2013 Volcom Pipe Pro – Day One

Today, Pipeline wasn’t very friendly for opening day of the 2013 Volcom Pipe Pro. The sky was black, the water even darker, the wind was chilly and the swell is shifting. Would y’want it any other way? Ominous is exciting! Especially with $130k on the line! The five-star event, in the fifth of its 12-day waiting period, clicked through a flurry of heats, the highlight of which was perhaps Kawai Lindo’s perfect 10 tunnel (that thing was deep), or Makua Rothman posting the day’s highest combined total – 16.86 outta 20. Tomorrow, we’ll get to see men like Jamie O’Brien, Kolohe Andino, John Florence and Josh Kerr enter the mix, which is gonna be real fun. Watch heats on demand now, and the live event tomorrow, over here.
