This was the most dominant contests by a surfer I've ever seen. I say that with all due respect to the GOAT, Kelly. But, with the exception of day 1 when the waves were shit, once the waves started pumping, JJF threw nothing but 19 plus heats. Those were big, gnarly waves that he absolutely shredded.

Tim Petersen - 7 years ago

In fighting this would be considered a mismatch.

Pedro Vasconcelos Dias - 7 years ago

Did john john win all the heats with 19+ points?

Caio Tompa - 6 years ago

no, he won 5 with 19+, 1 with 18+ and the first one at north point with 13+... it is good to note that he comboed everyone he surfed against, even in no losers rounds

joegebhard888 - 7 years ago

John John's ability to consistently through down critical turns is truly jaw dropping!!! Hands down the best surfer in the world!!!!

bigbillwaltonsacidheads - 7 years ago

good for these kids they make big$$$$.

Faith & Action - 7 years ago

There's so much style in surfing, but it's missing 1 key element: wearing board shorts over a wetsuit.

van wray - 7 years ago

Batman and the Joker are the leaders of that key element while competing at Gotham Point.

Ricardo Vianna - 7 years ago

Nestas ondas o JJ sobra , esteve sempre a 2 níveis acima

As always John John Florence is the BEST , what a beast !!
Congratulations John John !!!

JJF certainly enjoyed himself today in surf that is very similar to his homebreaks... He surfed a 6'2". when other guys were strugglin with step-ups and were having trouble with the bigger open ocean style surf, JJF made it look like a day in his backyard...
This is not to say he is a far greater surfer than everyone else on tour, it is just that this place and this surf suited him better.. He was more comfortable in it...
I do think he has the potential to be one of the greratest ever though... He certainly seems to see different lines on waves, that are great to watch... I hope he can continue this form in all surf conditions and win many World Titles, because I genuinely like his surfing, and he seems like a likable chap. He seems pretty down to earth and happy.
But I don't think that just because he dominated in this bigger surf in WA, and made every one else look rather amateur, that it means that he is actually far greater than everyone else in all surf, and that he has it all stitched up...yet..

ima man well said!

Live Strong - 7 years ago

Yeah I agree. Every dog has their day.

Dave Lospinoso - 7 years ago

John John is next level, his biggest adversary is himself. if he doesn't get hurt this year doing his sorcery he's getting another title. the only 3 surfers who can properly take him down are Julian Gabriel Jordy, and all three of them are looking like they are a level below John John in his form right now

As soon as i first saw JJF's first turn I knew it was all over

Bjorn Lundeen - 7 years ago

He is making everyone else set a new bar in their surfing. Unfortunately for them it has also to do with body type, mass, pure physics, combined with insane talent. Jon is no boy anymore he's a beast with a lot of muscle and weight. So crazy good and awesome to see! If Kolohe was taller and another 15 or so pounds of muscle on him his turns would also produce more sheer water conversion. Jordy is the only one who can match Jon's power that I have seen so far. Bourez close third.

MariusPlays7 - 6 years ago

Nice talk. I totally agree with that

Craig Mclachlan - 7 years ago

Bjorn Lundeen I

ima man - 7 years ago

+Bjorn Lunden, I agree about the comment regarding the boards. A lot of guys seemed toi struggle with board choices more than anything. In all honesty a lot of these guys would have surfed the condition way better with an old single fin than the lightweight boards they used.
JJF's board loved these conditions, and he looked so comfortable in them...

Bjorn Lundeen - 7 years ago

It depends on the conditions..I was refering to this type of wave....this type of wave is better for guys like Jon Jordy Michele Owen all those big folk etc....even the commentators were saying it.

Bjorn Lundeen - 7 years ago

they use heavier boards for tow in why not the lighter guys add mass to their boards in those bigger chunkier conditions? just thinking out my ass again lol

Bjorn Lundeen - 7 years ago

lol ya but the lighter guys flutter more you cant ignore it

Nicolás Janovsky - 7 years ago

Bjorn Lundeen dude most of top 34 surfers are between 5'7" and 5'9". Your argument about physics is invalid if you look at kelly, who is 5'9". Filipe, another great surfer imo is 5'9". Adriano, also one of the best surfers, is 5'6 1/2"

Mathew Jardini - 7 years ago

Fanning, Slater, Coffin, wilko, owen wright? countles others? so many tour surfers with good power game. jjf is 6 foot 1 and around 170 pounds, and jordy is 6 foot 2 and 190. thats like 20 pounds more mate. I guess we are all entitles to our own opinions, but i disagree with your analysis. Kinda just seems like youre talking out of your ass

keegan teal - 7 years ago

Also johns board has less rocker and more foam than kolohe so he can really push down on it without losing speed

Sam Wells - 7 years ago

Bjorn Lundeen dude they are almost the exact same lmao. look up stats before you start talking . they just have e differnt styles that's all.

Scat Man 1620 - 7 years ago

I agree with you S J. Technique is key. JJF is not built like a beast but his technique is perfect and beast

S J. - 7 years ago

Bjorn Lundeen I disagree. Technique is key.
