world. The contest will be judged by input from the best Press and windsurf experts. The
top ten nominations from each category will be announced on July 15th 2016, and the

The Awards will be located at www.windsurfawards.com and will be judged in the
following categories:
Biggest Wave – Photo Only
Best Jump – Video
Best Wave Ride – Video
Best Trick – Video
Best Wipe Out – Video
Women’s Overall Performance Awards – Video
We will present these maneuvers in an easy to view and compare format and will
notify all subscribers as soon as an entry is accepted.
Prize money for the event is currently $2000 per category ($1000 for the
Women’s Overall Performance Award). Videographers and Photographers get $500
for each winning clip/photo.
Rich Foster from Indiconic says: ”We are stoked to be able to showcase this
amazing sport in this way. The Windsurf Awards will take the viewer all over the
world – from the heaviest of waves ridden to the craziest freestyle tricks on the flattest
water. It’s going to be a great adventure.”
Our goal is to promote the sport not just within our current participants but also
bring in new people to the sport. We are hoping that all riders be promoting their
fellow rider’s maneuvers as well.

EVENT FORMAT:
The Indiconic Windsurf Awards are divided up into 5 categories:
Biggest Wave – Judged by a photo to be deemed the biggest completed ride on a
wave.
Wave of the Year – Judged by a video deemed to be the most committed, radical
and stylish ride consisting of two or more completed maneuvers in the most critical
section of the wave on the wave (A bottom turn does not count as a maneuver but
will be taken into consideration for overall style).
Best Jump – Judged by video to be the most radical, committed completed jump (A
completed jump means a landed jump with no water starting allowed after the
maneuver).
Best Trick – Judged by video entry to be the most radical, committed landed trick.
(A completed trick means a landed jump with no water starting allowed after the
maneuver). The trick can only be completed on flat water or wind chop (No tricks
performed off a ground swell will be allowed.)
Best Wipe Out – Judged by video entry to be the most radical crash.
The invited riders will submit a video based move/waveride that they deem worthy
of a submission and upload the video with all the relevant information (See Rules)
