I could watch this stuff daily! The Florence's, Eli, Koa such amazing humans! Also props to all the filmers! Thanks for shooting and producing the content!
We got a glimpse! Fitting it's from Mama Florence. No Mama says stuff like "my other little son" without there being an unexplainable and genuine bond. Even landlocked dreamers like me can experience this kinda love. Heal well, kid, it's important. All the best and thank you!
@KoaRothman u nailed that sponsor bit about therapy. Came across sincere and not awkward. Not an easy thing to do. And of course the shootout episode of the vlog was a cool insight into the process, in the tower and hearing the judges talking and stuff is gold!
Thats unique to the shootout and maybe the vans pipe masters, whos judging panel are pro surfers that have real connections to the surfers theyre judging like same sponsor or home town etc or even old rivalries. Conversation between WSL judges in the tower is frowned upon for obvious reasons.
That last shot of John riding off on his bike was absolutely epic. It was moving somehow 💓. And I loved how proud he was of his totally prepared yeti -- missing a bar of wax 😂
Wishing you a speedy recovery and hoping you find a helmet that works for you at Pipe because it's just a roll of the dice that you don't hit the reef again on your head. Multiple concussions, as we now know, can really mess up your life forever. Glad to see you're promoting online therapy. We all know about our physical condition, but for some reason dealing with our mental condition is fraught with fear of ostracism, humiliation, and repression. We need to end that way of thinking about mental health. Thank you for all you do!
Ah Nate's mom was so sweet. We love all of the friends and family live and support. Wow. Your stitches healed so well. You had great doctors. I still have nasty scar from just 12 stitches on my leg. Glad you are ok and taking it slow. Dizziness is scary....they have PT for that.
Props to Koa for bringing attention to online therapy. So many people look up to him, and it may make it easier for them to do. Therapy can be such a great tool for many things, even just for getting to know yourself better, which can be life changing
your a trooper. i met john an his mom on Bob Burnquist's ramp, he was super humble. hey you know Bob has had 47 fractures. keep that helmet on bro your an amazing surfer
So fun seeing all you guys morning giggles … this swell just hitting Kona now ❤ Love the orange box on electric bike … so perfect for no place to park tiny Pipe street always crazy
Koach Koa-bra : Good choice on picking your stunt double & the 96712 Zippers. Well repped ! Mojo monsters. Team Koa Ohana is such a tight crew, the parts are now interchangeable. 💪
That in memory of Koa stuff you can see it on Koas face and hear it in his voice he does not like it at all, Koa never let your best friends know what gets to you because they will never back off.
Yeah Jon Jon for supporting your bro ham Koa. You the young man. Loved that December bomb around the 5th. Second reef fade into an inside bowl heck ya! Keep up the great work 👍 much aloha . Boo boo
Hey KOA, I was thinking about coming out with my own vlog.. called" this ain't living". I'm just a tile guy trying to make a living, but was blessed to surf Rockies and a few of the north shore breaks back in 98..
Please don’t push it Koa! It’s tough being dry and watching all your buds but it’s really important to let that stuff inside heal up too! Those are violent falls at Pipe and happen every session! Hell, even paddling out can scramble you good! I know you’re young, healthy, and anxious but please take care of the noggin! Go to town and ride some tourist waves and ease back in. Pipe will still be waiting for you!
Koa don’t push it bro, the brain is slow healing. I would take it nice and easy x everything happens for a reason, make the best of your down time to heal and get dialed in. Glad you’re okay, get in the hyperbaric chamber and get hooked up to some oxygen. Much love 💪🏼
Is it jst me..or is koa out of a job..!! John was so funny..🤭 lol..nice all u bros hanging out n having a good time..Cannot wait to c bck out there Koa...✌️🇳🇿
Hi Koa, I would like see you wearing a helmet in your next surfing video. Life is good, bro. I wish you a quick recovery from your head injury. Be safe there! Mahalo Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
glad to see your recovering and looking to wear a helmet maybe some surf helmets hav the MIPS system worth chkn out I dont surf always wanted too instead hav been hanggliding sice 1985 always wear a helmet 1 accident can change your life forevr be safe cheers
Nate has invited me to chill at the Florence compound if I come to Hawaii, I don’t actually surf will get some lessons from another of my pretend friends job, I also have full access to the volcom house

"John Florence everyone.....I don't know if you've heard of him before"! LOL

I was just saying that. I’ve met the Florence’s a few times. Their mother Alexandra just has the best energy. Very Very cool person.
John John is such a funky dude and I love it so much, he always makes me laugh no matter what😂❤

Probably one of my favorite livin videos, such a vibe.
Koa Florence’s stunt double with an orange box on a bike. Great video! Love it!
this was cool. ive never actually heard judges discuss the runs in real time like this. thanks koa!

