Eyewitness on the North Shore says Florence surfing very fine with many hacks, carves, wraps and hand jams. Everything but everything but airs.
Miles Davis is playing on the radio and I am eating eggs lightly dusted with parmigiana plus a potato, red pepper, onion medley while gently rocking in front of a Tyrrhenian cave just a stone’s throw from Positano.
The water is a ridiculous cobalt blue and clear, turquoise near the cliffs and while my life has entered a comically decadent period Hawaii’s John John Florence’s has not.
Eyewitness accounts from the North Shore suggest he is out daily and shredding.
Surfing very fine with many hacks, carves, wraps and hand jams.
Everything but everything but airs.
No board leaving lip.
Surfing’s Olympic debut, as you know well, is mere weeks away and as of time of writing, there is no typhoon headed Japan’s wave in the forecast.
Can gold be won on two-to-three-foot lappers without flying?
I think no. I think not at all. Kelly Slater likely thinks the same as me but he will have to think that from his couch while watching history like the rest of us.
John John and Kolohe will be part of this history.
I think Kelly will be sad. I think sad and lightly depressed.
fix your fucken discust settings chas…
A possible tactical move. Adapting his surfing to the yet to be released ISA approved judging criteria.
All I care is that he goes & Kelly doesn’t!
I’m slightly disappointed these musings from the yacht don’t end with “dictated but not read”.
To err is human.
To air is who man.
JJs gonna bow out at the last minute and let Slater go, you can book on it.
If Slater had made it his bio would likely be the only interesting thing about surfing in the olympics as far as non surfers are concerned. Kind of a shame but ultimately the more boring surfing appears the better.
If 2-3′ is the over/under for surf heights (whether they run or not is another story), I’ll take the over. Anyone want that bet?
Did you forget they just opened a wave tank there?
Plan B.
No, but I don’t think the tank is an option.
Don’t bet on it.
Can I have the napkin you wrote that on?
John John da Kelly ohey 4 da win….usa aok!…what’s a diaroama…go GOAT gonoa
Do you use Google charts for Nav?

(too fuzzy to read here, but well worth a search)
Jon Florence will end up hurting himself worse. Kelly won’t be “on his couch”, but I’ll put down a stack that he WON’T be on some boat in the Med.
Well I’d assume he’d sail over anyway.
I’m in Negatano. It’s fucked.
Fuck these “Blessed” stickers I see on cars in Hawaii. I’m starting my own line.

I always wanted to start a punk band called Resentful Alive.

Not joining the Olympic team could be a honestly boost for John and his brand.
The Olympic surfing sell out will showcase everyone and brands associated with the prostitution of surfing.
Longtime lovers will watch and choose spend there $$$ away from the pimps
I’m naming you now longtom as a pimp, checkout chick !
If you promote the wsl?
Fuck the wsl?
Talk about being a grunting pig in the middle taking big business cock deep in the throat anyway he can ?
Have you seen JJF’s sponsors? He’s already sold out which is the exact reason he is going to the Olympics on a bum knee.
LOL John has sold out long ago, y’all are jsut to enamored to see it.
No mention of full wrap…?Fun da mentals!
