John Florence Has Revelation ‘You Don’t Have To Surf With Other People Out?’

Is Ehukai the most entertaining wave to watch on the North Shore? 

“This might be my favorite kind of wave, the way the water just sucks back into the wave as it’s forming and how it just makes you commit,” says John Florence. 

When the world’s top 0.01% of surfers have a <10% make rate it makes for a spectacle. John’s YT channel indexes highly on the sandbar located a stone’s throw east of the Banzai. His last clip filmed there Someone Has To Go – currently sits on 263K views – not an insignificant number of eyeballs for a wave mysterious to many. 

The opening aerial sequence is wonderful, nice work by Erik Knutson.
