Nothing like jumping off a plane after surfing twice in the past three months and colliding with this beast in the middle of the Pacific. Might be time to up the cardio a bit.
In the true spirit of SION MILOSKY we are celebrating this winter season with the first annual STEEP & DEEP PIPELINE PHOTO CHALLENGE. Catching big, vertical, deep barreling waves at Pipeline is a passion SION pursued every winter for the love of it. In honor of SION we are looking for the steepest and deepest surf photo of the 2011-2012 winter season at PIPELINE or BACKDOOR. This is a prestigious event and requires great skill and drive.

Probably one of the bigger sets I saw this morning. The fly-out makes for a cool photo for the newspaper, but Bobby really should have stuffed this one.
