After a few days of small playful surf the real deal Pipeline came alive on Friday. After talking it over with Jeff and Skipp it was quite possibly the best Pipe we've seen in a few years. There was a lot of Big heavy wash through sets that would close out the whole break. It was pretty hairy and Skipp and I got caught inside like 10 times!"

Skipp's looking to fly back to Oahu as the Backdoor Shootout contest is over and it's back to work for Skipp at the Pipeline!



	1.12.08 Thursday on the North Shore was EPIC for towing the outer reefs. Here's a frame grab of Thursday afternoon's tow session with Nelz and Lanson Ronquilio on one of the secret outer reefs. this afternoon the swell consistently pumped out solid 15' hawaiian size waves!

	1.11.08 It's not often, infact very rarely does Surfline throws down the term EPIC, but indeed Thursday was EPIC for the North Shore of Oahu.

	1.10.08 Finally opening day for legit 8-10' Pipeline but unfortunately also the start of the Da Hui's Backdoor Shootout contest. a little window early morning let some of the boys get some waves before it started.. contest ended up getting halted mid day as the waves just got too big for Pipe Happy Z launching BIG on his new signature model, Da Hapz 42!

	1.7.08 The North Shore could be waking up from it's 3 week sleep and he's taken notice. Ross is headed back to Hawaii this week for the new run of swells. The Eastern Pacific has been very quite this time of year and Hawaii has had mostly zonal (small windswell) patterns. Ross is hoping for some OTW wall action like this pic above. It's gotta start sometime... right..?

	12.30.07 Crosstraining is what Ross has been doing back in San Diego. "The surf has been pretty small so I've been doing alot of Stand Up Paddle boarding. It's a really good work out that engages your core muscles, legs, arms and mind. It keeps you in to water too because it can be dead flat and you can still have a blast riding 1 foot junk. I highly recommend it." said Ross



	12.29.07 Bodyboard season at Pipeline has finally arrived! "a full under the radar WNW swell, strong offshores and wedgy drainers made it hard for the fiberglass standups so we just took over some really fun Pipe, ahhh it feels so good to get PITTED!" says Skipp



	12.28.07 Bodyboarding fans, meet Bud Miyamoto backside DK skills! JHubb says Bud is hands down the best DK rider in the world right now and he can pull DK airs and DK rodeo flips on command! and that's some beeg props coming from the 2007 world champ who travels the globe and exposed to the best talents worldwide.



	12.27.07 Ross comes to Hawaii for one reason, PIPELINE. and with one of the worst starts of the winter seasons in history Ross opted for the EJECT button and bailed back to California to spend the holidays with his family. a few days ago he headed south across the border and scored some EPIC winter Baja Mex waves and called LMNOP headquarters to rub it all in... Be careful and travel during daylight hours if you head down into Baja.



	12.25.07 Happy Holidays everyone! the E team represented well in Maui! Da Kine Bud owned it, Skippy guy just missed the finals but ended up 2nd overall in the National Tour behind JHubb, and Da Hapz was just edged out of the semis and finished off 9th. Mahalos to the Maui crew, Bitzer for a great contest, and Beeg Todd for all da help! A Hui Hou till next year!

	10.10.07::.

Stage 3 is all black 15x7 inch modular wheels and limo tinted windows before he ships the North Shore beast to Hawaii for it's final home. look for Skipp's truck to be a regular fixture in the Ehukai parking lot this winter!



	9.26.07::.

	9.10.07::. The 3rd Annual NYBB Pro went down on Sunday, Sept 9th, 2007 at Lido beach in Hempstead, NY. The international field of riders battled it out in the tough and small 2-3ft conditions. It was an all Hawaiian showing in the finals with close friends Skipp and Hubb going wave for wave til the end. it was ultimately Jeff's day, but we want to congradulate our boy Skipp for taking home 2nd place!! Not too bad for a guy who gets paid to surf only one wave in the world, ...the PIPELINE !

	8.20.07::. We checked in with our Brazilian team rider Renan Faccini and he said he got some fun waves recently. he said "there was a swell coming, so we woke up early to check out the reefs and we found a sick left so we got our cameras and the waves were really fun for an hour before the winds came up and messed it up, we got a swell coming next week so we might have some good waves up here in Sao Paulo!"



	8.19.07::. Just a North Shore preview of what's to come this winter. Here is our Hawaiian Fly boy, Happy Z!
