Mentawai Surfing trip - 15 days until departure


In 15 days we will be departing to the airport and the Donkey indo surfing journey will begin.

24 hours of flying to Kuala Lumpur the capital of Malaysia via Malaysia Air for most and Singapore Airlines / Hawaiian Airlines for a few others, 2 days enjoying KL, a 2 hour private reservation for the wave pool at Sunway Lagoon, no doubt a few hours of antics at the swim up bar at our hotel in KL, a short 1 hour flight to Padang Indonesia followed by a day of rest and body/equipment prep. 1 puddle jump buddy holly plane flight out to the islands, followed by a 2 hour boat ride to the resort. Thats allot of travel time, considering the actual surfing part of the trip is just getting started..

11 days at kandui resort and surfing the playgrounds region of the mentawais, considered by many to be the best concentration of surf breaks in the world. Our island resort is located within a stones throw of 25 world class waves all of which we access via our exclusive fleet of 6 boats used to ferry us from one uncrowded barrel to the next. Oh... and did I mention we are shooting a movie too? Yeah a movie, in 1080 HD.
