Lakey Peak in Sumbawa to Host Rip Curl GromSearch #3 on April 10th

The next destination for the ever-GromSearching Rip Curl team is world famous Lakey Peak on the island of Sumbawa.  Lakey Peak is already famous for producing some of Indonesia’s best surfers due to its perfect right and left peak as well as Lakey Pipe, Periscopes and other nearby surfbreaks, so it’s a given that the action will be fast and furious when the GromSearch hits town on April 10^th.

Lakey’s consistency, power, and variety was the training ground for Rip Curl’s wunderkind Oney Anwar, as well as big wave charger and colorful personality Dedi “Gun” Satriadin.  Among the hottlest young groms in Lakey is Oney’s little brother Andre, who may be small in stature but he has the heart of a lion and will be a force to be reckoned with in the upcoming event.
The Rip Curl GromSearch Team will be heading over the Lakey Peak a few days early to take advantage of a promising swell forecast, with special guest Bruno Santos hopping on board.  The groms will get a real treat and no doubt pick up some good surfing tips from Bruno, which will make the entire event something to remember.
“It’s always great to to Lakey Peak because the waves are so good, and going there with the GromSearch crew to surf and help out at the comp will make it even better. I’m really excited about it,” said Santos.
The winner and the runner up in the Under 16 year old division of each 2011 Rip Curl GromSearch will receive an all expense paid trip to compete in the GromSearch National Finals in October at Kuta Beach in Bali.  A great adventure awaits those lucky groms on what just may be their first trip ever to Bali, with a week-long Grom Training Camp and then the full-on challenge of surfing against their peers at Kuta Beach and the chance to become Indonesia’s 2011 Rip Curl GromSearch Champion.
The grand prize for the 2011 National Final’s Champion at Kuta Beach is a trip to Australia in 2012 to compete in the Rip Curl GromSearch World Final that is held each year at Bells Beach, truly a great honor and a great reward for the best Indonesian grom of 2011.
There is no entrance fee for participation in Rip Curl GromSearch events, and all contestants receive a Rip Curl goody bag and Rip Curl T-shirt. They are also given instructions on environmental awareness as well as the chance to participate in interesting non-surfing games during the day.

Coca-Cola ISC Tour Adds Mentawai Surfing Competition to 2011 Schedule of Events

31 March 2011, Kuta-Bali:  The Coca-Cola Indonesian Surfing Championship Tour is delighted to announce the addition of the Mentawai Surf Competition 2011 to this year’s ISC Tour calendar.  The event will be held from the 22^nd-26^th of June in North Sipora at the surf breaks known as Telescopes and Ice Land.  Initiated and sponsored by the Mentawai Islands Department of Culture, Tourism, Youth, and Sports, this will be the first ever 6-star ISC event to be held in the Mentawai Islands, which are known throughout the world as THE Mecca of surfing.

Coca-Cola ISC Tour CEO Tipi Jabrik couldn’t be happier with this last minute addition to the 2011 tour season, stating “Every surfer’s dream is to go to the Mentawai Islands, and now we get to bring the best surfers in Indonesia to compete there as part of our Indonesia Surfing Championship circuit. We are all very excited about the event for many reasons, not only for the surfing contest itself but because it is proof of our progress in growing the sport of surfing in Indonesia.  The waves of Indonesia are one of the biggest natural resources we have, and its rewarding to see that the more and more of the provincial governments of Indonesia are beginning to recognize this fact and help us in our efforts.”

The 6 star ISC surfing competition will include three divisions, Open, Masters, and Womens, with a total prize purse of over Rp 60 million and will take place over a five day period in order to ensure that the surfers get to compete when the waves conditions are the most optimum.

The Mentawai Islands were hit with an earthquake and tsunami back in October of 2010, which though it didn’t have a lasting effect on the surfing scene there, it did have a serious effect on thousands of the Mentawai people.  The Mentawai Surfing Competition 2011 is part of the provincial government’s efforts to both sustain the growth of surf tourism and to develop the islands for cultural and eco-friendly tourism.  According to Ibu Desti, “We are pleased to launch this surfing competition with the help of the ISC, not only to promote surf tourism and to rebuild the image of the area after the earthquake but also to promote the people of the islands themselves. They are known to be one of the world’s most fascinating and best preserved indigenous cultures, making the Mentawais an exclusively unique travel destination.”

So it looks like the ISC surfers and crew will not only be surfing and competing in the world-class waves of the Mentawais, they will also be seeing a new culture, meeting new people, and gaining new and valuable life experiences in this beautiful part of Indonesia.

Look for more detailed information in the coming weeks via email and on www.isctour.com
