Open Thread: Comment Live as the Pipe Invitational in the water on Oahu’s North Shore!

Pro surfing!

The best Hawaiian surfers are back in the water as the Pipeline Invitational gets underway. The top two, I think, get to enter the Pipeline in Memory of Andy Irons likely getting underway tomorrow.

But, anyway, fun and Pipe. What could possibly be wrong with that?

Come for the tubes, stay for the buttery smooth voice of Joseph Turpel.

Taj is a pipe master. Sure the finals day was shit but not the prelims. Back then you ran into Bede or Taj or Parko or Dane in the round of sixteen. Now it’s Conner Coffin or Wade. The tour has no depth now, I’m a big fan of gabby and put him up there with Andy irons but there are only five surfers on tour that are world class.

Look at that spray off the top with the drone footage. I can see why shredders don’t want to leave the islands to go grovel in 2 foot slop on the QS.

Tanner had a well publicized dustup with Brazilian Michael Rodriques last year. Which resulted in him slapping M-Rod’s Açaí bowl to the ground and dishing up a couple cracks. Which then got him kicked out of the Pipe contest. Hope to see more camera footage of this kind of justice this year, ya dog.

Let’s not forget that Jeremy Flores (x2), Kieran Perrow and Bede Durbidge have all won pipe. Even Michel Bourez won it. There is no way these guys are worlds best surfer. Take a look at the trestles ex champs. Essentially a list of the worlds actual best surfers apart from goddam Bede who can you believe it even won trestles once.
