I’ve been preparing a bunch of images these past few days to enter into the now very prestigious
RedBull illume. I know that the competition is going to be very, very intense this year, to win this event, so I’m not by any means, getting my hopes up. Just simply entering [...]

Jamie OBrien just took out the 2010 Volcom Pipe pro surfing event right here at Pipeline, on the north shore. This is just a quick report right now. I’ll file a more detailed one later. The results were:
1st Place: Jamie OBrien
2nd Place Anthony Walsh
3rd place: Mark Mathews
4th place: Danny [...]

Wow, what a crazy few weeks, it’s been here on the north shore lately. There’s been so much going on round the place. Finally Christmas came around we got the north shore back all-be-it for a week or little more. So quiet round here at the [...]

Just thought I’d take a look back over the week that was chaos, ridiculous traffic, countless barrels, a world championship, a couple of total Pipe legends, another back on the rise. Life on the north shore mid December. Doesn’t get much better. Here’s a glimpse into not necessarily the [...]

Sep 25th was quite the opening day at the Pipe. The swell had come in mighty strong the night before and ploughed out a decent amount of the sand which so often ruins the early season at Pipe. By daybreak, there were bombs to be had, all be it [...]

I shot this one of Jamie Obrien a few years ago, using an assistant, swimming with a remote flash. The concept is simple. My camera has a transmitter on it and the flash has a receiver attached so that when I fire my camera, the flash will trigger at the same [...]

Got down to Jamie Obrien’s front yard in front of Pipe at “a sparrow’s fart” this morning. For those of you, not familiar with Aussie slang terms, “a sparrow’s fart” is “the crack of dawn”. It still wasn’t looking epic or anything, but there were sporadic moments of greatness happening, [...]

It’s another one of those “too big for everywhere except 12 foot windblown Waimea” days, so I’m going to show you a handful of the images which I had in the new book about Pipeline. Surfline recently published a large coffee table book, simply called “The Pipeline”. [...]
