『DAY6』 Mentawai Board Trip
When I woke up this morning, the boat had arrived in front of a point called Greenbush.
Unfortunately, the weather was bad that day, with light rain and cloudy skies. The waves were not very good and the swell was twisting, causing the section to close out.
The conditions for good waves at this Green Bush are strict,
Apparently it's a difficult spot to catch the waves.
The waves go straight through the tube after the left takeoff, making it easy to film, so this spot is often featured in overseas surf DVDs.
We gave up on Greenbush and headed for Macaroni.
It's about an hour and a half to get to Macaroni.
There were three other boats at Macaroni so it was a little crowded, it was cloudy and the waves were a little choppy, but we decided to go surfing.
As time passed, the wave quality began to improve and the usual macaroni waves appeared.
The waves were head-high. (Using Placebo ROCKET 5'5")
The tide went out and the waves got smaller for a while, but as the tide started to move again, the size of the fish gradually increased and the typical macaroni sets that doubled up began to come in, so filming began.
This time, I was able to take a lot of photos at the left wave point, so I will do it again tomorrow.
We decided to aim for HT (Lance's Right), a light break that represents the Mentawai.
