The Banzai Pipeline Surfboard was a type of early 22nd century surfboard. Prior to its launch from Earth in 2123, twenty-five of these surfboards were loaded unto the colony ship SS Mariposa. (TNG: "Up The Long Ladder" ) The Banzai Pipeline was a surf reef break located in Hawaii, United States known for its waves and the surfers who attempted to surf those waves. Since the episode featured multiple Buckaroo Banzai in-jokes, this choice of name might double as another one.
