ABOUT THIS UNIQUE EVENT
Teamwork isn’t the first word that typically comes to mind when talking about Pipe. But that’s exactly what’s happening, as the Da Hui Backdoor Shootout in Memory of Duke Kahanamoku returns to the Banzai Pipeline with their tried-and-true, non-elimination team format.

Surfers are entered into eight teams, either by sponsor, neighborhood, peer group, or some other affiliation. And competitively, it's definitely on. But, say event organizers, the whole thing is intended to “foster a sense of camaraderie, teamwork, and community spirit among the participants.”

The event “emphasizes traditional Hawaiian surfing style and places importance on style, power, and respect for the ocean. Surfers are judged not only on their technical maneuvers but also on their overall approach, wave selection, and ability to navigate the tuberides and come out with control and style.”

The holding period is from January 4th-16th, and in addition to the main team comp there will be individual Duke Specialty Events with men's and women's divisions in longboard, SUP and bodysurfing. There’s also heaps of cultural activities on offer: hula performances, traditional Hawaiian music, local food vendors…

It’s basically Aloha Incarnate.
