MENTAWAI LONGBOARD IMMERSION

Explore Mentawai with us for a longboard immersion where you’ll live and breathe longboarding.

WHERE: Playground Surf Resort
WHEN: 25th April to 05th May

You’ll wake up in paradise, surf dreamy waves every day, deepen your longboard technique with two experienced longboarders, make new surf sisters for life, and completely forget what day of the week it is. 

We’ll build confidence and presence in and out of the water, supporting each other through every paddle out. No pressure, no ego… just women connecting, cruising, and immersing themselves in surfing, travel, and real connections. 🤍

And yes — we’ll call the “last wave” at least ten times.
