Classic Pipeline

With the help of Google Earth/Maps (Google Earth/Maps) and other modern tools, new, epic breaks are constantly discovered.

Teahupoo is one such example.

While Teahupoo may now be arguably the world's most glamerous wave, I still believe there is a lot of room for the classic spots of yesteryear. Pipeline is one such example.

There is something awesomely unique about this spot that makes it instantly recognisable in any photo and clip.

Toes on the nose

If catching slabbing rights running along a low cliff edge doesn't tickle your fancy, maybe wrapping your toes over the nose of a gentle litle peeler is more your thing?

... As this guy is nicely demonstrating.

Trading places

I'm sure the chap in the foreground is wishing he could trade places with the chap in the background.

Sing like a Canary

Popping up on line was a clip of some sweet surfing on Spain's Canary Islands.

I don't know if this guy's style tickles me so much - it's a bit to 'thrashy' for my liking. Regardless, it's still fun to watch.

So much peaky fun!

Yum, yum, summer fun!

After yesterday's wintry shot, I thought I'd lift the spirits and chuck something summery in.

Warming the cockles of your soul...

Snow white

Somewhere, in the depths of winter, when everything looked bleak, some guy jagged this spectacular wave.

Winter has its pitfalls, but uncrowded waves isn't one of them.
