FORM feat. John John Florence

Thank you to everyone who contributed to this project. It took many different shapes over the years to get to where it is now. It was originally started in December 2017 as a film that focused more on a group of friends who grew up learning to surf Pipeline. Through different creative rounds, and a couple years on the shelf, it eventually evolved into an idea that followed the imagined point of view of Pipeline, with a perspective narrated by local musician Paula Fuga. It was a fun challenge to create a visual history of the wave, but this is not meant to be a complete story. There are too many people to name who have become a part of Pipeline’s history over the years; they could never be fit into one short film. Thank you again to everyone who helped us put this together. The project is dedicated to Derek Ho, and those like him who have dedicated their life to surfing Pipeline. – JJF

A new perspective

A new perspective

Surfing J-bay South Africa with Dylan Lightfoot. We used the GoPro MAX 360 camera to capture Jefferys Bay, the best right hand point break wave in the world from a never before seen perspective using a 3rd-person mount by Sail Video System. Watch Dylan rip up his home break and take you along for the POV ride as if you were there!

XL Kirra 8-10ft

Cyclone Seth delivered a massive swell to the East Coast of Australia in the New Year and Kirra was the playground for the Pro surfers and experienced locals. Mikey and Owen Wright were the stand outs but some of the locals went wave for wave in the 8-10ft sets.

Nazaré has been off the dial recently, the North Atlantic was well and truly awake during the start of 2022. This place is no playground and certainly takes no prisoners. This session alone resulted in two injured, who were transported to the hospital, thankfully stable and out of danger. As always we salute the teams for their commitment to surfing and the safety of each other.
