Day 3 of the IBA Pipeline Bodyboarding Pro!

Today, 28 February 2013, saw the third day of competition of the 30th Annual Pipeline Challenge on Oahu’s North Shore. And what a spectacular day it was! Mother Nature unleashed her raw power with some of the sets reaching a solid 10-12 feet out at Pipeline today; separating the men from the boys out in the water and providing a great show for everyone on the beach.

The IMUA team had a great day in the tent, with all the top bodyboarders stopping by and getting a taste of some healthy food.  The energy was wonderful, with the ocean delivering and IMUA feeling well appreciated by the whole bodyboarding community.
