Pipeline Surf Biggest Day Winter 2014

Pipeline Free Surf 12-13-14. Lapo Coutinho BRA devoured by huge green-eyed monster at 1:32.
With a quickly increasing swell the organizers of the Triple Crown of Surfing called off the Pipe Masters competition for safety reasons. Too wildly inconsistent for the pros but improving soon after for the locals’ free surf session. Many consider this swell to be one of the biggest to grace our shores in years.

Rod Templar says:

Some effing good surfers for sure, but too crowded for my liking.

Miguel Melendez (Angelsky) says:

That day look very intimidating 

Tom Emerson says:

This place is like the Wedge on steroids.

Bobby Droback says:

why cut the end of Jamie O's waves every time? what the fuck. we didn't get to see if he made it or not.

SanFranciscoBay says:

When Pipeline is big like what you see in the video, it's a sight to see in person or on video. If you go there for 2-4 weeks during the winter months of Nov-Feb and follow the surf report, and if it says it's going to be big, go there. It's very impressive. I've seen it in person and I was impressed.

Cole M says:

Holy fuck how do you paddle out unless ur Michael phelps

john b says:

That music was so fitting and i cant understand why

Gregory Louie says:

How do these guys survive the pounding from the surf? I was boogie boarding waves not even a quarter this size and was getting thrown around and slammed into the sand

MrThunder says:

Some amazing rides and bail-outs in there…the music could not have been more perfect! Beautiful  sport and what a crazy day…

Tom Adams says:

Love this version of Cashmier .

Vlaid65 says:

It just never got good.  Trade wind was wrecking the faces and the swell never quite hit the reef right.  Another 5 to 10 degrees and the swell would have been hitting well enough to overcome the contrary wind and to carry all the way from the outer reef through the inside.

sona jackson says:

I played this song for orchestra once 🙂 

Rodrigo Tavares says:

Pipeline was impressive when I was a teenager in the 80s. Nowadays it pales in comparison to Jaws, Chopu and other classic spots. Even Waimea. Hawaii is no more the haven of surf for many years / decades now. 

MrThunder says:

Phenomenal day! Great shots – some of the best ever of Pipeline!
