer. I have been surfing for 30 years. I am the first Russian surfer to come to Bali to surf the tubes of Ulu Watu and Padang. My first trip to Bali was in 1985. Ever since I have been surfing waves throughout Indonesia. I am the first Russian to go and surf places like G land, Mentawaii, Timor, Sumbawa, Lombok, Sumatra and others.
My goals are to promote surfing for Russians and establish a Russian Surfing Assosiation,
as well as provide information, and connect Russian Surfers with surf schools, surf camps,
surf boat charters, and acomodations to have wonderful surfing experiences in Bali , all over Indonesia as well everywhere in the world.
For years I ve been teaching surfing to v.i.p. clients from Russia as well taking them to various destinations on Bali and other islands in Indonesia.
I am the first Russian surf film maker and photographer.
In 1997 I produced my first surf film about the surfing and lifestyle in Indonesia, "The Year of the Tiger". Since then I have filmed, photographed and surfed many amazing waves all over Indonesia.
For years I was the only Russian surfer that I ever met other then my students.
Now am very happy to see many Russian learning surfing in Bali and other places.
There is even a Russian surf club in Russia.
I look forward to sharing my 30 years of surfing experience with the Russian surf comunity.
