Vans needs to drop the pipeline masters or drop the corporate ppl using it as vaca that know nothing about the sport… leaving out that many high level locals is embarrassing 🤡🤦🏻♂️
This is the last year Vans is going to do this contest, too bad the event is a shell of what it used to be. The field definitely needs to be expanded so more locals can get the call up. The WSL is to blame more than Vans
Few trolls in the comments, keep going brother, great content. You didnt paddle out because your getting wiser, no shame in that. Enjoy the winter swell it looking good!
Kai acts like he can’t surf the little waves 😂😂 “I’ll sit out back and wait for a ginormous one i can paddle into and feel at home” leave the little shore break on first reef for Koa 😂😂😂
i totally understand that there are so many amazing locals that should be in the pipe contest. However coming from an East Coast surfer i am stoked to see our guy Cam Richards in the field!
I think the pipeline masters should be a mostly local to Hawaii event with a couple select outsiders invited. Plenty of local pipe chargers should be able to win the local break masters contest that’s no longer a tour wave.
I’m just settling in from work and getting ready to enjoy this kick a$$ video starring Mr Leonard of all people! 😂 so glad he joins you guys now when possible! Pipe is so epic at this time of year! I love it!
I grew up surfing in the early 70's in Ventuta California. We would go to what's called the Womens Center off Foothill road and watch the early movies, 5 Summer Stories and such watching Gerry and Rory ripping Pipeline. It's insane seeing how this sport has grown with the video technology. Surfing with 10 year old Davey Miller and Brad Linscheid, Les Wong an others. Those were some fun days of my youth! And I shouldn't forget to give a shout out to Steve Huerta!
Love how at 8:23 Koa feels like he has to excuse his performance on the big day, even at his level he gets shamed for not performing in big waves after all the things he’s done over the years. It never stops.
It's hard when you have a brand solely around surfing big motherfuckin waves. The level of external pressure is real, but there's no time that one can fully recover from such an injury like he had at pipe. He's doing amazing!
@montannavaccari1131 hes also just not the same calibre as for example the 2 florence bro's, kai, JOB, etc. But he wants to be seen as someone that good, so it bums him out and he tries to hide it. Certified psychologist here. Shakabra
Actually dug that perspective from Off The Wall, you were smackin' lips. I'm 120 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico making sure we have oil for the machine, haven't surfed in 6 years. I live through all you guys' vids.
I have to think those that enjoy watching death defying wipeouts anywhere, let alone Pipe, have never been in one. Ty guys, for letting me reminisce, when I was seemingly immortal. ❤🏄
1st, use the squid lid PLEASE! 2nd, a lot of dudes got drilled by the curtain closing in fast! Pretty dang lumpy out there. As a goofy switch foot, growing up in San Diego, was a blast. I learned how to switch foot from Larry Gordon and Buzzy Trent while surfing with Ivan (his son) in the late 80’s.
I have nothing to say about the Pipe Masters...except that it's run by a bunch of kooks 😆 But honestly, when you do that sort of business, the Hawaiian elders should really be involved....when it comes to any of the land or ocean out there, they should always be involved.
Run a pro am or wild card round or whatever,give the entire openning and elimination round to non seaded guys.Then round 3 starts against the invites.ALL previous winners get an invite .
I'm not one to tell a young man his business, but I was glad to see some leadership wearing a helmet. I myself don't wear a bike helmet, but that's a completely different level of risk.
I think it really depends on where you bike and your skill level. If you bike around cars, way more dangerous imho. Slow bike paths only, yeah, not dangerous really. MTB, depends what you're doing and your skill level. If you always bike, ski or surf well within your abilities, a helmet is not that important. Pushing your abilities, a helmet is valuable. Mix in other people, especially driving cars and trucks and it is a whole other level.
I think it should be a rule you must weigh 200 before flexing the "Gold's" shirt! Love the show! Much love to the Rothman family! Don't snake any of them! I hear you take a boat ride off the island!
I personally love the van's pipemasters! It gives other's, especially the underground locals an opportunity to compete at pipe and build a legacy. It's cool to watch, always sick commentary and love the format.
Clearly the sand hasn't gotten washed away yet - neither pipe or backdoor looks right yet. Gonna be a few weeks or a few swells before it all gets right again. That's the way the winter works on the North Shore
Kai switching stance on waves like that... nutz! 🤙
He’s a windsurfer. Used to going both ways.
@@gatesurfer He's actually 'bi'..... and used to going both ways !
Vans needs to drop the pipeline masters or drop the corporate ppl using it as vaca that know nothing about the sport… leaving out that many high level locals is embarrassing 🤡🤦🏻♂️
Why don't you start a company and show them how it's done
@@michaellaskey7209 why do clowns defend companies bad decisions, bro they dont know you
Koa, VA Beach want you to defend your title Bradda

