Where was John John during the swell that hit last week in Hawaii? Walking and surfing? He knows and the other thing that is known is that in this video he shares his first two sessions at home this season.

With a short board, small waves (for him) and small tubes (for him too).

The reality is that there are a couple of lefts that are pretty heavy by normal standards, perhaps not by Hawaiians.

"I love these small wave days," says John John, who is killing it.
