    His little tree house overlooking pipe is where I want to retire. Smoke a bowl, watch hot girls on the beach, read, draw, take long old man naps in the sea breeze and watch people ripping pipe when it's on. Perfect!

      Dazz RL ya but he’s living the 1% not all people from the north shore living like this. Especially the less fortunate ones that have had family there for longer than the Florence family. This looks good because he’s literally living the best surfer life you can. Doesn’t have to worry about money.

    he is an artist through and through==from his vision for his home to his photography (loved those bicycles) to ,obviously(holy f*!k, those airs), his surfing. the thing that always strikes me about him, which is so rare, is that he just comes across as so totally into the moment==into what he is saying or doing. not about ego or having a certain presentation or even awareness of being filmed. like a kid just into his sand castle. as i said, a true artist.

      They're probably subconsciously jealous of him because he is good at most things he does. Not to mention the fame, future wealth, and attention especially from the ladies. All you can do is be happy for others, and aspire to be similar, or just ignore them if you don't liken how they are.

    • @boogiedownbronx73
      @boogiedownbronx73 9 лет назад +1

      taogarrett Oahu definitely can be beautiful especially any part outside Honolulu. I went for the first time to Oahu this year and after 3 days got tired of downtown. Besides the tourists (I consider myself a traveler/adventurer, not a tourist. I am from Europe), too many homeless people. Years back they were all over the island someone told me, and probably many live in the forest, but downtown is just dirty and infested with shit. My favourite part so far is around Waimanalo bay. Peaceful, beautiful and not too many tourists, except for wealthy Japanese who rent summer houses.

    1:14 Failed the driving test 4 times!? That's so hard to believe. I always assumed if you can ride a bike, that you can drive. And if you skate and surf, that you can ride a bike, and definitely can drive. He must've failed from technicalities, not from coordination errors.

    John John is an incredible surfer but I can not believe the idiot at the start who tries to say he is as good as him, worse he also says he could be better; talk about rose tinted Hawaiian glasses. Kelly won his first title at age 20, started a 5 title win streak at age 22, John John is still not quite there competing for one yet, while Kelly at age 38 is still ahead of him. Now Medina is a more realistic shot at being compared to Kelly, a more complete surfer than John John as it stands, but still will anyone come close to Kelly's feats? Highly unlikely.

    • @danielvelasco8668
      @danielvelasco8668 9 лет назад

      I think its because John is more of a free surfer and he is a big wave rider, medina doesnt ride big waves, thats why they compare him to Kelly. When the waves are small Medina shreds but when its big he doesnt show up

    • @petecabrina
      @petecabrina 9 лет назад

      Daniel Velasco He is more of a free surfer, on the tour? Do people even know what the statement means. At the end of the day maybe he just lacks the drive and instinct for competition, like Dane Reynolds. If he wants to go chase big waves and 'free surf' he can leave the tour any time he wants, but of course the $$$ are too sweet which means sponsorship obligations.
