Dylan counts 40 turns on his wave, and has promised to keep us all updated as soon as he hears back. An update at the bottom of the video description notes that the ride was recently submitted to the Guinness Book of World Records for the title of Most Turns on a Single Wave, a title currently held by Cristóbal de Col for 34 turns on a wave at the infamous break of Chicama in Peru. “For now I have uploaded this ride in it’s entirety,” Dylan notes in the video description, “because I’m going to cut it down in the edit and it was one of the funnest and longest rides I’ve ever had, over five minutes of not one but seven wedges! So I’m posting it here for the memory books.”Īnd as it turns out, more than just his own memory books. Beberapa lokasi yang paling terkenal untuk gelombang ini adalah Sungai Kampar di Indonesia (terlihat dalam video) dan Sungai Qiantang di Tiongkok, di mana gelombang pasang terbesar di dunia mencapai ketinggian hingga 9 meter. Dylan caught it on a good day, with the wave reaching head-high at times, and shredded the heck outta it. Tidal Bore hanya terjadi di beberapa lokasi di seluruh dunia dengan kisaran pasang surut yang besar. One describes how Alexander the Great was almost killed by a tidal bore in the. The name “Seven Ghosts” comes from the so-called tidal whelps, secondary waves that follow the main tidal front, of which, surprise surprise, there are seven. In my book The Power of the Sea there are two stories about tidal bores. And recently, Dylan rode another, decidedly spicier, tidal bore in Indonesia known localy as “Bono” and worldwide as the “Seven Ghosts,” of course the spot that was part of the Rip Curl Search more than a decade ago. In the inaugural season of the wildly popular Weird Waves, Dylan Graves went to England and surfed the Severn Bore himself. Tide chart for Truro Showing low and high tide times for the next 30 days at Truro. In fact, the current world record for longest wave ever surfed is held by Steve King: 9.25 miles on a tidal bore up the Severn River in Great Britain. Detailed behavior of the tidal at each estuary is then analyzed qualitatively based on the measured tidal bore upstream taking into consideration the river morphology.Tidal bores may very well be one of the least-explored frontiers of surfing, perfect for weird-wave aficionado Dylan Graves to set a new world record, seemingly by accident.įormed on rivers near the coast, tidal bores occur when a flood tide hits the outgoing river water, with the tidal bore traveling up the river against the direction of the current. Temporal distributions and comparisons between simulated and observed tidal results suggested that tidal conditions of the 4 (four) estuaries can be analyzed based on the model output. The model covers Malacca Strait in which the boundaries lie at Andaman Sea, South China Sea and Java Sea. Tidal bore generation is analyzed using hydrodynamic models in the estuaries and is validated by field measurement of tides in the river mouth. Kampar, Rokan, Indragiri and Siak) along the eastern side of Sumatra Island. During the biggest tides of the year (usually in Spring), the bore subsists. Present work introduces and analyses the physical processes of 4 (four) rivers (i. The 7 Ghosts happen deep in the Sumatran jungle of Indonesia on the Kampar River. A better understanding of these processes may help in conservation and restoration of the tidal bore phenomenon. However, according to the locals, the magnitude of the tidal bore of Kampar known as �Bono� has been decreasing significantly, which may be due to the changes in the physical and hydrodynamic conditions at the estuaries and the river. This phenomenon is a fascinating event as in Kampar River, Indonesia. Keywords: Tidal bore, estuaries, hydrodynamic models, bono, Kampar River IndonesiaĪbstract: Tidal bore travels up from estuary to a river against the direction of the river's flow.
