Did you find it...... Can you post it up if you did.


Edit.

Found it... Looking for vids or pics...


The Hawaiian prodigy decided to take on one of the most dangerous surf peaks of the Portuguese World Surfing Reserve.

After winning the Round 1 heat at the Rip Curl Pro Portugal 2012, John John Florence headed to the iconic wave to enjoy a few barrels with Ruben Gonzalez and a few other locals.

Cave was pumping heavy two-meter barreling waves. "We could only get out of two out of ten waves. When we were out the back, John John asked me how could I surf in there and where he should take-off", Gonzalez told Surf Portugal magazine.

"I surfed one wave and had to leave through the rocks. It was when I saw John John getting barreled. I only saw him afterwards when we was out", tells the surfer from Guincho.

John John Florence suffered a few lacerations and bruises in the hands and body and was transported to hospital, where a few radiographs confirmed he can keep on surfing at the Rip Curl Pro Portugal 2012.

Cave is a ultra heavy, shallow, barreling wave located near the surf town of Ericeira. With a flat reef bottom, Cave requires an experienced bottom turn. Crazy Left and Coxos are the nearest surf spot alternatives nearby.

Thanks for that SP - have been flat out all day.

I love that quote - JJF has one of the best bottom turns in the business and in my view is one of the best tube riders going around. Looks like a spot I will be keeping well clear of

Did you see the footage of D. Hobgood in the tube and the sardines coming down on him and hitting him in the head - classic!! Love those super slow mo's these days - the footage is so clear.
