Spot guide
Surfing Lance's Right
Lance's Right, also known as HT's or Hollow Trees, breaks off the village of Katiet on Sipora in Indonesia's Mentawai Islands. It is a picture-perfect right-hand reef, with a take-off section called the Office giving way to long, hollow barrels that peel down the reef towards a shallow end section known as the Surgeon's Table.
The wave works on south-west to west swells from about April to October and is at its best between head high and double overhead. Mid to high tide gives more water over the reef, and east to south-easterly winds blow offshore. It is named after Lance Knight, one of the first surfers to ride it, while the HT's name comes from a hollow tree that once stood on the point.
Most surfers arrive by charter boat or stay nearby and paddle out through the channel. The Surgeon's Table has earned its name, so kick out early on the inside at lower tides. It suits advanced to expert surfers.
