Who were the strongest XXL swell chasers last year? | Red Bull Big Wave Awards 2021 Nothing is simple in the world right now, but if you're the kind of surfer who chases XXL swells around the planet, then you're used to switching your plans every time the wind and weather change their minds. This year, the World Surf League and Red Bull switched things up a little as well and the 2021 Red Bull Big Wave Awards were the result. Chris Coté and Rosy Hodge were in charge of hosting the live show in Los Angeles, as we shocked our winners with a string of door-knock videos to announce the results. As you can imagine, the surprise nature of the reveal caught a lot of our winners off-guard and led to some genuinely candid moments of emotion. On the ladies side of things Frenchwoman Justine Dupont took home three-quarters of the bacon, claiming Ride Of The Year, Performer Of The Year and the Biggest Tow award for her wave of a lifetime at Jaws. The only trophy left went to Paige Alms, who successfully defended her Biggest Paddle award with yet another Jaws bomb to keep the trophy in Maui. For the men, Kai Lenny reminded us once again that he's built slightly differently and claimed both Performer Of The Year and the Biggest Paddle award. Peter Mel brought the house down, with his incredible Mavericks wave earning him Ride Of The Year, an honour he touchingly dedicated to his recently-passed mother. German heavy water specialist Sebastian Steudtner claimed the Biggest Tow trophy, with yet another Jaws bomb to add to his resume.
