Pro Junior title, Lakey Peterson (Santa Barbara, CA) rose above the field of top surfers in
Oceanside, California today to win the 4th Annual Supergirl Pro Junior. Sixteen of the

the Circuit, with Lakey Peterson claiming the $2,500 top prize. Malia Manuel (Wailua, HI),
Leila Hurst (Kilauea, HI) and Nagé Melamed (Hanalei, HI) rounded off the top competitors in

2. Malia Manuel 12.23 points
3. Leila Hurst 9.83 points

“It’s such a great contest,” said winner Lakey Peterson as she showed off her coveted pink
Supergirl cape. “I want to thank ASA and Warner Bros. for putting on such a great, well-run
event. It’s a nice way to end the year by winning the only 6-Star Junior contest.”

The only 6-Star ASP Pro Junior contest in North America, the Supergirl Pro Junior is the first
event in the 2011 Supergirl Jam— the action sports industry’s only large-scale, all-female
competition and lifestyle event series. The series, designed to promote female
empowerment, strength and independence, closes its 2011 run August 21, where the top
female athletes in skateboarding and snowboarding will compete in Venice Beach.

Peterson started strong in the finals with a 6.33 and a 7.67, then improved with a 7.87 to
edge out Malia Manuel and take a commanding lead to win the event. Melamed, who was a
wild card as a rookie at Supergirl Pro Junior, earned her stripes claiming fourth, just behind the Supergirl vets that took first through third.

“I just want to congratulate Lakey. She surfed really well,” said Malia Manuel who took
second. “I’m just happy to be here. It’s a very prestigious contest, the only 6-Star Junior
event for the girls— with the largest prize purse and a great opportunity to earn valuable
points for the World Tour.”

The next stop in the series is the Supergirl Jam in Venice Beach, California, on August 21
beginning at noon. This event will include a Snowboard Rail Jam featuring a 28-foot tall
man-made mountain where 80,000 pounds of REAL snow will be packed and ready for the
ladies to bring their winter slope style to the beach! The Supergirl skateboard jam will
feature both pro and amateur street competitions with the world’s top female skaters on a
custom-built course. For the first time in Supergirl Jam history, the Am-Jam contest will be
hosted on the pro course and the top amateurs will advance to get a shot at competing
alongside the pros.

The Supergirl Jam series will be broadcast nationally in October via three hours of coverage
on FOX Sports Net (FSN) and five hours of coverage on FUEL TV.  For more detailed
