The Billabong Pipeline Masters, named and sponsored by the namesake Australian surfing company, is one of the most elite surfing competitions that is held in Oahu, Hawaii. Winning it is considered a mark of achievement for any young surfer starting out. And local Oahu-based surfer, then a 21-year-old, won the competition in 2004. The surfer, 39 years old today, still takes an equally keen interest in surfing. And when not surfing himself, he loves to capture other surfers enjoying the waves in their pastime.

Jamie O’Brien, whose achievements from a very young age precede him, recently shared a video of a group of surfers enjoying the time of their life on Hawaii’s North Shore. Here’s what he filmed.

Jamie O’Brien still enjoys every moment spent around surfing

Professional surfer Jamie O’Brien took to Facebook and shared a 3:39 clip about a bunch of surfers enjoying their best time in the renowned waves of Oahu in Hawaii. He wrote the caption on Facebook, “Living The Surfer’s DREAM In Hawaii”.

The waves at Oahu were perfect for anyone to spend a nice day surfing. O’Brien wrote in the comments, “The waves were firing perfectly and the surfers were out! Sick time out on the North Shore. Stay psyched friends!”

There was excitement in his words. O’Brien, who grew up on these shores from his childhood still finds them as exciting as they were to him on his first day as a kid.

O’Brien is a pure ‘Surfing Prodigy’

Jamie O’Brien was born in Kahuku, Hawaii, and grew up near Banzai Pipeline, often considered the surfing Mecca of Oahu, North Shore. He has practically seen these waves his whole life, and yet their appeal never ceases to amaze him. But any beautiful day at the beach with a bunch of surfers, really enjoying the day on those waves, is fulfilling enough for him to capture it on his camera.

O’Brien became one of the youngest surfers to win Pipeline Masters. His father was a lifeguard, and hence the oceans and waves have played a huge part in his life for his entire life. A YouTube sensation as well, O’Brien lets go of any struggle during surfing and purely enjoys every bit of the moment. As it seems, it will never cease to amaze him for the rest of his life as well.
