North Shore, Oahu, HAWAII - (Friday, Nov. 15, 2013) Brad Gerlach (USA) fourth placegetter and Michael Ho (HAW) who finished 3rd in the Clash of the Legends.--  The REEF Hawaiian Pro is the first stop of the $960,000 Vans Triple Crown of Surfing.<br /> The contest has until November 23 to run four full days of competition where 128 of the world's best surfers will compete for critical ASP Prime points and a share of $250,000 prize money. The winner of this event will take home $40,000 and an early lead on the 2013 Vans Triple Crown series ratings. <br /> <br /> A bad day turned good for 6-time Vans Triple Crown champion Sunny Garcia (HAW) today, bowing out of the main event but getting the better of a fun reunion with three other legends of the sport to win the exhibition REEF Clash of the Legends. The $10,000 first prize definitely helped to lift his mood. His former tour traveling partner Kaipo Jaquias (HAW) was second; Michael Ho (HAW) was third; and California's Brad Gerlach (USA) was fourth. This was Garcia's second &quot;Clash&quot; title.Photo: joliphotos.com
