An attempt to share my passion for surfing with the world.
Under the Radar North Shore Super Session with John John Florence
I’ve been compiling timelines like this forever and doing nothing with them, besides maybe sharing with a few surfers who were out that day. I promise not to spam you with 3-foot Cardiff clips on the regular, but instead of hoarding the footage on Dropbox for eternity, I think it makes sense to put out some memorable sessions to the world, so people can enjoy.
This was shot on January 5th, 2022 during the (digital) Vans Triple Crown of Surfing waiting period. It went largely under the radar, but was easily one of the best non-barreling sessions of surfing I’ve ever witnessed.
At the time, I thought for sure Parallel Sea would be using it. I sent over the timeline to John and Erik Knutson later that evening in case they wanted to have an extra angle. Two years later, I don’t recall seeing more than maybe a few clips here or there.
This footage is in chronological order, no editing aside from cutting out a few waves that weren’t worthy. There were a few times I had to hold my composure after John did a carve, but seriously, inside I was freaking out watching this go down.
What I like most about this style of video is showing perspective. For how many world class surfers were out, there is one obvious standout. I think that has been somewhat lost in the recent times outside of live competition. The surfers who are best at selecting and putting their clips out on social media get the maximum notoriety, but if you watch a session like this in person, the tape doesn’t lie. John is absolutely unreal.

Historic Day of Surfing in San Diego - December 29, 2023
zhlédnutí 535KPřed 6 měsíci
Friday, December 29, 2023 I’m pretty dang happy right now. Today was by far the best session I’ve ever witnessed in San Diego. As you will see, it’s not the most organized or easy wave to read, but the potential for a session of this level has been in the making for a long time. I want to send a huge thank you to Damien Hobgood who I’ve been shooting photos of here for nearly a decade. He used ...
Swamis - Thursday, December 28th - First Big Swell of El Niño Winter 2023/2024
zhlédnutí 176KPřed 6 měsíci
Tested out some filming this evening with the Canon R5 and this new 100-500mm RF lens during the biggest swell I've been home for in a while. Taylor Knox and Joel Tudor were out, along with many others, including some who probably shouldn't have paddled. It was big and west, with a lot of closeouts, but definitely some good ones. Hope you enjoy these raw session videos. I'm going to try and pos...

What it looks like to have Mikey February drop in on you for an entire session. Here's one surf with Mikey while he was in town, riding a Channel Islands Fish. I filmed this using a GoPro HERO12, paired with The Handler.

Good day to be at O.B., in Hodads! 🏄🍔
is this big rock?
This is only historic if you were born after 1990
My scariest surf session was at Swamis way back when , being farthest outside when a cleanup set came in, scratching out made it over three then the fourth caught me and got pounded by two more. That was was the end of my big wave career
Thanks for the footage! Goodnight
Guy on the right. How come you didn't pull in. Easy for me to say but. If your out there to get pitted , that was the chance. Ya, I probly wouldn't of paddled out myself. But if I did? IDK. Tide gets to low so quick
Wheres PK.
Ya, sometimes you do have to switch boards.

“Pretty much Pipeline” ROFL…
I lived on I street in Encinitas 1969/70 and used to surf Swamis with small crowds and surfed Boneyard when it got crowded. The wave is awesome !!
Full Yard Sale!!! 😂🤣
Surfers have ZERO soul , all they do is talk shit about each other , unfortunately the whole surf culture if full of rich entitled young men who live in a egotistical bubble , you all are disgraceful
0:44 😂 good night
Stop... talking.
haha that would be so not fun though. Feel free to mute me, I definitely would!
better to walk back up to the point, split between boneyards than fight that push down to pumphouse
lower tide and those waves will stack
Simply shmoove !
Nobody messing around with experimental boards when the waves are pumping like that. Total ripping!
Skip dominating under the ledge🫡👑wow it got plate glass heavy heavy at the end as the tide kept draining😮
That guy running his mouth at 9:28 needs to show his clips or shhh🤐🤫
sloppy day with far too many out.
Stay safe
HOLY Sh$t I don't know who that was at 4:42, but that off-the lip was absolutely pro level
Both his overall water knowledge and intimate wave knowledge are superlative, he's fluent macro and micro. There have been contests where he grabbed an impromptu barrel in a spot no one else could possibly have and didn't get rewarded for it simply because it was off their scale.
Awesome video! I grew up there from 1968 until 1994. Mi=ost similar day was the first El Nino on New Years day 1982. It was a lot like this day but bigger and less than half that crowd... Thanks again!
Diego waters bang bang
super cool, thanks for filming this video!
pumping.....
Soooo fast JJ surfs 😲....undisputed speed generator & reads the wave like no other 🙌🏽 mesmerising
Nate turnin'like John, siiiick.
OMG😶🌫
I often get bored watching surf clips, this one was peaceful and simple, loved it
NATE surfer of the year...
looks like Pupukea with a half washed out sandbar. Or even worse, rockpiles.
Nice! Was this at Logs or Haleiwa?
Harry Bryant goin ham on the lefts
Love JJs nod to the Mickey Feb kick
Having Jack look like a civilian out there makes you appreciate how gnarly JJF actually is.
That’s what I’m trying to show! But also that is John’s backyard. Jack at Box flips the script
@@jimmicane Mission accomplished 🙌
no one's turns are as esthetically pleasing as his
This and the La Jolla video are some of my favorite surf content on youtube. Love the raw version with background commentary. Makes you feel as if you're sitting there watching the session go down yourself. This is what the people want!
Stoked on that. Thank you Trent
Don't watch without giving sub. Sick footage
Love watching raw clips. Feels like you’re there. Nate and Jack sending it with incredible lines too.
Sick Jimmy more of this!
Is the water kinda dark looking this day because of runoff after a storm?
I can’t remember exactly but it tends to change a lot out there. Seen it electric blue and also dark brown. River runoff right in front of
Was that Harry Bryant blazing those left's?
DK ain’t dead
I want to see JJ and Jack go at it at big Pipe
Best surfer in the world. Yeah I said it.
6:20 That turn was absolutely F*cked.
JJ so precise in the pocket
3:46 is.....
