those waves look about as difficult to paddle into at that size as it gets. Amazing being able to wipe out on those and not get broken or give up. Youth + world class talent + resilience
This is really a great video. Perfect music choice, nice comments. It has the vibe of when coming back from an amazing surf session. I keep watching it 4 years later!
Nice to see these guys having fun. When we were younger hot surf dogs we surfed all kinds of crazy places.. backwash, behind boats, closeouts, wind chop hell, in-between rocks in the lineup... these were some of the best days in retrospect. Aloha
that helps to understand how he gets to do the impossible on regular basis !after that stuff all barrels looks so easy... great video ! my favorite surfer on the planet ! and the narration is great
Nothing more then the reason we came down from the stars to ride the barrel and find happiness if you can make it out ... Nate JJ is great to feel the happiness and joy you guy's kindly share with us.. ThunderShakas. From Odin.
Refreshing to see an under 5 minute strictly surfing video. I'm tired of contributing a view to these ungodly vlogs with all CAPs click bait titles. Always classy John, Thank you!
They do that because of the youtube search algorithm. Whoever is managing John John's channel should do the same, clickbait titles get like 30% more views
Back in the early 2000's it was basically only bodyboarders out at Gums. On rare occasion a surfer would paddle over to Gums and take one on the head. This was back when John John and Nate were little kids with big blond afros playing out in front of Rocky Rights. Now, 20 years later, its so awesome to see surfers finally being comfortable pulling into closeout shorebreak
jeeesh, you guys surf stuff most would not even consider back in the 60’s! .... as a teen surfing Hale’iwa back then, I did not like how the rights ended at all in small kine stuff ... so it blows my mind what you guys do with it all now! ... gorgeous! 💕💕💕
Those waves have got to be the most beautiful I've seen so far. I've never been on a surfboard but those kinds of waves would the kind to tempt me to go get my ass handed to me :-)
in the 70s we called that a wicked shorebreak. "A good thing and Big fun then as well. I hope some day to maybe surf again in the right conditions , I am still durable but older and heavier.
Grew up in Boca/Delray. Couldn't take the gutless washing machine so I've been living in the dream the past 8 years in Lima, Punta Hermosa, Peru. World class region. Because its cold. Only surf with the locals.
It’s honestly crazy to see someone who gets barreled for a professional living still get amped off a good wave. Epic
i don't know how john can manage to look stylish even in that==and how did he come out of that last one?! a pleasure to watch.
Can't believe he came out of that one!!!! Or he was so calm and cool

This is really a great video. Perfect music choice, nice comments. It has the vibe of when coming back from an amazing surf session. I keep watching it 4 years later!

Jjf the GOAT imho raw talent. Insane wave looks scary af!
jjf is truly great. you have seen his greatness his entire career. he's just great. best at everything in the game
Great music
The novelty of letting the ocean give you unexpected magic
This is great for your knees!
Love it when you're paddling into those and you see the sandy water fall sucking down the bar in front of you, epic.
last two clips are amazing
Wow those last two shots were some of the best I've ever seen. Kudos and well done
That looks like such a awesome sandbar!
One of the all time best surf vids.

You and Nathan are truly incredible surfers. Just keep being you.
You guys are living the dream. The Florence
Family is RAD⚡️

this is easily the best surf edit i ever watched, prolly only second to Dane Reynolds' "Excerpt"
2:00 that’s the feeling.. Nice one Champ. 🙌🏽
Great way to have some Bro time! Great narrating by Ricky Bobby. John and barrels is truly amazing to watch
So rad especially that last one!
Great music and editing!!
Nothing more then the reason we came down from the stars to ride the barrel and find happiness if you can make it out ...
Nate JJ is great to feel the happiness and joy you guy's kindly share with us.. ThunderShakas. From Odin.
Crazy, tumultuous surf soup!!!! YIKES. Whoa. INTENSE 🤪!!!
Now that was some ""SICK"" Sand Bar Action!!! That last one at the end was ""INSANE""😳💪👍
I can't even imagine paddling out, catching a close out then having to paddling out again in that heavy wave.....
Fall in the first wave of the set, two wave hold down while with a broken board and leash stuck in the impact zone getting 4 more on the head after...

cdogholmes2 dead right give the viewers what they want to watch Surfing! Not dribbling shit for 15 mins haha

