On the last day of the EFPT Engadinwind Tow-in event it was all about expression. Tricks for cash, a highly popular format amongst spectators, releases the judges from their classic scoring system and sets them up on a boat with a 1000 euros worth of bills on hand. The only thing the riders have to do is to impress the judges so much that they will want to make it rain on them. The result? A plethora of rare tow-in moves on a morning that the Silvaplana crowd is sure to remember well. In the end the judges had to pick up the biggest tab for Sam Esteve (JP/NeilPryde) who got a 100 euros for a massive double air rotation. To close off the show it was time for Yentel Caers to put his money where his mouth is after he was talking about the double cannonball all throughout the event. A mishap on the first run granted him another go and soon we saw the Belgian going double or nothing through the air.

Well, that was a weird ride. Though it hasn’t been easy, at least when we fixed our gaze on the ocean — or favorite place in the world – very little had changed.
From Justine Dupont, Kai Lenny, Lucas Chumbo, and Conor Maguire’s mind-blowing antics at Nazaré, Jaws and Mullaghmore to Carissa Moore, Caroline Marks, Jamie O’Brien, and Kanoa Igarashi’s footwork on the world’s most high-performance waves, we packed it all in here — and then some.
