Wahine surfers will invade the beach of Sabang, Baler Aurora this coming October 5-6. 2013. The first ever Philippine Wahine Classic will highlight some of the best female surfers currently in the Philippines, as well as those quickly coming up the ranks. The PWC is also hoping to have special appearances by popular international pro surfers like Mary Osborne (USA), Belinda Baggs (AUS), and Summer Romero (USA).
This first annual all-girls surf event in Baler will be a 2-day surf contest. Approximately 80 contestants are expected to join PWC with the goal of empowering the new, yet strong female sect of surfing enthusiasts.
