What to bring on your Surf Trip
We present this list in two categories:
- General Items
- Surfboards & Surf Equipment
The list has been created to give you ideas and help you keep
track of items you may or may not need to bring on your next
Mentawai surf adventure.
The key rule of thinking is to pack light. The best rule of
thumb to follow is to keep your board bag under 30 kg (65 lbs) so
you don't get caught having to pay excess baggage fees.
If you have additional questions related to packing for your stay
with us, please send an e-mail to info@mentawairesorts.com
Surfboards & Surf Equipment
Board size is a very personal thing but usually a 'fun' size
board as well as a longer board for bigger days will be
adequate.
We have backup supplies of most gear, but you should try and
bring;
- big wave leg-rope & 2 extra
leg-ropes
- 4 x leg-rope teathers as they tend
to break before your leg-rope does
- 2-3 pair boardshorts

- 2-3 fin sets its a great
opportunity to try some different fins whilst youre here to see how
your board can really perform

guard
- light weight wetsuit (short john)
