Leonardo Fioravanti’s first-ever trip to the Mentawai’s. It's safe to say he will be returning to the Mentawai’s again. Leonardo is one of the most impressive surfers I have seen out here.

In addition to being able to surf some of the best waves in the world, the ability to meet the most incredible people from around the globe, and capture their memorable moments is the most satisfying and fulfilling occupation someone can have. These images are capture by myself and Dave Mathew from one of the best seasons in history at Kandui Resort. Back to back swells, thin crowds and perfect weather. What more could you want on a surf trip?
