Synopsis[]
Tom and Jerry enter a surf-off, unaware that fellow contestant and lousy surfer Droopy has an identical twin brother named Drippy, who's a master of the waves.
Plot[]
Tom, Jerry and Droopy take part in a surfing competition. During every each round, Droopy keeps changing his swim trunk before riding the waves. The Surfer Announcer declares the winner of the big pile of cash goes to Droopy. Droopy drives the Forklift full of cash aboard onto a yacht driven by his identical twin, Drippy much to everyone's surprise.
Tom wins second place, a lifetime supply of cheese and Jerry gets surf wax as third place much to their disappointment. Disgusted Tom gives Jerry a piece of cheese which he accepts and the cat sits down in a humph as the episode ends.

Trivia[]
