Attending the Billabong Pipe Masters has always been a bucket list item for me. This year, I have been lucky enough to make that dream a reality. I flew over 30 hours to attend the final event of the Vans Triple Crown of Surfing and yesterday I joined 1000's of other photographers and spectators on the shoreline of Banzai Pipeline to watch some of the greatest contest surfing that 2013 has had to offer. Being there for the final day was an unbelievable experience and truly a highlight of my career as a surf photographer. Blessed with maxing waves, beautiful weather and phenomenal surfing, it's a day I don't think anybody could forget. View my photo story below. Enjoy!
