Indonesian surf legend Rizal Tanjung recently launched a vlog on a new YouTube channel called IndoMomentTV. It follows the adventures of Rizal, his two ripper sons, and a cast of characters from near and far.

In the latest episode below, Rizal scores an invite to the Uluwatu Single Fin Classic and plans to ride a Lightning Bolt shaped by his "hero," Gerry Lopez.

"He's a pioneer of surfing in Indonesia and he opened the door for all the surfers here," Rizal says. Adding that Lopez "put the seed on the ground," and now he's "enjoying the fruits."

The vlog above is captioned:

"The 4th annual Single Fin Classic surf contest, with some of the world's best surfers competing at one of the most iconic waves in the world, ULUWATU.

"The greatest weekend of surfing in Bali for the year and well known as the greatest surf contest in the world. Following Rizal Tandjung as he acquires a vintage 7'2" Gerry Lopez Pipeliner from the iconic surfboard brand, Lightning Bolt.

"The catch, the board is finless! Will Rizal be able to get the right fin and get it glassed on in time for his heat? Many of the surfers have also never ridden a single fin before, how will they perform?

"It was a solid 4-6ft swell and pumping with clean and epic conditions for the whole event. Watch the epic show and check out the PROJECT: BLACK movie covering the whole event linked below the description."
