A thrilling final days surfing in the Vans Triple Crown surfing event ant Banzai Pipeline in Hawaii. I honestly thought it was going to happen for Mike Fanning, but a stunning score on his last wave- a 9.70, clinched it for him.

The infamous Banzai Pipeline was out pumping for the final and I thought it was looking a bit in a foul mood, but even if you can’t tame a wave , the likes of Kelly Slater, Mick Fanning , John John Floranence certainly know how to get the best out of it! A huge congratulation to Kelly Slater for winning the event.
