Unheralded German surfer Sebastian Steudtner with his check for the biggest tow-in of the year. Yep, the same guy that Christian Fletcher said, "Learn to paddle," after butchering his name while on stage with thousands watching. Nice... Photo: Mimi
Grant "Twiggy" Baker with his massive check for riding an equally massive wave. Congrats Twiggy, if there was anyone who deserves this honor (and cash!) it's you—truly a class act. Photo: Steindler
