Single Fins at Pipeline
Спорт
We pulled some old @PyzelSurfboardsInternational glass-on single fins from under the house one morning, and paddled out to Pipe. My board was a 5'10 channel bottom.
Featuring @JJF @NathanFlorence and Ivan Florence. January 2022.

John gets more tubes in one morning than I do all year.

I like how stoked and surprised you mom was with the results “you should long board” lol great!!
Ahhhh, takes me back to the days of old! Vertical drops, huge, carving bottom turns and roundhouses off the lips. Life wasn't so "snappy" on single fins! These guys now are doing things we never thought possible! I grew up looking to Lopez, Ho, Rabbit, Ian Cairns, Thomson etc. to show the way. You guys of today are incredible and I salute you, and your style!

@2:45 John gets a WotW contender on a single 😂 and Ivan looks born for that board 🤙
I feel old now! My first board was a single fin, my second a favorite was a Thruster channel bottom. But I dig the 60 sound track!
Nice work, I am from Nebraska, but surfing has always looked like such a fun and beautiful sport. This channel is amazing.

Ain't that far to Waco! (in the grand scheme of things!)
I am a 58 year old surfer from Morocco started to surf at age 8 and quit , then came back to this beautiful sport few years ago. For me , and opinions will differ, I can say without a doubt that JJ Florence is by far the most talented surfer I have ever seen, since Shaun Thomson (which I met in South Africa). his flow is just magic as if he is just part of the wave....PS I still surf my old Mark Richard 1979 single fin and it does great!

John John is very impressive. I love watching him also.
John I used to ride a Horan inspired double winged swallow tail single fin with a massive fin back in the 80's. That thing was absolute magic. Singles have a glide that is unparalleled. However - they are a real bear to pump up to speed and have a nasty habit of sliding out unexpectedly on steep drops. IMO the modern equipment is far superior in almost every way, except that glide, mmmmmm what a feeling! Enjoy, be positive setting the rail, dont slide out, it hurts. Greetings from Kommetjie Cape Town (we met once at the Green Room restaurant)
A couple of years ago I was having beers with my bro and we were watching Morning of the Earth. I got over-inspired and the following day I ordered a single fin board (a oneee!) from Adams Surfboards UK. Needless to say in my dreams I imagined I would be doing stuff like in this video. No man, this didn't happen. The reality is I am going straight along the wave and never in the right place at the right time to turn it properly. So much harder than it looks, props to the guys back in the day!

Keep at it! Learning how to surf alternate equipment of all shapes, sizes, and fin set ups will improve your surfing no end
That's a classic. Clean lines. cheers
I've forgotten what it was like to surf a single & after watching yourself John John 🤙I shall leave that experience 40 years in my past 👌
That was fun to watch 🙌🏽✨
Reminds me of my very first new board, had all the extras, channel bottom with a stinger swallowtail. lol, love those single fin lines .

Cutting through like butter, as usual!!! Beautiful, WOW. WOOHOO!!!!!!!! 😁🤠
Smooooooooooth. The sound, the waves and the single fin Boards . Sweeeeet
Nathen should use the single fin more often!
The barrels are fantastic too watch but it’s when he cuts deep into the wave and throws that huge what we call in water skiing a rooster 🐓 tail. Thing of beauty!!
Great video, thanks mate.
one of my buddies rides that same board just a lot shorter with a snubbed nose. He has a blast on it
Jajajajajajaj it's a re-watch to the 10th power with this show,, next week prob another its so smooth to watch J Rocks styling its mind boggling.
Love the music !!!
really nice John
"You think it's going to work?" Answered first wave. Yes!
Brilliant!!
Great music choice with this vid!
Ivan crushin
🔥🔥🔥 As Usual !
So sickkk brother!!!
I think your brother really suited that blue board with those waves, I could watch 5 minutes of that.. throwing in the request! :D
Amazing bro
you make it look so easyyyyy
You guys are the best
Well that was just a feel good edit ☺️👏🏼🤙🏼
song?
JJF, mom Florence thank you 😃🤙 single looked awesome 😀 your moms right ,so when you finish with short boards then become a long board world champion that would be cool right..?
What song is this? It's so dope!
The tail pad made it seem JJF was riding a 5'4" sawn-off haha.
Meu Deux JJ, isso é impressionante, incrível 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Dang looks like it worked pretty well for you! Maybe should have rode that in the pipe contest haha
Brother Trifecta!
Nice! Whose music?
Awesome :)
just beautiful!! not be so big that even in my imagination, I might be able to catch that wave… i’m also quite impressed with a very active surfer on a red board taking the left in most of the sequences!

Ivan AKA mr cool has spent some time on single fins by the looks!
Wicked surfing
So sick
Single fin is the way to go; only kind I ride :)
Mom's rule!

Unbelievable. Next step alais, It will also make it look easy
Nominating JJF for the next Stab electric acid test.
YOU RIP MAN
Jerry must be proud.
Cool
Swallows work good on single fins.
Dawn patrol for the win.
Good Call Mom!!! ;)))))
You should start longboarding, which I doubt you don’t already do, and post a couple vids, JJF x Log Raps !!
Now on a twin!
Anyone know the song??
Johnny could surf a sack of potatoes!
I don’t know what the Florence brothers took, blue pill or red pill? But whatever, i want that pill 😂
Ivan for Mayor
I don't understand how he made the last one 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Oohh yeah okay
Yo John i hope you see this comment, you know how random companies will get people to go over other people's footage. It would be really REALLLLLY cool to see gerry lopez watching this video and talking over it (keep the music in the background cuz its also awesome).

'Point and shoot' were my exact thoughts too. Also deeply love them. The hold in the barrel is like nothing else. Absolute dogs to turn at beach breaks though!
You consult with Mason for this soundtrack???
Cool story and waves but in all reality these boards are really not like the singles most of us grew up riding. These are still wafer thin and light by comparison to the old McCoys et al that were 3.1/4" thick and had 2-3 layers of heavy glass. Much harder to ride those boards back in the day. Would love to see guys like JJF give one of those oldies a go.
“Single Fins…” I thought they meant sharks 😊

Point and shoot 🚩🚩🚩
Surely the single fin video should be followed by a twin fin video? 😉
Honestly, i can't tell the difference between 1 or 10 fins
🦆🦆🦆🦆
And to think I would be scared just to stand on the sand and watch it. And hes single finning!?
: )
Single fins are great for tube riding! Not very good for much else.............There's a reason we switched to thrusters!
John gets like 20 barrels a sesh I get 1 barrel in my life
Deje vu still it's straight down then full bottom turn into the stall like kick the nose up till the the boards vert then it slaps down your dead stopped getting sucked up the face till you pop the fin and rail slide down getting spit ih yeah got the t shirt
Cream
Freak could ride anything

Now go look back at Buttons.... Or Larry Bertleman..... You'll get a real appreciation for just how sick they were. The cutbacks they were doing in '77..... without leashes. The leash cup had not been invented yet..... neither had polyurethane....

@@CJ-bw2nm No.... A leash is a polyurethane cord.... epoxy is what they started using instead of resin with fiberglass..... The first leashed were bungee cords. Then polyurethane.... Maybe they're using epoxy for leashes now. But I doubt it..... But the real point was how fluid the cutbacks Buttons, Larry and Mark Liddell were doing in the mid to late 70's. The "no leashes" part was just for flavor.
how it works. U start learn and ride a single fin your first day of surfing ever. U ride a 6'0 pintail for 3 yrs in every condition. Than u change to tri fin. That is the secret. Your welcome.
bruh Ukraine on deaths door and u Single Finning at pipe?!
drop is so slow
