This is certainly not the best image of the best there is in surf and sand. This article could use some real photos of the pipe.

The link on the bottom says Hookipal. Isn't it just Hookipa?

[edit] Trivia section

The final sentance of the trivia section is a joke, not based in fact, and should be removed. (139.168.157.209 20:30, 24 February 2007 (UTC))

Not so. I found a reference to it. KeithH 08:06, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Spelling

Maybe someone should check the spelling in this article? Loutzi (talk) 23:56, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Use of surfing jargon

Was wondering if someone more knowledgeable about surfing can translate the jargon in this article and maybe put this into a more formal tone, especially when it talks about "A-frames" and waves "bombing out" or "closing out," etc. KeithH 08:33, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

Agreed. While the use of surfing terminology and slang is acceptable on the main surfing article, it serves no purpose here. In fact makes it unintelligable to lay readers, which is not at all fair. ▫Bad▫harlick♠ 09:36, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
OK guys, I've surfed at Pipe, etc. in the past and I just edited a bunch of areas of the article to add explanations of the surfing terms. If it's still difficult for the non-surfer to understand or if the formatting needs fixing, etc. let me know here and I'll fix it up further when I get a chance.

Yeah. It's still completely ridiculous to try to read this. It's like reading a Ninja Turtle dialogue. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.210.97.19 (talk) 20:39, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Well, I tried to make it more accessable by explaining things in more detail. If it's so "completely ridiculous"... YOU fix it or just continue to whine, it's up to you. Cowicide (talk) 15:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Protection?

Vandals moving in, might be time to add a lock here soon? Cowicide (talk) 15:52, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Recent deaths

Removed the recent deaths section. Do we really need this? First, we need sources. Viriditas (talk) 13:28, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
