The Pipeline Masters, held at Ehukai Beach on Oahu's North Shore, is the final event in the men's World Championship Tour and the biggest in world surfing. Fittingly, it takes place on the revered waves at the Banzai Pipeline.
The Banzai Pipeline is a formidable tubed surfing break formed by the huge winter swells of the open ocean and driven south by the storm winds of the Aleutian Islands. It gained its name in the 1950s when famed surf cinematographer Bruce Brown screamed "Banzai" on witnessing a surfer commence his descent of a vicious wave.
