The command you need is TriangleVertex but for this you need to use the triangle index, not the vertex index. So, to get the 3 verts of a given triangle, you use something like:

v0 = TriangleVertex(surf,tri_index,0)
v1 = TriangleVertex(surf,tri_index,1)
v2 = TriangleVertex(surf,tri_index,2)

Also, maybe this demo I did a ways back might be of interest?
