After a full day of pumping barrels it came down to the last two minutes of the Rip Curl Cup at Padang Padang. Californian, Chris Ward, needing an 8.50 to win, took off on his last wave and got barrelled to the channel scoring perfect 10's across the board.

After being chaired up the beach and accepting his trophy Ward then bent his knee and popped the question to his unsuspecting girlfriend. She accepted.
