That's superhero stuff, I thought for sure he was going to back out at the top. If he ever wants to lose twenty pounds they can just trim a bit off his balls.
🌊🌊♥️🙏 Fabulous footage 🎥🎞️🎞️📺 from Hawaii , Great ride's guyz , I'm only 65 now but your never to old to watch 👁️👁️ , Great work , The phantom of northshore, AKA Diamond Dave ♦️♦️♦️ e
The air drop JJ was wave of the winter!! I replayed it over and over, my first view I held my breath… From those of us that have had the awesome experience of huge Waimea what a power drop that was!!
John John back to 90 percent scary draw for anyone good to see him keeping the best close by Jack is a Beast from what I've seen at pipe both of them world best surfers right now
Crazy how comfortable he is with a critical drop. Can’t imagine many others on the tour would handle themselves like this in huge surf. If only the regular CT also included some big wave contests
100% With all due respect to the others, because there are some great surfers, but John has to be the best all-around, hands down. Airs, tubes, cutbacks, small waves, big waves, huge waves... Just amazing!
Dude....please warn me if it's going to be what looks like a snuf film drop 4:49. I inhaled a Cheeto Puff mid gasp and nearly blacked out. Luckily I self Heimliched when I fell on the floor. Glad we both made it.
Paddle in, take the drop, negotiate the massive wall, and rush it to the awaiting shoulder to safety! Pretty much sums up Waimea! Not a long ride, but a terrifying one!
I recall seeing these big waves in 73 or 74 while stationed there. Walked down to the beach. It was at first was terrifying they looked like they come all the way inshore. Tried body surfing ended up doing a face plant on shore breakers.. stuck out my arms nope folded them then the face plant.. I believe Sharks Cove was on one side and the Pipe Line was on the other. Went nite diving at sharks cove at nite and while there never went day diving again. Dennis Kerwin was the Scuba instructor. Maui, PADI, And good ole YMCA. CERTS. mostly good memories! Aloha
You know it’s big when you see that boil on Waimea face which was a very big boil on that late lip drip into air near the end of the vid. Absolutely mental and looked like real nice Waimea conditions. Crazy how fast the waves come up on you in Hawaii compared to west coast CA.
i am unable to stand (only can knee ride), but im wondering if i sat sort of 'inside' and picked up a shoulder of one of the unridden ones from outside, if i could get out safely on the shoulder kneeboarding on one of those big boards :) also, it could be fun just to paddle out and sit towards the channel and watch the big waves from the water. it must be so powerful and spectacular to be amidst that and see / feel its power :) also, it could be fun to lay in the sun on the beach / cliff and take a nap while suntanning to the roar and rumble of those waves breaking :)
Love a good party wave 🎉 🌊 But also watching those big boards get thrown around like toothpicks in the wind is fucking terrifying... What a beast of a wave
That last drop of JJ was fkn unreal! Couple other guys had some air bomb drops also.
base jump
Reminded me of El Slammo
I would put that up in the greatest drops in the history of the sport category

@@WayneLynch69 that one blew my mind for sure!
chill tunes, delicious cinematography and absolute charging! This might be my new favourite surf channel
Jack's like "I need foooood'...John "ah granola bar works". 😂
Bingo Bango Pickled Mango 😂

2:07 -mad respect for making that drop.
Wow! Incredible footage!!! So awesome!
4:55 is absolutely off the charts! It’s not human…
4:20-Reverse Jeff Clark . . .John Goin switch backside, and then that air drop. Bravo!
That second last drop was mental. Love his lines, always seeking the barrel.
The switch drop in was insane! And the last airdrop was soo sick! Love it JJ!
Miraculous recovery on the lip, one for the ages, salute, and a swell new year.
that was unreal

