John John Florence vs Jack Robinson | Margaret River Pro 2022 FINAL Heat Replay

Heat Replay of John John Florence vs Jack Robinson at the Margaret River Pro FINAL
Margaret River is a battle for survival. Raw swells slam the rugged coastline and even the world’s best surfers feel small against the untamed power of Western Australia. This year, adding to it all is the new mid-season cut, which will reduce the Championship Tour competitors by a third to the top 22 men and 10 women. Who will make the cut and continue their hunt for a World Title, and who will leave Margaret River headed for the Challenger Series?

So epic, was the exact final I was hoping for. Wish they got more waves but oh well, congrats Jack. I’m a huge fan of both surfers

[@billcarson4566]

I love the return of power surfing. That wave of Jack's 2 huge power turns lightning fast and radical. Well done jack.

[@dustinmccrindle343]

These two, Ethan, Nat, Jordy and a few others are really being rewarded for their approach. I appreciate a good, critical, air. But rail work, control and smoothness have to still be rewarded! Glad it was justly rewarded through this comp!

[@KanyeKetchup]

No big deal

[@imnotanalky]

Yes!! Both of these guys lay it over on the rail as good as anyone. The power top turn is something special

[@davelospinoso9022]

Was wrong about Jack thought his rail game wasn't there, his really been working on his rail game. And to land that air reverse after missing that air is incredible. Good to see someone who isn't Brazilian doing airs.

Great final to watch, Beautiful surfing from both John John and Jack. Obviously Jack deserve it too.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@Sol_Weird]

Congratulations to both competitors!!

[@juanjohntramos7196]

I’m for both surfers , that 1 move air and getting a 8.0 point is not right . It over scored . ( it seem like favoring local) If Jack did 2 or 3 moves and air , then , YES , he deserves to get a good score of 6 to 9 points or more . That 1 air and no other moves before or after . The point should be 5 to 6 .

[@Thornton019hockey]

Yeah I do think JJF’s last wave deserved a higher score maybe even to take 1st just because of the combo including a small air that he landed. It didn’t have as much power but was a solid combo. Jack’s big air was great but an 8 for one move is a bit over scored, so not scoring JJF’s last wave higher than they did was weird

[@mattbgraves]

I love both surfers, but JJF won that final. I agree, just doing an air on a wave( even the difficulty of the wave and low probability of landing), that score was too high.

[@mattm6654]

i just thought the jjf 8.5 was a tad high, the back foot disconnecting on the drop wallet move for me means I would have given it 7.9.........Jack won, truly.

[@jeffhartwig5283]

5:00 JJF ripped that turn like Clay Marzo!!

[@mark2talk2u]

JJF got a 5.4 for the only tube. Jack got a 8.07 for the only air. Both were solid. Neither were epic. Difference of 2.67??? What do you think?

[@spliffun]

The air was pretty epic tho !!! Not easy to Land somthing Like that

[@camerondavid8089]

I was thinking the air was a little over scored because of the landing but then again if he would’ve stopped it in the flats I could see it going 9+. Barrel would’ve easily gone into 8s-9s if jjf could’ve added a finishing turn.

[@KanyeKetchup]

Kelly aired

[@neildegouveia6127]

JJ was robbed this time.. he won that heat hands down

[@williammartin2842]

That tube had a high degree of difficulty. Controlled slide turn alone was a solid 9.0 Judges favor the local lad.

[@fiddlestickzmuzik]

I would have scored Johns wave where he disconnects from the tail a lot more, that was incredible surfing in a comp, that stuff is usually free surfing material.

[@bonsummers2657]

which minute-second mark?

[@fiddlestickzmuzik]

@@bonsummers2657 yeah the move around the 4 min mark that was a 9.5 or 10 score that wave for mine, you don't see that kind of radical disconnect from the board often in comp surfing, it was high risk high reward in the most critical part of the wave imo.

[@msalvs]

0:51 if you look closely you can see Deivid Silva floating in the channel

[@hiimdex5562]

The Air was a lil bit overscored... maybe a 7?! But glad jack won at home

[@bartdeking]

6 only 1 maneuver on an average wave.

[@Eventual-Visitor]

They are always overscoring the Brazilians for airs. I guess it would be strange not overscoring the house boy. Congratulations for both Jack and John.

[@skaterhugs1147]

I dont understand how people say this.....in what world is 2-3 turns more difficult or impressive than a 8 ft high 360? Like is that just a carry over from legacy surfing/style? An air is clearly a more impressive maneuver, especially on these non-barrel waves that everyone is doing turns on

[@luminisant]

@@skaterhugs1147 But JJ's barrel deserved a 5?

[@skaterhugs1147]

@@luminisant if that big ol air only deserved an 8 then yes, or maybe a 6 or so. that said, i will concede that they tend to underscore barrels on waves where they don't happen too often (happens to JJ and Slater all the time). I'm not sure why that is the case

[@djaniquinn]

I knew it was wrap for JJF after Jack stomped that air. Sometimes it feels like if JJF doesn't completely dominate the entire heat he doesn't always pull through. Still my favorite surfer in and out of competition.

Wow.. An 8.1 for a half rotation frontside air! We all remember Italos backside 360 air where he got a 1.2 on a giant wave.. Think about that for a second

[@ivanjuz9747]

if He got 1.2 for an air reverse on a giant wave he definitely did not land it.

[@felipesancler465]

2 things to point out after this heat. Firs thing: Aussies started appreciate the air game, now that they finally have a surfer that can land some mediocres airs. Second thing: JJF’s airs SUCKS, it’s just shameful, he should never attempt it in front of any crowd.

[@ivanjuz9747]

[@marcusteblano6376]

The dropping swell in the last part of the heat played into Jack's hand. Jack knew how to pick the waves and get it done.

[@charlynnchock678]

Right because jjf kills huge surf

[@marcusteblano6376]

A masterful performance by Jack throughout the event. Local knowledge definitely played a big part in his success at Main Break- not an easy wave, esp. at size. He did what he needed to do in every heat, nothing more nothing less, usually coming from behind. I really like his style; functional surfing without making it look too flashy. A zen performance to be sure.

It came down to each riders 2nd highest rides. JJF had 4 non critical turns while Jack at amazing pace, timing and control pulled off that insane air. His degree of difficulty was far greater and riskier than JJF’s 4 turns. That is why the air won it

The live chat regained its meaningfulness with important debates taking place (mostly revolving around world issues such as religion, global warming, the woke culture, Kaipo being high on coke and Deivid watching barges float by from the channel). Beautiful, when’s the next brazzo-free final? Soon I hope.
