Kelly Slater And John John Florence In The Marshall Islands

Chronicles: The making of Taylor Steele’s new film, Proximity.

Here are two of the world’s favourite surfers together, hunting for waves in the Marshall Islands. Kelly and John in a single headline? What’s not to dig? Got to click it! Need to see what’s inside! Because we’ll take a Kelly Slater or a John Florence clip any day of the week with the hopes of mind stunning ethereal surfing. And, when we saw them together, like yours, our eyes lit up. Could it be? The King and the world number one in rare form, tagging the diamond lips of tropical fantasy? If that sounds too good to be true, it is.

This is a BTS clip for Taylor Steele’s new film, Proximity. Which, after watching a few of these Chronicle episodes – the previous ones have featured Shane Dorian, Dave Rastovich, Steph Gilmore, Craig Anderson and Rob Machado – we’d be out of our minds if we weren’t highly anticipating final cut of the film to ooh and awe. But, until then, we’ll let this tease you, in the same fashion that moments ago, it teased us.
