Pipe dream

... it's a long way from Chittaway Point to Sunset Beach but Saxon Lumsden looks right at home in the bowl during his heats in the HIC Pro.

This is what he had to say about the event:

"Hawaii has been amazing so far, had a couple of really big swells. Its been super challenging but so much fun, surfing my brains out. A few days at big Pipe and Sunset, an awesome learning experience.

Also surfed the contest. Unfortunately I lost out yesterday but surfed a couple of really good heats in pretty big Sunset, some of the best waves of my life and a couple of super round barrels. Lucky I had my TCSS boardies done up tight cause I got a few floggings that day!"
