Where is Sancho? // Kandui - video

It's not much of a guessing game when the answer is given away in the title, but then maybe you've spent the last four months wondering just where Benjamin Sanchis has been hiding?

In that case, wonder no more. Here's six minutes of Sancho from the northern Mentawais set to some questionable music. Not saying the music itself is bad, just it's pairing with modern surfing is, well, questionable.

While I've got my pedants hat on I'll question the editing too. Fella spends a few minutes surfing a  flat-faced right (Four Bobs?) when the real bizness starts at 3:00 around the corner.

Stunning watershots.

Kinda zoned out of the music focussing on those beautiful waves.

It's mainly Rifles. Good spot this one with a variety of breaks nearby.

I am saying the music is bad. Great waves but.

Hows the barrel at 5:27

Love those front on shots of rifles it's almost like Kirra over reef, it's also cool how you can see the Islands of Sipora (Telescopes area) in the background.

his boards are quite flat hey. wouldn't think that would be the go in waves like that for a surfer of his caliber.
