Pitstops - Playgrounds

Pitstops

Pitstops is a fun and highly consistent surf break located in the Playgrounds region of the Mentawai Islands. This playful right-hand reef break is known for its user-friendly nature, making it a favorite for intermediate surfers while still offering plenty of performance potential for advanced riders.

Pitstops produces clean, rippable walls with multiple sections for carving turns, cutbacks, and occasional barrel opportunities on larger swells. Less intimidating than some of the area's more famous waves, it provides an excellent option for surfers looking to improve their skills while enjoying the warm water, tropical scenery, and world-class conditions that make the Mentawais famous.
