JAMIE 'O' sealed his reputation as the world’s premier surfer at Pipeline last night, writes TransworldSurf's Justin Cote. Despite a slow start to the final heat of the ASP World Qualifying Series 5-Sar Volcom Pipeline Pro, Pipeline’s own Jamie O’Brien has just won Volcom’s first ever ASP event.
In booming 6-8 foot barrels at both Pipe and Backdoor, Jamie O used his innate local knowledge of the shifting lineup to seal the win with two epic rides at Backdoor over fellow finalists Danny Fuller (4th place), Mark Mathews (3rd place), and Anthony Walsh (2nd place).
For Jamie, it was his fifth win in a major surf contest here at Pipeline, proving without a doubt that he is one of the best ever at surfing’s most sacred venue.
