BTS: John Florence Gets A Mullet And Makes The Semis At D-Bah

A little belated in the vlog world, but we’ll take it.

Reading Time: < 1 minute

You have to act quick in the vlogosphere. Three months after the fact – the delay in this case – isn’t acting quick whatsoever, but we’ll take it anyway, just because it’s John. It’s a quick six minute BTS hit with John Florence on the Gold Coast and I needn’t detail whats inside in order for you to watch. But I’ll do it anyway. 

John lost to Kolohe Andino in the semis at D-Bah, and the video entails everything up to that point: the non-existent bank at Snapper, the pretty good waves at D-Bah, the shaving of a mullet into John’s head, someone throwing bread off a roof, John waxing his board, and that strange night where a bunch of surfers look kind of silly in suits.

Watch, if you please.
