I Gde BerataPada Magic Wave disi April, StevePalmer sudah bercerita tentang Sejarahsurfing di Bali. Dan pada edisi inigiliran I Gde Brata selaku PresidenIndonesia Surf Life Saving Associationbercerita tentang sejarah surfingBali. Dan inilah hasil interviewMagic Wave dengan I Gde Brata.Kepedulian terhadap masa depanpariwisata Bali menjadi motivasibagi Presiden IndonesianSurf Life Saving Association ini untukmeningkatkan keamanan di pantai danturut mengembangkan potensi surfingBali. Sembari menikmati suasana malamyang cerah berbintang. Dengan penuhkeramahan, Pak Brata menyambut MWdi kediamannya untuk mengulik-ulikkembali kenangan peradaban surfing diBali.Banyak wisatawan asing pesimis akantumbuh berkembangnya surfing di Bali.Mengingat karekter masyarakat denganreligiusnya yang kental dan kepercayaanterhadaphal-halmistis.Saya ingetbetulbagaimana anggapan orang-orang tentangkeangkeran pantai Kuta. Sebabbanyak sekali orang tenggelam dantak terselamatkan.Namun pada tahun 1966, saya melihatbeberapa bule yang sangat atraktifdi atas ombak menggunakan papanpanjang seolah menaiki motor diatasair. Akhirnya saya berkenalan denganmereka dan berteman sangat baikdengan salah satu dantaranya yaituJohn Michael Boyum dari Hawaii.Dialah yang membuat saya terkagumkagumdengan penyelamatanya terhadap4 orang dari keluarga Sumatera MotorDenpasar, meskipun salah satunya telahtak bernyawa. Dari dia pula untuk pertamakalinya saya mempelajari life saving.Setelah kedatangan John Michael Boyumtersebut, setiap bulannya mulai berdatanganbule-bule dan semakin banyak yang surfingdi Kuta. Dan tahun 1971, para pemuda Kutamulai mempelajari surfing dengan meminjamalat-alat dari wisatawan asing tersebutdan mengikis ketakutan akan mistisnyapantai Kuta. Karena kebiasaan para bule iniyang menitipkan surfboard kepada pemudalocal ketika akan pulang ke negaranya. Peluangitulah yang dimanfaatkan pemuda kutauntuk terus berlatih surfing.Melihat potensi yang muncul dari parapemuda Kuta, Ketua umum KONI Bali danKanwil depdikbud yang menjabat waktu itumengusulkan dibentuknya organisasi yangmengampu kegiatan surfing di Bali. Sehinggapada tahun 1973 lahir The surfing Club ofBali yang resmi berdiri atas persetujuan dannaungan langsung KONI daerah yang ketikaitu diketuai oleh saya sendiri. Pendukungyang merangakap sebagai pelatih asing telahditunjuk yaitu Mr. John Michaek Boyum dariHawaii. Tujuan berdirinya club ini adalahuntuk mempermudah jalinan persahabatandengan internasional dan mempercepatperkembangan surfing bali agar dapat diakuisebagai olah raga nasional yang antinyadapat mewakili bangasa Indonesia ke duniaInternasional.(bersambung…………)In the April edition of Magic Wave weheard about the history of surfing inBali from Steve Palmer. In this editionwe continue the story from theperspective of I Gde Brata, Presidentof the Indonesian Surf Life Saving Association.Concern for the future of tourismin Bali motivated Pak Brata to improvethe safety of the beach andhelp develop the potential for surfing inBali. While enjoying the night atmosphereand the bright stars at his house, PakBrata answered our questions about hismemories of the beginning of the surfingculture in Bali.“Many tourists were pessimistic aboutthe possibility of developing surfing inBali, keeping in mind the strong religiousbasis of the society and its belief in themystical world. I remember well peoples’suspicions about Kuta Beach becausemany people drowned there and couldnot be saved.But in 1966 I saw some tourists lookingreally good on the waves, using a longboard, like riding a bike on the water. Iintroduced myself to them and becamegood friends with them, one of themwas John Michael Boyum from Hawaii.He shocked me by saving 4 people fromthe Sumatera Motor Denpasar family, althoughone of them couldn’t be revived. Itwas from him that I first learned aboutlife saving.After John Michael Boyum came, almostevery month more tourists cameto surf at Kuta. In 1971 the young boysin Kuta started to learn to surf withboards borrowed from the tourists andstarted to lose the fear and suspicionassociated with the beach. Usually thetourists would leave their boards withsome of the locals when they wenthome and that gave the Kuta locals thechance to keep practicing their surfing.Seeing the potential of the young Kutasurfers, the head of KONI Bali (sportdept) and Kanwil Depdikbud (Areaoffice Education and Culture department)suggested that an organizationbe formed to support surfing activitiesin Bali. In 1973 the Surfing Club of Baliwas started with the agreement ofKONI and headed by me. John MichaelBoyum offered support as foreigncoach. The aim of the club was to forminternational relationships and speedup the development of surfing in Baliso that it could be recognized as a nationalsport and later Indonesia couldbe represented at an international level.(To be continued……….)14 MAGIC WAVE _May 2009
