SAN FRANCISCO - Ricky Sinz has been named Raging Stallion Studios' 2008 Man of the Year.
"After his performance in To the Last Man, the choice of Ricky for our top prize was pretty easy," said RS president Chris Ward. "He delivered the best porn performance of any actor I have ever witnessed. He is a good man, and we all look forward to working with him over the next year."
Sinz said he was thrilled to be named the successor to past winners including Jake Deckard, Tom Vacarro, Steve Cruz, Roman Ragazzi, Shane Rollins and Michael Brandon.
"This is really amazing," he said. "I never thought I would come so far so fast. I really appreciate the faith that Chris Ward has in my career."
A tattooed former Marine who also found success as a mixed martial arts fighter prior to entering the adult entertainment industry, Sinz holds the only Raging Stallion lifetime exclusive contract.
Ward presented Sinz with the award at a star-studded private party during Folsom Street Fair. According to a prepared statement released by the company, "Chi Chi LaRue was the DJ and heads of nearly every major studio were in attendance. Hundreds of porn stars from every company in San Francisco could be spotted in the crowd, and the line to get into the event stretched several blocks at one point."
Raging Stallion stars who attended the event included Steve Cruz, Jake Deckard, Antton Harri, RJ Danvers, Jay Black, Logan McCree, Vinnie D'Angelo, Tristan Jaxx, Damian Rios, Scott Tanner, Antonio Biaggi, Manuel DeBoxer, Bo Matthews and Mike Dreyden.
