NORTH SHORE HAWAII SURF CONTEST BACKGROUND             In the world of pro surfing, there are two titles to strive for: the ultimate is to be crowned world champion, and close behind is the title of  Triple Crown of Surfing champion. Every surfer knows that without having proven one's worth in Hawaii's giant winter waves, success is hollow. "There's winning the world title, and right behind it is winning the Triple Crown. It completes you as a surfer." -six time champion Sunny Garcia The grand-daddy of the  Triple Crown of Surfing is the Pipeline Masters. Inaugurated in 1971, the Pipeline Masters joined company in 1983 with the World Cup at Sunset Beach (now known as the O'Neill World Cup of Surfing) and the  OP Hawaiian Pro at Haleiwa. Former world champion surfer Fred Hemmings saw the opportunity in '83 to showcase the unsurpassed quality and size of Oahu's North Shore winter waves and through his vision, the 'Triple Crown of Surfing' was born.   This is an original poster from this event in mint condition!!  Year: 2006 Length: 23 inches Width: 17 incheS  THIS POSTER WILL BE SHIPPED IN A HEAVY DUTY POSTER TUBE                               Sunset Surf Sales            Sunset Surf Sales is a small company located across the street from Sunset Beach on the North Shore of Oahu.       Our products reflect the belief that surfing is a way of life.
