Answer 5

Male:

Mick Fanning

-Mick came to be the world tour victor in a tough year. Not to long after his brother Sean died and he had some serious knee surgury, as well as having Slater on the tour with the speculation that if he didn't win he would retire. That's a lot of pressure for Mick and he pulled out the title.

Taj Burrow

-An innovator in the air and barrels, Taj has done it all including making some kick *** movies. He hasn't had his time yet, but he will win a title soon.

Joel Parkinson

-When he was 18, he won the Billabong Pro as a wildcard, making him the youngest to do so. He's been on the tour since 2001, and has an unmatchable style.

Mark Occhilupo

-What more can you say about this guy? He's done it all. Until this year he's been on the world tour for 15 years, winning it at age 33 and still a tough competitor to guys half his age. In my opinion, he's probably one of the best surfers ever.

Wayne "Rabbit" Bartholomew

-Rabbit grew up around the fabled pointbreaks of Australia’s Gold Coast with legends Michael “MP” Peterson and Peter “PT” Townend (who should also be on this list) as sparring partners. He did for barrells what Tom Curren did for shortboards. Now, he's head of the ASP and still rips, at age 52.

Tom Carroll

-Back to back ASP world tour champ in the early 80's, the first goofy footer to take the title (that alone qualifies him in my book).

Female:

Stephanie Gilmore

-Definately one to watch. She blew up last year and killed the competition on tour, and you can be she'll do it again.

Layne Beachley

-I don't know much about her. Then again, women's surfing is like the WNBA to me, why bother?
