Kudos to Kalani Minihan for the clips.

For the first time in a very long time, you can actually throw money at the Hawaiian QS. And maybe, if you’re lucky, it’ll cover the gifts on your Christmas list.

BetOnline have put odds up for the Florence Pipe Pro, meaning the Pipe contest that still behaves like a Triple Crown stop now comes with a betting slip attached.

Finn McGill rolls into Pipe off back-to-back wins at Sunset and Haleʻiwa. Barron Mamiya’s come runner-up in both finals. Josh Moniz is another former QS winner at Pipe. The Florence brothers are… well the Florences. Carissa Moore is back dropping 18s between mum duties. Moana Jones Wong remains the Queen of six-foot-plus Pipeline.

The only missing ingredient at the QS-level for years has been stakes.

Now there are some.

You can find Nate’s picks in the above vid. But if like short kings, see below.
