North Shore, HAWAII – A dramatic end the the women’s bodyboarding final at this years T&C Surf Women’s Pipeline Pro Championship titles when a 7-foot shark swam into the line up during the last heat of the day. As a result, officials were unable to complete the bodyboarding final. The four bodyboarding finalist, Japan’s Aoi Koike and Moe Watanabe as well as Australia’s Mandy Zieren and Lilly Pollard unanimously decided to equally split the prize purse to get $750 each.”I’m so happy that we were able to put on this contest here at Pipeline for the girls,” says contest director Betty Depolito. “We didn’t have the most ideal conditions this year, but the girls did the best they could with what mother nature gave them and we all had a lot of fun!” <\/p>\n
Bodyboarder Monica Dell’Amore from California received the contest’s Aloha Award and surfer Coral Gonzalves was honored with this year’s Rookie of the Year award. <\/p>\n
In other divisions, Nicola Atheron is this year’s T&C Surf Women’s Pipeline Pro Shortboard Champion. “To come to Hawaii and come out on top of such a stacked contest of talented women is amazing!” said Atherton. The 19-year old Australian scored the only perfect 10 wave of the contest in earlier heats. “I think this type of wave is good for my type of surfing,” said Atherton. Hawaii was well-represented in the shortboard division with local phenomenon, Carissa Moore placing second and Paige Alms in third. <\/p>\n
Tony Volkswagon team rider, Leah Dawson conquered the longboard division. “It’s such an unbelievable feeling,” said Dawson. A competitor in both shortboard and longboard divisions, it was Dawson’s noseriding style that impressed the judges. “I just keep working hard out there,” claim Dawson, “and it pays off!” <\/p>\n
