Perfect Lineups
0 Perfect Men's Fantasy Lineups: In a decisive victory, Free Carton picked 6 of 8 surfers of the perfect lineup, including Willian Cardoso (nice one). We're five events in and no one has picked the Perfect 8 yet.
15 Perfect Women's Fantasy Lineups: 15 teams all chose the Perfect Lineup for women: Steph, Johanne, Tati, and Nikki. None of these four surfers were part of the perfect lineup at the previous event.
Key Moments
Julian Wilson Fights Barrels with Barrels: Julian Wilson found this gem and flipped the script on Jordy Smith with only 1:40 left in their Quarterfinal heat. Wilson advanced all the way to the Final, earning the highest Fantasy score of any surfer and rewarding the 49.8% of fans who added him to their Fantasy teams.
