The 2025 Da Hui Backdoor Shootout Finals Day Is On

The 2025 Da Hui Backdoor Shootout Day Four is on, and as is tradition, Pipe has arrived right on schedule.

Per usual, eight teams of five get to surf Pipeline six times during various rounds (which translates into 4 enviable hours of perfect, empty Pipeline), with each individual surfer’s top three waves overall being counted. And because some waves at Pipe are that crazy, the scoring scale goes to 12.
