Watch: John John Florence // Slow It Down
With a tight focus and high frame rate, JJF and crew cruise into the first swell of the winter on the North Shore.
Even when it's sped up - click 'settings', then 'playback speed' - to twice the speed it's still slower than a Tim Bonython edit, so let's see how the comments stack up.

The only good thing about the slow mo is we an see how on edge JJF gets his board. I m a huge fan of his but its just too slow unless you use it for training purposes ?
Really great to see just how well he controls his edge n drift... bloody good surfer.
Here's a pretty old clip of JJF, slow-mo, tightly cropped and paired to a cool Black Sabbath stoner track. I think it works well. It showcases his style and technique, quiet hands and superb rail work, not to mention his preternatural tube sense.
Sickness
I need a tissue.
To ride like JJ is.. is..... I am okay.
some of the best waves ever surfed in a QS!
Yeah ten minutes of slowmo is a bit long
These guys made some 1 minute slow motion videos. It's perfect.
Awesome slomo vids. Tks for posting this.
zzz
I would like to see John Johns best wave at Kirra, super slow... take up 10 minutes!
Here is a request for you old mate.
Unusually uninspiring from jjf - maybe i’m just content saturated coz there was another jjf slomo about a year ago I liked... time for a break
any idea what it is JJF is 'waxing' his board with - comes about 1/2 way through; doesnt sound like wax, some other more permanent substance
I sounds like they got creative with a peel ply to make the bumps
When did KS get tatts (3.10m)?
He didn't . It's not him.
Derr.
