The Kandui Surf Resort, Mentawai Islands
Aug 3rd surf report
It’s been the same story for the last couple of days with Bankvaults and Nipusi being the call. Fun waves at both places, but a little busy at times. We had a fun afternoon session at 4 Bobs on the last full day of our guest’s trip and it’s always a nice way to end it, hanging out on the floating dock with cold Bintangs and fish stories about the waves everyone got. It was another fun trip with good surf and better people. Our new group arrived today, most of them in the morning, and got a good surf in right off the bat. Looking at the forecasts, they have about 2 days to warm up and then it’s on! This forecast looks bigger than the trip we had in June with 3 back to back to back macking swells in the pipeline! Winds are forecast to be pretty much light and variable so we’ll have to wait and see what we get. Should be eventful!
Aug 1st surf report
Wow, August already! We have continued to get fun waves. Yesterday, we surfed 7 different spots! Some were average surfs, but a couple were really good and we capped the day off with an unexpectedly good session at Bankvaults with just a couple of other guys out. It’s been just about all Bankvaults and Nipusi ever since. Nothing big, but clean and consistent. Crowds have been a factor with the north winds blowing everyone to those spots, but we’ve been dodging the pack and getting some good windows. Looking like more of the same for the rest of this trip, but the guys coming next better be packing their guns!
