THE DAY JOHN RAISED THE BAR AT BACKDOOR!

[@lucianodavid1331]

John John has like 5 wave of the winter contenders in one session. Crazy !

[@nrl_editz6229]

Agreed

[@zak-a-roo264]

Footage was so rare back in the 80/90s , that was easily the sickest Backdoor ride I've seen Uncle Ho get , I'm freaking blown away by all of it!!

Holy shit... Driving + eating sushi + chop sticks + face timing... I thought surfing Jaws was the most dangerous thing you did 😂👌🏼

[@Casualyoutubee]

Hahahah that’s what I was thinking

[@davidgreer6042]

It's like that all over HI all of the time. Some of the worst drivers anywhere. Watch out.

[@myauramusic]

Pure entertainment from start to end. Soundtrack through out is just magical. That drone footage at the end was the perfect touch to a great video

[@PlaySA]

I keep coming back to this video because the music, editing and surfing are just incredible. I recommend experimenting with more classical, it was super fun

[@mjl.9-19]

Great coverage of that epic day. Music perfect. Can't wait to see JJF edits. He always gets the gnarliest, deepest rides.

[@alexreid4131]

Sick music choice. Love this North Shore crew that have got into the video KZbin gig. Used to have to wait every year for the Taylor Steele movie and now with Eli, Koas (Rothman and Smith), John John, JOB etc we get it on the daily with multiple angles and insight in HD. It’s freakin awesome! Thanks guys.

That was insane you guys are on fire !! Also I love your work with the music, it makes your edits next level

[@MegaVince09]

Best video I’ve seen from your channel... Perfect music choice very Clockwork Orange. Also the waves, the antics, the mad crowd... Kudos!

[@raym5635]

I can't even surf, but I love watching all these videos. That looked like a HELL OF A DAY and Backdoor and Pipe. Particularly enjoyed Michael Ho on his ride at Backdoor. Dude's still got crazy style.

[@charlesmartin1121]

It's Easter for Eli...and Nathan's the Bunny.

@Joshua Jason Karl Just be glad we aren't in 2020 anymore.

[@DonaldLibbey]

Beautiful day!!! Weather was so nice, classic morning light offshore winds and crystal clear atmospheric conditions. Love these days. Yeah, my friend mike Ho still doing it! Grew up surfing country with him. D. Ho rip!! So stoked, I grew up in the 60's and was surfing Backdoor and pipe in the 70's and 80's. Was so nice before the crowds. Blessed!! Love you guys, always makes me smile seeing you guys surfing my favorite waves growing up. Watched you "kids" grow up on the beach from when you were a few years old. You make us proud!!!. No ka oi.

[@mateogarcia7695]

That was one of the best surf edits I have ever seen

[@theredcurrent]

Work of art here. What a session. Music is appropriate for sure. 3 Musketeers shreddin in Gnarnia

[@ghary2005]

absolutely love the Classical music with the surfing footage pulling into awesome barrels. so refreshing. Thank you!

[@aidanloeser4890]

16:36 Just one highlight of the editing. Well done Zoard. Nathan Florence is a national treasure. JJF is on a complete other planet. He looks so at peace on his board. Love the longboarders.

[@LincolnEather]

The music for this clip is all time! Loving it.

[@nickotten1358]

Absolutely INSANE!!! Best backdoor I think I’ve ever seen!!! You guys are nuts!!! Much respect ✊

[@AIREELSBIL]

Your waves were awesome!! I missed seeing the paddle into the waves, but that crowd is crazy. How do you know whos going left or right? And the turns to catch the set waves? Thanks! Keep on going love your videos!

[@wisdomoverfear2685]

Crowds ? What crowds ! Just put your head down and go ! (Just don't drop in on the locals !)

thanks good sir

[@pedromateus9575]

what is the soundtrack?

[@wallymcguire2033]

I was dancing with my daughter around the living room to it! Great vibe.

[@slademcinerney6461]

I love these videos. My face is sore from smiling. Thanks for letting us into your lives you bring so much joy to what you do and then share it with us. You guys are the best.

[@jonasm3812]

This isn't a dig, but you guys are so simple... so much humor over eggs. Love it.

[@zoardjanko]

eggs r hilaRIOUS

[@seblivefloormanager]

Dope soundtrack. I grew up associating surf with punk and metal thanks to the videos of the time. I love punk and metal, but setting surf to classical? That's classy and sick at the same time 🤙🤗 Phenomenal waves. Phenomenal riders. You and your family have clearly been sent to this realm to show us all how it's done. Thank you for your incredible footage and effervescent personality ✨️🎉🥳🤗🤙

[@sd_naturalist509]

the orchestral soundtrack was really next level, loved that

[@bassics3327]

Watching a session like this with quality music makes such a difference. Thanks!

