This festival promises a unique surfing
experience; not on a beach, but on the Kampar
River in Riau. Only recently discovered by
the international tidal river surfing community,
the tidal bores in Kampar, locally known
as bono, rush in at speeds of 40kph.
The surf can rise as high as four to six
metres, at times creating barrels.

Festival ini menawarkan pengalaman
berselancar yang unik, karena tidak berlokasi
di pantai, melainkan di Sungai Kampar, Riau.
Ditemukan baru-baru ini oleh komunitas
selancar sungai internasional, arus di Sungai
Kampar, yang disebut bono, mengalir dengan
kecepatan 40 km/jam. Ombaknya bisa naik
setinggi empat sampai enam meter dan
kadang-kadang menciptakan gulungan.
