What separates the recent TransWorld SURF/Red Bull super trip from your ordinary Indo boat trip? About 70 feet—which is how much bigger the Indies Trader IV is than any other boat out there. Packed to the gills with 13 of the world’s best surfers, the Indies IV and it’s talent laden Red Bull crew just got back from a Mentawai score fest of epic proportions! Enjoy the sneak peek—there’s plenty more on the way! All photos Brian Bielmann/SPL.

even with young Sally starting to show some womanly curves, that’s a boat I wouldn’t want rocking up on my trip to Indo…

Props to Red Bull for stepping into the surf industry and setting up a trip like this. Surfing needs Red Bull - the waves they got look incredible.

big ups to red bull - its good to see a trip aimed exclusively at progressing the level of surfing and transcending any individual sponsorship deals.

theyve had a rough run with this ridiculous coke scandal in Asia, so good to see something go their way

Where´s the f..king photo of Tiago Pires he does better tube riding then most of the crue that was portraited. For you mag people a junior kid of San Clemente is more important then a 45 WCT surfer like Tiago. TWS will never be a world wide magazine. At least you should have pictured 1 photo of everyone. Your criteria SUCKS!!!!

Simmer down Helder, I think Tiago hurt his shoulder on the trip as I saw a photo of Tiago in a sling. And don’t worry, we have plenty more photos and I’m sure your boy will get some love.
