Billabong Pipeline Masters Wraps-up Pro Surf Season ’09 with Aussie Taj Burrow Winning $90,000; Aussie Stephanie Gilmore Winning Billabong Pro Maui for $25,000
Oahu’s North Shore is getting pummeled by monster surf, launching the Eddie Aikau, producing big swells for the women’s Billabong Pro, and gearing up for the Billabong Pipeline Masters -the final event of the Vans Triple Crown.
Slick conditions with SuperCross kickers provided intense excitement as the women’s motoX field raced fast, pulling freestyle moves that proved this is a sport at the cusp of its potential.
This event, featuring hot cars, hot girls, big rims, and pimped rides, makes it tough for even hot performers like Ice Cube and Jim Jones to measure up.
