When the second round of the Billabong Pipe Masters event finished yesterday, two great things happened. First, the waves turned on. Second, four of the best surfers in the world paddled out for the Women’s Pipe Invitational.
Carissa Moore, Courtney Conlogue, Tatiana Weston-Webb, and Keala Kennelly put on a show that only those four could. As the newly crowned 2015 World Champion, Carissa Moore dominated. Courtney Conlogue, the runner up in the title race, came in at a close second, while big wave lunatic and ex-CT surfer Keala Kennelly and rookie of the year Tatiana Weston-Webb took third and fourth, respectively.
