Electric blue tubes of Lance’s (aka Htees) Electric blue tubes of Lance’s (aka Htees) No. 31845 Buy

Lances 21st June 2012

If you ever make your way to this part of the world I am pretty sure you’ll see Lance’s left or right. All boats stop by here for a day or so…kinda like tourist attraction No.1 for the Mentawais. It’s the one of the world’s best rights, machined to perfection offering a high performance tube for very experienced surfers only. If you take off on the top peak you have no option but to test your nerves and pull into a fast moving hollow tube before exiting on the surgeon’s table (shallow reef at the end). At low tide it’s a lethal place…one wrong move and you could be begging for mercy on the exposed reef as an 8 foot set approaches. If you’d been here – you’ll know what I mean.

The left ain’t too bad either, a little less intense…

    hey Uge,

    I am wondering if it’s possible to stay in the Mentawais with my young family for a month or two? Is it safe enough to travel with a 2 year old? What about accommodation for this long, is it economical?

    Hi Uge,
    I always love your surf reports – I can’t surf and I’m in the UK so I can’t “use” the surf news, but your shots remind me of good times in Australia and I’ve kept up my subscription for YEARS now! Whether you’re home or away, you always capture some amazing moments, so when I saw this selection from the Royal Geographical Society’s travel photography competition, I thought of you. I know you might have already seen them, but I just thought you would like them – hope you do!
