Anthony Ruffo was born and raised on the west side of Santa Cruz, CA. He is regarded as one of the "Godfathers" of the infamous Westsiders surf brotherhood. This famous group of surfers put Santa Cruz on the surfing map. Ruffo rose to surfing fame as the first champion of the Coldwater Classic in 1985 and still to this day continues to surf at a professional level. With the success came partying, with partying came addiction, and with addiction came consequences. Anthony is currently facing a potential five-year prison term for alleged distribution of methamphetamine. His court date is May 9th, 2011. Written by RM See less
