SurfAid International would like to graciously thank all of the companies and individuals who have donated prizes for our Wave of Compassion fundraiser. We'd especially like to thank Surfline, FUEL TV, Indies Trader Marine Adventures, No Fear, Reef, Jedidiah, Cobian, Wave Riding Vehicles Anarchy Eyewear, Kandui Resort, and Saraina Koat Mentawai personally for their unwavering support, notoriety, and time to make this event a once-in-a-lifetime experience for everyone involved.
Wave of Compassion is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the everyday surfer to make history. Two grand prize-winners will win an all expense paid boat trip with Brad Gerlach, Will Tant. Dane Ward, and Chris Waring on a surf/cultural expedition to the Mentawai Islands and North Sumatra for 10 days. The winners not only get a chance to surf the Mentawais and North Sumatra with four legends for ten days, but they will also have world famous surf explorer Martin Daly guiding the way, with acclaimed videographer Sonny Miller behind the camera for a FUELTV special. The entire trip will also be photographed and covered by an A-List editorial crew from Surfline including acclaimed photographer Aaron Chang who will provide live updates to their audience of over one million surfers strong throughout the duration of your adventure.
Did we mention the trip is on one of the most incredible surf charter boats in existence - the Indies Trader III?
The trip encompasses an upriver visit to a Mentawai village to learn about the Mentawai people and their culture, a look at a traditional Nias cultural celebration, a visit with Dr. Dave Jenkins to witness and participate in Surf Aid's frontline efforts to combat malaria and disease on the islands; an intimate look into the areas directly affected by the recent string of earthquakes and tsunami activity; and of course, we're striving to intermix great surf sessions with four of the best surfers on the planet participating, the most experienced surf charter captain in the world making the calls , and one of the best cinematographers capturing it all.
