Opening Day at Pipeline in September? You bet! When Super Typhoon Choi-Wan churned up the Pacific, Pipeline roared to life in all of it’s ferocity making Friday the 25th the best opening day in years at surfing’s most hallowed ground. All photos Zak Noyle/SPL

I can do jiu-jitsu, can your dad? Well, huh, can he?

Yeah I was kinda tripping on that Dino Andino on a longboard call…you da man Townie!

besides, Dino Andino was nowhere near pipe - he's too busy plotting every moment of every day of his son's career so he can finally put that thick skull of his into retirement.
