Kandui Surf Resort Mentawai Islands
Oct 29th surf report.
Our latest group left today. Thanks to Brad for writing the surf reports for us. This crew started the trip catching the tail end of that epic, mid October run of good surf. The second half of the trip was spent doing a lot of Bugerworld runs with a few solo sessions at lesser know spots mixed in. All in all, the boys were stoked. We had a rare day yesterday in that we didn’t look for surf. That only happens about 5 days a season!!! We could have gotten some waves, but everyone was Bugerworld’ed out. Game 6 of the World Series was on (it went 11 innings!) so it was just too easy to hang out and enjoy a relaxing day on the island. Plus everyone was up kind of late the night before with the medicine men dropping by to dance for us. We also had a bonfire yesterday on, formerly know as, Snake Island, then One Palm Island, now Sand Island. We brought beers and the dogs and had a great time. Rokok, the dog, gave us a scare though! He didn’t like the fire (or the company, we’re not quite sure!), so he decided to sneak off and go home. The only problem with that is that Sand Island is over a kilometer from the resort and the ocean was choppy with a ripping current and the sun had gone down! The boys had some long faces when they came back, fearing the worst, but that was quickly replaced with jubilation when they were met by Rokok on the beach. He made the swim like a champion! You’ve never seen a dog get so much attention. We’re thinking that might have been Rokok’s ploy all along since Huero has been getting so much attention lately after what looked like a near death experience. These dogs are giving us ulcers! Stay away from the light boys! Huero is doing great, by the way, and is almost back to his normal self.
Our next group is looking at some Burgerworld to start, then a couple of swells are forecast for the later part of their trip. We’re hoping for some late season magic!