1:56 he's just the best surfer in the world
So fast to his feet.... insane talent yeeew
Breathtaking. Cool music, too. Next winter... God willing --- I'll be there.
There are fun waves that look good. Then there is John John who makes waves like this look the funnest waves ever. That's an entertaining surfer!
Most enjoyable surfing vid I’ve ever watched
The production quality on these vids are excellent
everything JJF does on a board it appears as next level. Super fun to watch. Mahalo for posting 'em brah.
the world deserves more of this
we probably don't deserve it, but i for one would be very grateful for it :)
Beautiful footage as per usual! n great music too :-D

No matter the wave John can make it out of every barrel
The framing on that last wave is just perfect. Feels like JJF casts a spell to get out of that one
Like a mini shipsterns!
John john is not even done but he is the the best of all time
That intro. Soothing af.
Love u guys.
Beautiful footage
jeeesh, you guys surf stuff most would not even consider back in the 60’s! .... as a teen surfing Hale’iwa back then, I did not like how the rights ended at all in small kine stuff ... so it blows my mind what you guys do with it all now! ... gorgeous! 💕💕💕
Amazing, by far always producing the best surf videos and footage. I had butterflys the hole video, stay safe, much love. To some day
3:50 has to be the cleanest barrel ive seen in a minute
Johns silent stoke is awesome to watch.
Insane and very good. In the playground. A fan of the Medina and you. Congratulations and welcome back. Brazil loves you too.
Shore break!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!
I would be drowned in 5 minutes trying to take a barrel like this
Well than you are a good waterman. I would not last 3 minutes....
That’s how you learn to rip, living there and having that in your backyard..!!
Lucky you live Hawai’i
🤘🤘
Straight incredible!!! Skills on skills!!
Those waves have got to be the most beautiful I've seen so far. I've never been on a surfboard but those kinds of waves would the kind to tempt me to go get my ass handed to me :-)
This video makes me question reality. JJf you are a wizard
These videos are a work of art
Awesome awesome very very cool looks like so much fun thank you for sharing
Great Video, I find it really impressive how you guys manage to occasionally find control in something that appears so chaotic.
That last blue wedge was SO sick!!!!
That ender!?!!! So sick!!!
bro this man has such WONDERFUL barrel technique
fingers crossed the boys do the yearly round of North Shore, would love to see another video like this one !!
4:04 that damned smile
That last wave 4:06 NO WAY...!!
Du grand art! Such a pleasure to see this guys surf :D
Crazy quality skills .. great to see this stuff away from competitive rubbish
pure love of the ocean!
Looks like the mini version of Shipstern Bluff.
insane.....Florence bros killing it.
my gosh what a beautiful video
I love when he shakes his head @ 1:30 and at 1:50 he keeps'em still. 😎🌬️🏄🌊🌴🏖️
amazing production quality
Such a sick vid! Love the music too🤙🏻
in the 70s we called that a wicked shorebreak. "A good thing and Big fun then as well. I hope some day to maybe surf again in the right conditions , I am still durable but older and heavier.
The music is perfect 👌🏽
IWishIWasKelly Slater the name of the music?
Perfect beach and perfect day for a family swimming 👽
WOW..last barrel was so sick !
Anthony Lazaro - Strangers In Disguise is one of the soundtracks for you guys that are interested
Peace
Cheers mate
I’m thinking it’d be real comforting to have a board sponsor😁
loved watching this!
2:40 that looks like Florida the day before a hurricane, except the water's blue.
Grew up in Boca/Delray. Couldn't take the gutless washing machine so I've been living in the dream the past 8 years in Lima, Punta Hermosa, Peru. World class region. Because its cold. Only surf with the locals.
they’re making that look so easy but that would be ridiculously hard!
I'll take a chill party wave over a bully sandbar wave any day of the week!
4:25 Are you kidding me?!?! :O
❤ absolutely epic. best waves ever :)
So cool!🔥🤘🏻😎
The KING!
That last wave 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
Awesome video 🤙🏻
It is a big dream of mine to come surfing the North Shore one day ( I live all the way in Belgium though), hopefully I'll see you there!
The North Shore is amazing, that's for sure. You have all kind of waves so just be respectful, choose spots at your level and have fun!
greetz vanuit België!
Best video yet!
Epic 🙌🏽
Just jokes to them would be near death experiences for the average surfer. Ever impressive crew.
Wave of the winter on that last one for sures
It’s neat how the barrel forms
Pure Surf Pleasure....nice
