Brazilian small wave wiz, Filipe Toledo, put down a nearly perfect 9.70 mid-way through his Round One heat (one judge even gave it a 10). But, the world No. 8 had only just begun to lay the foundation for the day's highest heat total. In the dying moments, Toledo spun on a milky inside runner that stood up on the reef with a steep, smooth wall. The result? Round One's sole perfect score.