Amazing airdrop and makes the wave... Pyzel big wave boards look amazingly reliable.
was close to watching this tomorrow, so glad i didnt wait. 4:49 is such an insane drop/recovery.
JJF riding massive waves like it’s a 3ft sesh🤙🤣 That pull in to Big Barrel and late drop in other wave were mental! Awesome to watch Sir🙏
Sick to see two legends together! Hope we see some margs content in the future!
I always appreciate the perspective these videos give. A great balance between amazing cinematography and authentic POVs. Thank you for sharing! 🤙🏼
Dear John, i think you're not human 🤣 that last drop was out of this world 🥰
Well that was epic! Thanks for sharing 😊
Well produced, great vid!
This was some of the most insane Waimea surfing I’ve ever seen!
Dude....please warn me if it's going to be what looks like a snuf film drop 4:49. I inhaled a Cheeto Puff mid gasp and nearly blacked out. Luckily I self Heimliched when I fell on the floor. Glad we both made it.
haha
Bombing bro!!! You are a true legend!
Nice mix of the party waves, and the sick solo waves, especially the airborne drop!🔥🔥🤙
John always Catches a LOT of Waves! Usually the Best ones. So Blessed to have John John Florence showing us how! Pono
Air drop @ 5:00 was absolutely mental. JJ kinda knows how to do the surfing!! Lol
The wave at 4:50 was maybe big wave WOTW!😮Air drop was insane !!!
I can’t imagine ever charging like that. Insane drops down the line on those massive sweepers. So sick!
2:49 Sick recovery. 4:51 JJF toying and flying with Waimea monster wave 😱
Paddle in, take the drop, negotiate the massive wall, and rush it to the awaiting shoulder to safety! Pretty much sums up Waimea! Not a long ride, but a terrifying one!
That airdrop was wild!
@ 2:14 LMFAO, that was unreal, carnage everywhere, bodies, boards everywhere and JJ pulls into a 25 foot closeout barrel at Waimea !!
JJF- Thanks for sharing man! Looks like you guys and freak'n blast!
holy shit that clip at 4:50 in the video is insane!!!🤙
John thank you 😃🤙 incredible content thanks to all the guys you where with,all awesome 👏🏼
Pretty cool how the two best surfers in the world (JJ & jack) just vibe🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Happy New Year to the Florence family wishing you the best from the cold slums of New Jersey. Thanks for the show and the post card.
The wave at the 4:55 mark was awesome. He was airborne.
That was so sick. Some of those late drops were 🤯🤯🤯
You all make it look so easy! Love these vids on my lunch break! Thank you 😊
Crazy airdrop! Also JJ surfing switched stance at 4:20 was impressive 😵
Good one John!! Hard to make that drop look so easy, because it's so not. Also not many can stay up in that white water at all.
04:02 John looking like a ladybug. What kind of medical treatment is it?
John John is incredible. His surf talent is top of the peak.
Your are gnarly John. levels. baffled. and that board looks insane
Puts things in perspective of what it takes to run the Eddie. Those were heavy
Estou precisando tomar umas ESPUMAS no raso com água de Coco e bronzeador.
Jack~ I’ve never surfed Waimea before…..
John John~ the swells peaking u be alright 😂
Legends thanks for the entertainment
This was pure 🔥🔥🔥 ! Thank u JJ
So incredibly in tune with Mother Nature!!!
Love you John!! You’re always bringing the vibes we need!
BEST surf content out there!!
OMGGGG that drop in at @2:48 and @4:50 !!!
WOW! As a non surfer, I am always wondering how the heck those waves don't kill!! Love watching this!
sometimes they do
@@jb-es5zj just goes to show the level of skill in these surfers! i am in awe watching them!
@@dawna4185 take alook at teahupoo for some really heart in mouth stuff

Those were some sick waves 🤙
Happy New Years Braddah John John Aloha! 2023
Rid'm boys, I miss that place. Best day of my life.
If you are going to surf Waimea for the first time, good idea to bring someone who has won the Eddie with you. Epic.
@4:48 Duuuuude
Yea, the most insane drop ever!
Far out he pulled into that monster pit
The times that John decided to hop off the board in the white water so's not to get pushed in too far were all drowning events for me.
I almost drowned in two feet of water in Maui so I understand…if it weren’t for the little girl who told me to stand up I’d be toast right now.
Hola,🤙🏼 Mr.Florence Waimea,🌊 awesome big set-ripping& may you have a sweet,2023⽢!
At 4:53 he goes full Richard Schmidt on that drop!!! Makes it too.
Man, that's a brutal wave.
That drop was insane J.J. Geez
ALL party waves lol love it
I sure hope you or some of your buddies made it to Cortes Bank during this recent storm!
this vid helped my balls drop for tomorrows big swell in SoCal. cheers boys.
That airdrop was absolutely positively incredible. Had to watch it over and over.
Full respect, catching that giant on the lip , the drop the view must be frightening.
Phenomenal!!!
2:12 pulling into that monster and the last drop, insane.
yes! keep waiting for someone to pull that off, and maybe I missed one. slater has come close I think?
Came looking to see if anyone timestamped it . Nuts !
These drops are insane! Moments like these make me miss my 16 years in paradise. Sending love from DC!

so nice to seee the shore come alive
Minute 2:37 the worse nightmare paddle in look like solid 28Ft 🫢😂🤙🏽
Don't worry, the shorebreak is easy if you can manage 15ft of whitewash while duck diving a 10 foot, 45 litre mega gun.
Confirmed to me he is the best surfer on the planet currently.
Insane waves phenomenal surfers 🏄 what wave couldn’t you surf?!?
4:22 So casual with the switched stance I didn't even notice it the first time
That was sick bro 🤙
Bingo bango pickle mango ✨🤙 that airdrop though triple pickle mango dat one
4:52 sick drop!
4:51 gnarlyyyyyyy!!!

Ya man that air drop was the bomb 💣
Love how you handle that big board. unreal.
2:13 super dangerous. John charging a tube while people's boards hatchet down with the lip.
... and @ 4:21 JJ even matches a switchfoot drop in front of crew!!!
That was definitely, "Bingo Bango Pickled Mango"
john + jack hit jaws. surely next swell.
At 4:49 Ride of the Year! Or biggest paddle wave?
2:15 pulling in at Waimea is for wizards only
you guys are super human
This makes me want to see more JJF at Peahi.
Love a good party wave 🎉 🌊
But also watching those big boards get thrown around like toothpicks in the wind is fucking terrifying...
What a beast of a wave
❤ so cool. those big gun boards are rad blades :)
