Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic | event hosted
Wednesday, January 16th, 2008The Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic is a bodysurfing competition held annually during the Winter season at the Banzai Pipeline on the North Shore of the island of Oahu in Hawaii.
The goals (and historical precedent) for the Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic are based on the original concept of the North Shore Expressive / Paipo bodysurfing event.
The Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic first ran February 1971 (which preceded the Pipeline Masters, which ran December 1971) see this link about event origin.Therefore, the Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic was the first surfing event at Pipeline (Ehukai Beach Park) on the North Shore of Oahu.
The Event was originally hosted by the Honolulu City Parks Department (to promote water safety and wave consciousness), as a multi-division bodysurfing, handboard and skegless paipo board competition open to both men and women.
Eventually, the event was adopted by the North Shore Bodysurfing Club in Haleiwa, Hawaii.
Currently, the Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic is an event open to all bodysurfers to compete in a world class, judged competition specific to Bodysurfing and uses established judging standards.
Due to problems with the methods used by the City and County of Honolulu; the Pipeline Bodysurfing Classic was denied a contest permit for the surf calendar season 2006-2007. Apparently, the Honolulu City parks department does not have an appeal process. Therefore, the only way to challenge a decision by the Honolulu City parks department is by litigation.
