A DAY IN HAWAII WITH CORY & LUKE LOPEZ

A DAY IN HAWAII WITH CORY & LUKE "THE DUDE" LOPEZ

Cory Lopez has been spending every winter season on the North Shore of Oahu for the last 30 years. In the past, Cory's reason for being in Hawaii consisted of competing in world tour events, catching bombs at Pipeline, and launching airs across the seven-mile miracle. But in the true spirit of fatherhood, this year proved to be a bit different. He decided to bring along his 8 year old son, Luke "The Dude" Lopez. Although Luke had been to Hawaii before, this was his first trip where surf was a priority. From surfing Pipeline to driving across the island to the south shore, Luke was frothing at every opportunity to be in the water.
