Listopedia: Mitch Coleborn’s Surfing Wishlist
There are a few spots I’d like to hit, but I’m not going to tell you about them. At least not yet. Actually, I feel like there are endless spots I’d like to check out, including some classic breaks that I always want to return to. Leaving aside Oz breaks for now, at that the moment these ten are at the top of my list:
The Pipeline, Oahu Hawaii
It just doesn’t get any more iconic, challenging, or potentially perfect than Pipe, so like everyone that’s a wave I always look forward to returning to, and probably speaks for itself.
Teahupoo, Tahiti
Again, another iconic and super challenging break that really demands the best from you. Surfing Chopes is like nothing else, you just have to be on your game mentally and physically.