Watch out for Dengue Fever!We think it’s time to remind youabout dengue fever… again.The tropics and the rainy season...One unique combination that remindsus of dengue fever. Indonesia is anendemic region of dengue fever. Thisdisease can be found in almost everyregion and anytime of the year, with ahigher incidence during rainy season,which is generally October to April(the highest incidence usually is duringFebruary and March), because it givesa better habitat for the vector, themosquito, to breed. For informationabout the disease, the symptoms andothers, go to our archive. In this articlewe’ll discuss more about mosquito biteprevention.DEET. This remains the gold standardof currently available mosquito and tickrepellents. Comparison studies suggestthat DEET preparations are the mosteffective insect repellants now available.Recommended concentration:•35 % or more for adults who are inhigh risk regions for prolonged periods•20% - 35% for most adults andchildren over 12 years old, providescomplete protection for an average of5 hoursused in billions of applications. Only 50 such toxicreactions have been reported and most of themresolved without any consequences.When applying DEET, the following precautionsshould be taken:•Do not use on the face and apply only enoughto cover exposed skin on other areas.•Do not over apply and do not use under clothing.•Do not apply over any cuts, wounds or irritatedskin.•Parents or an adult should apply repellent toa child and not let the child apply it to him orherself. Parents or an adult should first put DEETon their own hands then apply it to the child.Avoid putting DEET not only near the child’s eyesand mouth, but also on the hands (since childrenfrequently touch their faces).•Wash any treated skin after going back indoors.•If using a spray, apply DEET outdoors--neverindoors. Spray repellents should not be appliedinside or directly on anyone’s face.Other Insect Repellent Products•Soy-based Bite Blocker, is safe for infants andgives protection that averaged over an hour and ahalf.•Citronella - or mixed oil based products, protectsfor an average of 20 minutes or less.avoid using permethrin.Other Preventive Measures. Other preventivemeasures include:•Wearing trousers and long-sleevedshirts, particularly at dusk. One surveysuggested that this measure may significantlyreduce the incidence of mosquitoborndisease.•Sleeping only in screened areas.•Air-conditioning may reduce mosquitoinfiltration. Where air-conditioning is notavailable, fans may be helpful. Mosquitoesappear to be reluctant to fly in windy air.•Don’t wear perfumes.•Minimizing skin exposure after dusk.•Washing hair at least twice a week.•Burning citronella candles reduces thelikelihood of bites. Indeed, burning anycandle helps to some extent, perhapsbecause the generation of carbon dioxidediverts mosquitoes toward the flame.Smoke from burning certain plants, includingginger, beetle nut and coconut husks,have also reduced mosquito infiltration, butthe irritating and toxic effects on the eyesand lungs may be considerable, such as thecitrosa plant. To date, no evidence showsmuch benefit but such methods are notharmful.For people living in Indonesia, thehealth department recommends toprevent mosquito breeding sites.Mosquitoes usually lay their eggs onstill water. It is advised to:•Drain out water from desertcoolers/window air coolers (whennot in use), tanks, barrels, drums,buckets etc.•Remove all objects containingwater (e.g. plant saucers etc.) fromthe house.•Collect and destroy discardedcontainers in which water collectse.g. bottles, plastic bags, tins, usedtyres etc.•In case it is not possible to drainout various water collections or tofully cover them, use temephos, aninsecticide, ( brand name Abate) 1part per million according to the localguidelines to prevent larvae fromdeveloping into adults.Source:•MdConsult•CDC•WHO•10% or less for children ages 2 to 12,but some experts believe that these aresafe even for infants over two monthsold.DEET has been used for more than40 years and is safe for most childrenwhen used as directed.Remember! The effectiveness of DEETvaries from individual to individual anddepends on climate changes. For example,it can be washed off during swimmingor by rain. High temperaturesmake it less effective. DEET, particularlyin very high concentrations, can alsodissolve plastics, including those usedin glasses, watches and some syntheticclothing. DEET then should not be puton clothing.Overexposure to DEET at any age hasproduced toxic effects, including itching,rash and in severe cases, irritability,insomnia, and confusion. It shouldbe noted, however, that it has beenintensively studied for 40 years and•Synthetic insect repellent IR3535, provides protectionfor 20 minutes to an hour.•Repellent containing eucalyptus, offers protectionthat averages 2 hours and is a good alternative,particularly for children.•Bayrepel, a piperidine derivative, mainly used inEurope, may prove to be very protective.•Bath oils, all wristbands (including those thatcontain DEET or emit sound), garlic and vitaminB1, are proved to offer very little protection ornone at all.Permethrin. It is an insect repellent used as aspray for clothing and bed nets, which can repelinsects for weeks when applied correctly. Electricvaporizing mats containing permethrin may bevery helpful. A permethrin solution is also availablefor soaking items, but should never be appliedto the skin. Side effects from direct exposure mayinclude mild burning, stinging, itching and rash, butin general, this agent is very safe and its use mayeven reduce child mortality rates from malaria.Travelers allergic to chrysanthemum flowers orwho are allergic to head-lice scabicides shouldMAGIC WAVE _ May 2009 15
