The Da Hui Backdoor Shootout offers a unique take on the Pipeline surf contest concept.

It begins with eight teams of four before whittling down to the finals.

Further unlike WSL surf contests, which have a 10-point ride at the top of the scoring scale, the Backdoor Shootout recognizes that there needs to be room for those extra-throaty barrels, and therefore adjusts the scale to include 12-point spitters (10 is not enough).
