The WSL commentators on the desk break down what's likely to be seen as a milestone moment in pro surfing history as John John Florence clinched his first World Title. The 24-year-old Hawaiian achieved the ambitious goal he set for himself heading into this season with a Finals berth at the MEO Rip Curl Pro. After Jordy Smith, the last man standing in his path, was eliminated in the Semifinal, Florence celebrated with a beer shower, and a huge set of aerials in the Final that secured him another CT win this season.
