It’s hard to really say who “ruled the winter” on the North Shore this season, but if you’re talking top five guys that charged the shit out of every wave that came their way, Sion Milosky is most definitely on the top of that list. Check out the bonus GoPro footage from this beastly Pipe wave.

John Florence takes out Jamie O'Brien, Chris Ward, and Aamion Goodwin in the final to take the win. Damn, what a f—king good contest. Check out the full story above.

You know those days where you see footage of Pipeline and it just looks so blue and inviting? Wednesday was one of those days at the 2011 Volcom Pipe Pro. Check out all the photos and video highlights from Wednesday's insane action here.

With more than a dozen surfboards victim to "the ever changing beauty" of Pipeline (as Gerry Lopez put it), the 2011 Volcom Pipe Pro kicked off with a bang on a gorgeous North Shore day. Get all the highlights and rundown here.

By day's end, more than a dozen surfboards were interred into the Banzai surfboard graveyard and an unheard of Brazilian stole the show in his debut event. The Volcom Pipe Pro is a $120,000 5 star ASP rated event, held today in wave heights of up to 15 feet (wave face value).

Yesterday's lay day for the Volcom Pipe Pro still provided some great Pipe sessions for all the boys. The contest is on today, so watch that live on transworldsurf.com and check out a few images from yesterday's lay day.

The Billabong Pipe Masters in Memory of Andy Irons, the final jewel of the Vans Triple Crown (an ASP Specialty Series), is back on this morning in building two-to-four foot (1 metre) surf at the Banzai Pipeline after nearly a week of lay days.

“As predicted, the surf is still small this morning so we’ve been forced to call competition off once again,” Richie Porta, ASP International Head Judge said. “The good news is that we’re expecting a new swell to start filling in tomorrow, so we should be back up and running soon.”

The Billabong Pipe Masters in Memory of Andy Irons, the final jewel of the Vans Triple Crown (an ASP Specialty Series), has been called off again today with only small one-to-two foot (.5 metre) surf prevailing at Pipeline.