[@Agordon-vw9lx]

I never thought that baroque music and surfing would make a perfect match like this.

[@TaylorStJohn-fp9zs]

5:54...OMG! ...scaling that face into backdoor like frickin' Spiderman. I would say John raised the bar indeed! This is some of the best Pipe surfing I have ever laid my eyes on. Nice.

[@dannyherrera2497]

Nathan, you Eli and Koa just make an amazing family... you guys could create a series of your own...thanks for reminding the rest of us the Aloha spirt is so real...

[@isaachaslam6029]

Really cool to see how you and John are competitive enough to push each other but still family enough to promote each other

[@WayneLynch69]

You're one of the best things to ever happen to surfing. Music was so "grotty" when I was a kid....your's is arriviste.

[@krustysurfer]

Yeah that one freaking wave J got was super mental!!!!! Thanks Nathan for sharing! You guys killed it and Oh that wave unca Michael got was a sick one too! Much Respect and Aloha from the Great Lakes USA and nice classical selection Nathan 😉great show!

[@cowboyCWOLF]

Love the song ! Stands out in good way ! really adds to video great editing ! Keep up the good work all involed!

[@garycollins4399]

Perfect music for the surfing!!!! It really goes with how hectic it looks out there!!!! You killed it with this one!

[@johngarin8290]

Drone shots of tidal rock shelf just gorgeous, Beautiful wrap Nat 😌🙂

[@denmun9722]

Some of the best backdoor waves I've ever seen

[@MostlyIC]

OMG, broke out laughing at 5:30 when he pops out of a long pipe that I was expecting to close out on him, the wave spit at least twice while he was in it. I'm no expert but I've vote for that being best backdoor ever, WAY TO GO !!!

[@shaneturner3677]

That’s one of the best Backdoor sessions I’ve ever watched

[@memagruder]

One of the best compilations of a surf session I've ever seen. very fun to watch

[@nicksinderson3302]

Surfing is amazing! The music is perfect...and timeless!

[@rogerdat7807]

Edited for fear of the traffic nannies plagued by cyber-righteous indignation. They judge an expert prankster completely missing the joke; only because he multi-tasked on Kamehameha Hwy while operating a motor vehicle at pedestrian speed. So glad to have caught the first two chapters in real time - the LOL's were hearty and true! The multi-course meal was served perfectly finishing with some of the best surfing ever filmed. There is content, and then there is content creativeness. You and your team exceeded the latter.

[@simonrigg825]

Don't stop the way you choose your music... they're f**king inspired! Best vlogs mate!

[@edwardj3070]

love the ending drone shots over Pupukea. amazing water patterns on the rocks. I was there in the summer. Oahu North Shore is such a nothing place. the reef was just OK for snorkeling. Foodland. unappealing food trucks. nothing to attract one's attention...and this place is the Vatican City of world surfing

[@zoardjanko]

thankss

[@MrNewhanover]

I Love the fact u are just yourself in the videos.. It makes it so entertaining !!! All 3 U Brothers are some fine fellows...

thanks so much! the vid was school, and the drone footy at the end was tear-jerking beautiful. keep em coming Florence Bros. Aloha from Big-I guy in Switzerland.

This is baroque style music so if you like this listen to Bach, Vivaldi, Marcello, Handel, or Telemann. they are some of the great baroque composers

[@ash-ip2gc]

"The Court" by Adrian Berenguer. Not sure if it's remix or just very similar / inspired by original classical pieces of music by Bach, vivaldi, marcello etc but that is the name of the track and the artist.

[@GeezerSqueezer]

Sick rides, hectic slams and some killer tunes. Nice

[@chrisculley3756]

I think I've said this now for maybe a year-and-a-half two years. Your brother John is the best in the world at back door.. he just makes it look easy with style and grace and Power and that's the trifecta right there our style and grace. But I still think the old man Jamie O'Brien is the master of pipeline..RLTW! 3/75

[@rogerdat7807]

Good to see a brother loving his brother with the props the world's best has earned. However, your surfing is right (making late sketchy backdoor drops) there too and in some GIANT measures, exceed what the contest circuit will never fully appreciate, nor be able to ever score accurately.

[@bbwvelvet]

John John is so smooth, like butterrrr. And Nathan is so fun and funny. YAY! Thanks

[@Surfhound]

Born to surf Pipe, JJ really turning it up. Beautiful footage man! You guys are killing the game on all levels.

Who said that classical music isn't hardcore ? Good mixt, original choice, perfect heavy rides by talended riders.

[@spidermancereal]

Every wave John is always in the absolute best position a person could be in that even I, a person who has never surfed a day in my life can see clear as day. Nathan is no slouch himself and is right up there with some of the best but John has that X factor that 1 in million people seem to have.
