They're rising up all over the Mentawai chain. Land camps, that is. And with mod-cons and speedboat access they're challenging the tourist tugs for the white fella's dollar.

The trip was put together with the help of The Perfect Wave travel company and they surfed around the New Ireland region off the north coast of Papua. The photographs tell the story of the waves the crew scored.
