For three days recently on the North Shore of Oahu, Mason Ho only rode this 4-fin, 5’2 …Lost (Red) RETRO Fish.
In this edit Mason takes his mom to his favourite pile of rocks to watch him surf straight over them! Go Mason, whoop whoop. His dad the legend that is Micheal Ho at 62 can still smash the back out of it.

After Maresias in Brazil last year, Bells beach in Australia earlier this year. This time the Rip Curl European Hell Team had a blast surfing and experiencing the pool of Waco in Texas. Groms lead by Kyllian Guerin (16,FR), were very lucky to surf Waco just for themselves for 3 days to practice their air games.
It has been a very improving experience for the entire team! We get enough time and waves each to practice our air game” said the junior French surfer. Matias Canhoto (12, PRT) and Enoha Le Pieres (12, FR) get used to understand their body positioning and landing position over the board.
After these 3 intense days, the crew moved back to California and especially Trestles to practice in the ocean what they learnt at Waco.
I felt way more confident in the sea after this 3 days spent in the pool. I’m not scared anymore to land huge air on flat.” ends the Portuguese under 12 champion.
Here’s the recap of this amazing Hell Team Experience!
Memories, images and emotions.
Time goes so fast, we often tend to forget what we have done.
Live and remember.
Angelo Bonomelli does it.
Filmmaker Ryan Moss takes us inside the firing lines during the first proper Pipe swell of the season. The Northern Hemisphere winter is without doubt the most exiting time on the surfing calendar. Whether it’s crazy swells broadsiding Nazaré in Portugal, the twin world title showdowns taking place on Maui and Oahu, or the sheer lunacy of the Big Wave World Tour event at Jaws, one thing that’s never lacking is powerful surf and the most prestigious wave on the planet is still Pipeline on the North Shore of Oahu, Hawaii.
