  • **Spoiler ALERT** From beginning to end, Florence was not to be denied. He was in rhythm all event, but it was the Semifinal against Kelly Slater that he really went next level. In the opening exchange, on two of the best Pipe waves of the day, Florence got the edge by one point. Then he went to work against the GOAT. He backed up his Pipe barrel with a calculated, fall-from-the-roof bomb at Backdoor. By heat's end, all Slater could do was drop in on the "grom" and try to steal some of the limelight.

    Opening exchange i'm thinking a pair of 9s. Yes John's wave was bigger (the 2nd wave of the set) but Kelly got more tube time, a longer barrel. They both were super deep, so that factor is about equal. I enjoyed Kelly's ride more, longer ride, plus a sick turn.

    At 0:40 sec remaining (when else does KS amaze us) he gets his 10 point ride basically, that he needed. And guess what? I think he won priority. I don't quite get it, how he lost priorty to JJ. He paddled back first, after his closeout. KS nearly won that heat. Wow. JJ was on fire and could have lost still. Amazing. Key point: KS needed that priority! Also JJ was too deep, he wasn't going to make that, he only caught it as a blocking maneuver, to create an interference on KS, to penalize him. Update: so the paddle battle was a tie and priority was taken from KS bc he rode the last wave. Makes sense. I agree their paddling back out was a tie.
