John John in Europe -- LE VIEUX MONDE EN ROUGE

°°The Old World in Red°°
---
Never released footage from the European leg of the 2017 ‪@wsl‬ tour. Shot during the World Title race with Gabriel Medina, John John and friends find endless beach days in France and Portugal. Before the trip, our friends ‪@reddigitalcinema‬ loaned us an EPIC X Monochrome that we shot with an infrared OLPT.
Short Film by: Erik Knutson, Spencer Klein, Jared Butler

That fu**ing slammed from beginning to end. Brilliant edit -- food for the soul during a time of BS where someone can win a world title in day. John is in a class of his own. The first and last airs both were things of beauty - because they were a part of the surfing and fit in naturally, rather than like a gymnastics event. And as always, beautiful work by Erik

[@AlexanderBoutilier]

well said sir

[@oliguayasebesteves166]

100%

[@lucasfreiberg]

Yeah!! Someone on insta told me landing in the flat was cool. John hits a lovely ramp on the way down

[@jonathancaliguire]

I feel like I should have had to pay money to watch that. Inspired surfing and stunning cinematography. You guys slay.

[@erob6823]

Dont give them any ideas😅

[@Morteums]

Time is your most expensive currency.

[@jarrodtoomey6680]

Becareful what you wish for GROM!!!

[@graemeandrews7344]

[@mateowm4224]

John John’s surf is the most beautiful art

[@zebulunashcroft6623]

That shot of the seagull landing near the guy fishing... Perfect.

[@96792HAMMAH]

Ahhh more hidden Hurley footage, what we wanna see is the hidden O'Neill footage bro💯

[@elijahguillemin2607]

Longgggg ways back right there

[@hiimdex5562]

Yeaaaa

[@bapple7844]

[@JJF]

Let's see what we can do!

[@MrLeeson660]

that was incredible! That section at 14:30 holy fuck that had me out of my seat😂 in terms of raw talent the goat imho

[@felixslothower6180]

Love the touch of french inspired production!

[@jasonlapean3868]

I like the way you see the world around you. Legend

[@wwgbert]

I think John John's " no claim, claim" is to make Erik and Ross laugh during editing sessions. Killer work guys and I 2nd the idea of old O'Neil footage if possible.

[@nyceam]

Wow, such a beautiful film showcasing a surfer who has no equal in raw talent. Awesome cinematography, love the shots especially of Portugal (my home). Shows JJF at the height of his powers. Breathtaking! Hope he has a chance to show this type of surfing again on the competitive stage.

[@jonoedwards4195]

Great show Kids! So sick already. Beauty Double J, Oh YeeeeeaaaahH!

[@shreddt]

This is BEAUTIFUL. ... FRANCE was one of my best times on the QS. Ward , Yoemans and I would travel together for that leg. Best beachies ever with classic memories .. Thank you for the Nostalgia. Love your surfing and Kolohe too. Mental edit Mental surfing !!!

[@nunoribeiro1298]

My favorite surfer in my home the place where I start surfing 🤩🤙🏻 I saw in the beach this heat in Supertubos Thank you guys

[@bernardalves1297]

The shot at 10:06 of Kiron Jabour on the white sand feels like a sci-fi movie scene 🍿. Very weird and pleasant at the same time, love it!

[@hurricanemartin7022]

This edit was insane John John is probably the best surfer to watch and I can learn so much from just watching his edits

[@evolvefromnow6735]

Such a slick piece of work. Nailed it

[@johnsavala8202]

Erik & Jacob, Thank you! Your contributions are so appreciated.

[@jamesdegennaro]

Every one of your films seems so fresh and novel. I love Parallel Sea productions. 🙏

[@monicacampbell4600]

[@FlexOnMars]

This is f&*ken great. Watched it wearing headphones - hats off to the whole team, the sound is incredible, along with everything else. And wow, the section featuring John's epic performance at Hossegor - another all time performance in competition, loved the view from the beach. Blazing form!

[@dirtyintel5668]

What an amazing film. Thank you to all involved. The thoroughness of excellence is the resonant frequency that creates the bones of this beautiful beast.

Really impressive. These are great moments in time from varying perspectives. The vibe really gels it though - vibe you all have. And then there is the surfing of course. Epic! Totally stoked

[@gabriellugo4128]

The most impressive part of this edit was that crazy duck dive 😂😂

[@dallaskolotylo9064]

Absolutely beautiful. Just a shame it took five years to render that red 4K footage

[@jackharper8565]

This is sick

[@Aikahiloop]

A+

[@TheSEA77]

Sick video.

[@ae333]

These close up shots of the CT event put into perspective how heavy some of these sections are. It's was more fun to watch than typical WSL coverage, keep doing it!!! Also, it would be sick to see some film like this with Medina and Italo boostin in it as well.

[@wayfaringstrangerreviewer6458]

Brilliant

[@BradT_Herping]

Cool to watch kolohe and John get along hahaha

[@HoStevie]

19 minutes of pleasure

[@theufoexperience3859]

Gorgeous work. At the very least you should submit something like this to a couple film festivals. But maybe you're wasting your time at a film fest and it's better just to share it the way you're doing. I've heard about this guy off and on for years. But I've never really seen him surf or subscribed to his channel. Of course I've done both of those now. And I have to admit I always wondered why he wasn't simply John Florence, but goes by the name John John Florence. And now after watching him surf, maybe people use two first names for him because someone with that level of skill is beyond just one first name. I hope that's not insulting, but it's one of those weird thoughts that runs through my head from time to time when I'm faced with something different.

[@christopherbelmonte5145]

RIP hurley

[@nowindnowavesnogirls-nofun4079]

got the feeling after these turns it went slowly backwards.

[@bobhunt5997]

you got that surf / foiling/sailing thing down so put some more wind under your wings try hanggliding take a tandem you probably would excell