It’s ALL about the Benjamin’s dude, it would bankrupt some of the medium sized corps.
Ivan Florence had the best wave, way he pulled in was sick, mad style.
All I can say is that every winter you guys that live in Hawaii are blessed.
Living on the Gold Coast is a blessing too,,, consistency and quality matters
We are all blessed living by the ocean wherever you are
@@jk9300111 Not if you're in Switzerland !
@@adambane1719 ja indeed
Koa always chilln.
Start a new comp sponsored by Florence and stream it on youtube

chicken joe as commentator
The legend of Chicken Joe!@@pumkin0
Awesome shots Koa! Amazing edits too! Love the channel bud!! 🤟
Drone operator deserves a raise 🙌🏽🔥
I love how real your vlogs are Koa. I find myself drawen to this content more than the pro tour stuff or big brand content. This is wayy better.
Few trolls in the comments, keep going brother, great content. You didnt paddle out because your getting wiser, no shame in that. Enjoy the winter swell it looking good!
Kai acts like he can’t surf the little waves 😂😂 “I’ll sit out back and wait for a ginormous one i can paddle into and feel at home” leave the little shore break on first reef for Koa 😂😂😂
Damn Jamie burning goofy footer with no helmet so bad at 0:35.. damn
its what he does best. I unsubbed from his channel a while ago, a true kook
Gavin Beschen Wave of tha Winter! WOW ! That was sick!
Love the '80' airbrush on your board. Classic!!! Are you invited to the Eddie? Great footage of Pipe Koa and Jack!!! 👍 😊
That was SICK! Thanks Koa and Jack! Also, epic fashion on Kai, living for it!!!
that wave with mike stewart broke the internet
kai not using a tail pad is the coolest shit ever
Stewart & JOB wave of the year
@@tjtoobsKai switching his stance as he is sliding the face of a monster pipe wave is impressive as well.
😂the guy at the end landing his drone on the "helipad"
Love how Koa is ALL IN once his guy commits! Just like me and my broski. Charge Fellas!!!
No credit to Mike for that barrel ride with Jamie. 100% 👎
Came here to say this. You guys are fucking lame!
When Koa puts the black shorts on he just can't resist going off lol
good job young man. im a total fan, keep it up .
Love this video and teaching youngens to read when to and when not.. nice work bro!
And you are goofy
I love JOB and all but why did u not mention the fact he totally snaked someone? Who was it? I’m all for equal rights mang
i totally understand that there are so many amazing locals that should be in the pipe contest. However coming from an East Coast surfer i am stoked to see our guy Cam Richards in the field!
Thanks for more stoke. Love finding the super-mysto secret sandbar. Got to love those hotel webcams for wave recon.
Switch stance was hella rad
That 80's spray board has served you well.
As far as the Pipe Masters, I think Jamie and others have said enough.
Epic!! Kai could be in next Tron movie! Nice work fellas great edit and filming as usual cheers boys!
Yes, that was Jamie, dropping in on someone, again.
The other guy was too deep
You know da rulez 😂
Kai Lenny's stance switch at 6:23 is nuts!
Love the content. Like the extra you give. Yewww!
I think the pipeline masters should be a mostly local to Hawaii event with a couple select outsiders invited. Plenty of local pipe chargers should be able to win the local break masters contest that’s no longer a tour wave.
They should have at least half the riders be local, if not more. They know the break the best, so that should make for a better contest.
@megacatsupreme466 like 75 percent of the surfers invited are Hawaiian locals
How can you call it Pipe Masters if it's not open to everyone?
Crazy seeing ur videos, you makua and eddie use to stay at my house sometimes in socal
I’m just settling in from work and getting ready to enjoy this kick a$$ video starring Mr Leonard of all people! 😂 so glad he joins you guys now when possible! Pipe is so epic at this time of year! I love it!
When’s the next episode of the pod coming out
The party wave with Jamie and the body boarder was just sick. One of the all time party wave rides. RLTW 3/75
Fellow batt boy here 🤙
Sick edit boys, Mucho respect from SoBe
Mike Stewart, RESPECT !!!