That's the most relaxed I've ever seen John.
That’s not John that’s koa now 😂
John Florence , "like and subscribe " hilarious !
Haha so funny how John was calling the boys out for the wax

JJ's yeti box set up is super cool! Great edit even though you didnt surf!
Bro it’s good to see a video drop. Glad you’re recovering man. Shoutout from Boston
0.01 "I hit my head, now Japanese. I speak Japanese." Crack me up! Love you guys! RIP Koa!
Man, I love the little things like Nathan's little tuck-knee on 8:26 getting over the lip :)
Glad you’re still livin, after living through traumatic situations you get a new perspective on life,gratefulness for the simple things.
Ah Nate's mom was so sweet. We love all of the friends and family live and support. Wow. Your stitches healed so well. You had great doctors. I still have nasty scar from just 12 stitches on my leg. Glad you are ok and taking it slow. Dizziness is scary....they have PT for that.
Sponsoring done well. You’re an absolute legend for plugging that in here.

John John so funny, but the bigger picture is really special, friends and their bonds.
John John taking over is legendary. 😀
"with my box"

John for president!
Props to Koa for bringing attention to online therapy. So many people look up to him, and it may make it easier for them to do. Therapy can be such a great tool for many things, even just for getting to know yourself better, which can be life changing
It’s just a sponsorship, he’s just told to say that
Awesome vid as always! JJoa had me cracking up!
this is the best content we've had on the channel! just complete raw interactions so great to see
Glad you're recovering Koa ! Best wishes for a speedy recovery and some sweet waves once you're back charging pipe.

John takin the piss: “Don’t forget to like and subscribe” 😂

Thank you Koa. Grateful.
Amazing Vlog with Koa and the boys 🩵🤙
Such a great episode!
I'm going to check better help when I get a moment. Tanks cuz
That in memory of Koa stuff you can see it on Koas face and hear it in his voice he does not like it at all, Koa never let your best friends know what gets to you because they will never back off.
The judging insight was gold too
Lol the judge rocking a “Florence Marine X” shirt while John surfs
Yeah Jon Jon for supporting your bro ham Koa. You the young man. Loved that December bomb around the 5th. Second reef fade into an inside bowl heck ya! Keep up the great work 👍 much aloha . Boo boo
Glad you’re doing good bro!!
Ask Mama Alex to write a book about her life, adventures and single parenthood journey. It would be so EPIC !!
Hey KOA, I was thinking about coming out with my own vlog.. called" this ain't living". I'm just a tile guy trying to make a living, but was blessed to surf Rockies and a few of the north shore breaks back in 98..
Family sttuff, extended....Gotta luv it!
How cool is Jon’s mum she skates ,surfs and has brought up 3 special men that’s for sure.
Good to meet you today koa when you were parking next to the alley to walk down to pipe.
Waking up dizzy days later is super gnarly. Take it easy man!
Please don’t push it Koa! It’s tough being dry and watching all your buds but it’s really important to let that stuff inside heal up too! Those are violent falls at Pipe and happen every session!

We need more raw John clips, it’s a side we don’t see everyday.
John John…Doctor says…shoes and helmet 😎🙏..always… as accidents happen even close to home. Love you Brother
was that Barton Lynch in the judging tower?
Hi Koa, I would like see you wearing a helmet in your next surfing video. Life is good, bro. I wish you a quick recovery from your head injury. Be safe there! Mahalo Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada.
John split the scene as soon as Koa said he wanted the prize money
John content is gold
How does John get the yeti box to clip into his bike? I need that
I can say JJF had fun in the vlog lol
Happens to me all the time in contests. I surf like Gerry Lopez lol
Aka Koa did good. Amazing to have ride or die bros like this. Good to see, great example for my boy to see.
Cali sends love
Lol John is hilarious
LOVE BARTON!!!! YEAH

One of the judges was literally wearing John’s merch.
😂
Are fin chops common at pipe?
What type of electric bike is John using at the end?
Koa we live 20 minutes away!! Give us some surf lessons 😅
We suck
Great video Koa! Now go be Great!!
I 100% thought you were wearing your hat like that just because lol
Trust the process (healing) and your gut 🤘🏽
Propper judges ❤ happy days
Appreciate you guys sending me the hoodie for the giveaway! Legends 🤙🏼
Its just nice to see John happy with friends and family rather than on the WSL sh%t show.
05:57 John sounds like he's dong a JOB impersonation
Is that Barton? 🇦🇺
This must be the day 'koa', lands an air.😂...
Nah, all good mate. Get better soon.
John John pretty funny . His impersonation of koa was way off but hysterical
Goodonya Koa! Your noggin took a big rattle.. give it time to reattach to brain.. all the best from Goldie Australia
