A turn that makes me red in the face!
Hurley could not have picked a better person to follow with a camera for twelve months or a better time in which to follow. The series is slick but, more importantly, feels significant. Maybe because we are witnessing a unique talent coming entirely into his own.
Yes, Twelve shines and episode 5 finds John John Florence in Tahiti. Remember when I said he wasn’t going to compete at Trestles because I had inside information that he was injured? Look at how right I was! Here’s an exclusive photo of John John hobbling with a cane!
But want to know what Blonde Ambition went and did to me? He went to Trestles and competed! Here’s an exclusive clip of John John Florence giving ‘er hell on a meaty turn. Really leaning into that balky knee!
And boy is my face red. I will never go off half-cocked like that again, predicting nonsense etc. Oh who am I kidding! Guess what I just heard? Dane’s new brand ain’t called Destroyr and is being unleashed on the world any day now!
But back to John John Florence. Episode 5 releases tomorrow. Here its teaser. Gorgeous! My face! So red!
but you WERE right about john. He did that one great cut back, then absolutely nothing the rest of that heat, basically just floated. it was obvious that he felt it hurt and didn’t want to push the injury. he almost said something about it after but didn’t want to whine about injury being why he lost. he even said at beginning of comp that he just wanted to try to surf a heat or two. why would he say that if not injured?
I am going to wrap myself up in Danes brand in an attempt to appear young and remain relevant . And it’s not going to work.
The same could be said for Dane himself.
Stab/Grit blood feud.
When has it not been?
I’m going to take a punt that Dane’s new brand will be called chapter 11.
I can’t work out on my tiny phone screen if they trying to disguise that wave or is jjf surfing switch or is it not even him.
How come BG didn’t get an “exclusive” along with Stab and Monster Children? I saw the telltale BG tabloid font in the intro…
Probably because BG have never produced exclusive content with Dane. I imagine stab put a big cock block on anything exclusive from Dane going to BG
You should have seen how they cock blocked li’l ol’ Banks from us!
So…Dez and Wheels are in competition with each other?
Bit awkward.
Dane’s new brand?! Is it to be the adrenaline shot to the heart that this overdosed (dying) world of surf junkies needs?
