John John Florence just beat Mason Ho, Seabass and Kelly Slater in the final of the 2015 Volcom Pipe Pro. There’s one of the least surprising but most pleasing sentences you’ll read this week. John rode three waves only, locking away an 8.43 and 9.20 on his first two rides… and it was all over within six minutes. If he’d landed the slob he tried on his second scoring ride, it would’ve been a 10, and probably one of the three best waves ridden on the North Shore this winter.

More to come soon…
