The Padang Cup has always been one of the few contests that we can get behind. The dudes who come out to go left and get tubed at one of our favorite waves are always a perfect mix of local standouts and global superheros like Bruce Irons, Mason Ho and Damien Hobgood and more. The waves this year were flawless and everyone got really tubed. Our very own Nate Lawrence was front row of course and is probably still celebrating with Mega Semadhi right now. Mega beat out Damien Hobgood, Mason Ho and Clay Marzo in the final.

Which lends for good reading, especially when you line it up with the results you see below. Quinn wrote this and…