6:27 mark....Super KAi....amazing foot switch
Epic drone landing at the end there

What's the background music track? Sounds like Tom Morello
Turtle isn't scared to thrash those waves! 😂
Pro move not walking to the water with super hero "Super Kush"!
No tag for Mikey?!?! Who on da edits? ;) All love Jack! from Dana Point.
Was gunna say the exact same thing! MS is a freak!
Vans gots to go.. Florence Marine X should run the event. Florence Pipe Masters sounds pretty good? 🤔 let the locals run it!
We need another Uncle Eddie visit🤙🏾
3:20 that was awesome
Kai just switching stance in the barrel 😂
Kai Lenny droppin the Hammah!
Actually dug that perspective from Off The Wall, you were smackin' lips. I'm 120 miles out in the Gulf of Mexico making sure we have oil for the machine, haven't surfed in 6 years. I live through all you guys' vids.
How often do the drones crash into each other out there with so many guys filming themselves?
0:33 best rides of the day 3:15 Pipeline Master
SICK VID, DUDE !! XD
Big big big time loving it ❤❤❤
Kai is still humble and chill..... unless its all an act. Hes the Travis pestrana of surfing
Comp between all the ones “too old?” for the mentioned event?
I like the ones with the barrels That just close up together From Either side
Young uncle Ivan showing how it’s done!
For your sinus try nz manuka nasal spray brah works good
I have to think those that enjoy watching death defying wipeouts anywhere, let alone Pipe, have never been in one. Ty guys, for letting me reminisce, when I was seemingly immortal. ❤🏄
Kai Lenny looked like Captain America
Shout out to your moms products, purchase a bunch I think last year or so and gave them as gifts. Loved them!
Music is on point...
What a day🍍🌊🤙 It's good to see all the crew getting ready for another winter season this is
living with ALOHA SPIRIT

Legal brooo ..irado seu canal no TH-cam...um salve aki do sul do Brasil. BC . SC.
Being called Master by the one and only Kai.
Kai Lenny likely paddle out with his small wave board. Having a good time. Giggling.
3:15 JOB and that bodyboarder sharing a barrel was awesome... then JOB gets fucking smacked
That bodyboarder is the living legend Mike Stewart!!
@@josewerleman3794who is Job?

Happy days 😀 🤙
6:13-6:19, the dude is so fast that hes almost going backwards,
Awesome
@ 0:33 Jaimie Obrien snaking yet again. Stay classy JOB, hope you got the shot for your VLOG...
Awesome.
Kai Lenny switching stance right in the middle of a pipe barrel. Pretty impressive. Not very deep, but still.
16:06 sticks the landing
What’s the safest way to bail at Pipe when the wave’s gonna clamp on you?
live stream pipe masters sponsored by this is livin
You just surf safely bro. Don't worry about the competitions. Leave that for jamie.
Dude Jamie catching up to that boogie board in the tube was such a legend move 🤙🏽
To everyone who just got pounded: I bet you were wishing you were riding desk like Mr. Bonefish Boards. (Yeah, I'm a bit jealous.)

W0W!
When you regularly have to tell us you are not complaining or whining..........
Is that Kelly at 2:54?
Who is job and Mike Stewart. C'mon dude why you not acknowledge Mike?
