For the first time in the Rip Curl Cup Padang Padang event, the women's category was held. No less than the male category, the prizes given were also tempting and were followed by the world's top women's tube rider who competed with Indonesia's best daughters.

One of them is the phenomenal 15-year-old surfer Erin Brooks. This one athlete reached the final in last year's edition and won fourth place while competing against the men's athletes.

"I am very pleased to hear Rip Curl present the first women's competition in Padang Padang," Brooks said.

"This is an extraordinary opportunity for the best female surfers to show their skills in the waves that are amazing in one of my favorite places in the world!" he continued.

The men's and women's competition will be held simultaneously on the same day, when Padang Padang is in its best condition. The men's and women's competition round will be arranged in rotation, with the final of the women's championship scheduled to take place just before the men's final.
