Johnny and Lowers

This is why there’s so much hype around John Florence. As if the Pipe poise wasn’t enough, the kid simply owns smaller wave skateparks like Trestles. Never mind the unorthodox limb placement – it’s all part of his charm. Shot during and around the Nike Lowers Pro, this is performance surfing at its very best.

I’m gonna go ahead and proclaim John John as my favorite surfer.

The only dude, except a small handful, that has his own unique style that came through naturally.

2.

his style is the antwuan dixon of surfing

3.

@yute ive been thinking the exact same thing. the skateboarding community praises antwuans arm placement, but for some reason the surf world finds a problem with it, as if more arm movement is a good thing

4.

Heck yeah that antwaun comparison is spot on! Both antwaun and John John have epic styles that make everything look easy

5.

What are you talking about you kooks? John John’s style is fucked.

    13.

    na man just different.

    i dont know how anyone could think that. i love it

15.

Ok John John rips really really hard but this edit sucks balls. slow motion cut backs? fuck that noise

16.

JOHN JOHN shreds so much. Who reallly cares if his arms move around a bit? Shows his putting everything into his turns, putting his whole body into it. Competetic surfing these days is making every surfer the same i dont think we want that do we?

    you dumb

18.

He looks schizophrenic, or on pills when he is on a wave. How is that appealing to anyone? Keep those sort of fucked up movements to the music festival scene. Splendour in the Grass anyone?

19.

He looks relaxed E. Guess you never watched good skateboarding.

    Your name is Donkey, your word means nothing

Air game amazing, perhaps as good or even beter than reynolds. The style is certainly unique but I actually find it really pleasant. Perhaps rail game could have some work, but that could just be because i havn’t seen him in conditions that demand that – shame about jbay. Fantastic addition to the tour.

Find it hilarious that all of you condescending bastards always have something negative to say, even about someone as sick as John John. Seriously, I know you all go home and cry yourself to sleep that you will never be half as good as this kid is at 18. Learn to give out respect where respect is due and quit being such dicks. “wahh, his style is bad” He knows the barrel better than you ever will. Future World Champion. Get used to it.

23.

struggles in the big stuff !!

24.

Unique. His style actually gets better(more flow) when he switched board and fins for the comp. His style in the air and heaving barrels are without question. Kolohe needs to step it up to hang with John John.

25.

If I were Oneil Id be sucking his dick. oneil better spread them wide to keep him
