The WSL has confirmed that the men's and women's Simelue Pro QS 31 will be held from August 4 to September 1000 on the dream right-handers of Dylan's in Aceh, northwest Sumatra, Indonesia.

The stage adds to the already confirmed events in Nias and Yoyos, in western Sumbawa, and a possible event in Rote and another in East Java, all at level 1000, potentially achieving six historic tournaments on dream waves (the Krui Pro has already been held, which had three days of perfect lefts).

Tipi Jabrik, Chairman of the Asian Surfing Circuit, said: “By hosting events like this and attracting a strong group of male and female surfers, with live streaming to the world, we are raising awareness of Simeulue as a surfing destination, while educating the local community on how to interact with international visitors and encouraging them to provide the kinds of services and goods that visiting surfers need.”

So, these are the confirmed and unconfirmed stages in Indo this year:
-24 to 28 August: Nias Pro
-August 31st to September 4th: Simelue Pro
-September 8 to 12: West Sumbawa Pro
-October 17 to 31: Cimaja Pro
-October 31st November 2nd: Rote Pro
