Sponsorship for the women's component of the event is to be determined, but its addition to the tour in 2014 has been significantly supported by the Hurley Pro at Trestles.
“It's been a very productive process working with new management at the ASP as well as California State Parks to get the permits necessary to add the women's component next season,†Pat O'Connell, Hurley's VP of Marketing said. “Trestles is a tremendously rippable wave and I think the world's best female surfers are going to really turn heads out there next year.â€
