The ideal size to surf Bankvaults is head-high to a triple overhead, in any swell. A barrel here is very memorable and will be in your mind forever.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Beng-Beng it’s located only 5 min boat ride from our door\u00a0setp,\u00a0one of the most\u00a0consistent and probably the easiest lefthander wave to surf in the Mentawai. It’s fun for surfers of all ability levels.\u00a0Any type of board works great here.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Burgerworld is considered a good option when swell is flat, there s always something to ride here. Even though it’s not a premiere wave it is a fun alternative when everywhere else isn’t breaking.\u00a0Shortboard or fish are most suitable for this wave.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Hideaways is a world class heavy left that can handle the straight souths wind. Hideaways has the ability to be a sick cavern or offer up a rippable shoulder. \u00a0A slightly bigger board will be the choice for this wave.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Kandui \u00a0is one of the fastest, down the line, left-hand barrels in the world. Kandui is a hollow wave with your only option for survival being finding yourself pumping inside of the best barrel of your life. The bigger the better.\u00a0 Use a mid-size board to help you get to the wave earlier.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Nipussi is a high-performance right that always has waves and is a good alternative when the rest of the islands are flat. It’s known as one of the mellowest waves in the islands. A short board with good volume is the best approach here.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Pit Stops is one of the most high performance waves, with many movie segments being filmed here. Located a few hundred yards away from E-Bay, the wave itself starts breaking over a combination of sand and reef until eventually expiring itself on a beautiful tropical beach. One of the most photogenic waves in the\u00a0Shortboard\/Fish<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Rifles is one of the longest, most perfect, breathtaking \u00a0waves in the world.\u00a0If you catch it good, just one good wave, your trip is a success and your return to Playground Surf Resort will be a routine. Get your fastest fins and board for this wave.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n A Frames or John Candies is very consistent left with two sections to surf, the top and the inside. Can be a bit shifty and require a fair amount of paddling around to find the right area but the inside section is more dependable and offers up a better wall to work with.\u00a0\u00a0Any type of board works great here.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_tab][et_pb_tab title=”FAQs” _builder_version=”4.17.6″ body_font=”||||” body_line_height=”2em” tab_font=”||||” tab_line_height=”2em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” body_line_height_tablet=”2em” body_line_height_phone=”2em” tab_line_height_tablet=”2em” tab_line_height_phone=”2em” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Flights to and from Padang <\/strong> Indonesian Entry Visa<\/strong><\/p>\n Travel insurance <\/strong>![\"Mentawais](\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/05\/381af5_6fb354b711a74844b84cb629adff3691.jpg\")
