This is the last WSL (World Surf League) professional (CT) contest of 2017. The Third Jewel of the triple crown of surfing is live now @ http://www.worldsurfleague.com/events/2017/mct/1979/billabong-pipe-masters Results http://www.worldsurfleague.com/events/2017/mct/1979/billabong-pipe-masters/results Today the surf has cleaned-up & the action is very exciting at Pipeline (the left) & Back door (the right). There are some double overhead waves & deep barrels today. Hawaiian time is: 10:37 AM The action starts @ 8 AM Hawaiian time when the conditions are contestable.
What an exciting final that was! John John Florence (HAW) won the World Title, second in a row. Jeremy Flores (FRA) won the Pipe Masters w/ a last few seconds wave he caught & scored a 8.33 to clinch the win. Griffin Colapinto a 19 yo kid down the coast from me (San Clemente, CA) won the Triple Crown w/ the most points in all 3 Hawaii Triple Crown contests surfed this month. Surfing is a very exciting sport to participate in, “Only a surfer knows the feeling”.
