Here & There is the latest cinematic journey from the Florence brothers, crafted in collaboration with their film collective, Parallel Sea. The first chapter, titled Here, follows John, Nathan, and Ivan Florence over the 2023–24 North Shore winter, capturing their intimate bond with surf, land, and lineage.
Born and raised on Oahu’s famed North Shore, the Florence brothers (John John, Nathan, and Ivan) are no strangers to surf culture’s highs and lows. John John, the eldest, is widely celebrated for his three world titles and mastery of tube riding and heavy waves. Nathan, the middle brother, is known for his fearless approach to big-wave surfing, pushing boundaries in swell and style. In 2024, he formally joined the family’s Florence brand, aligning his journey with his brothers. Ivan, the youngest, has emerged from the shadows of his older brothers with his own creative flair — both in the water and off it. He brings a spontaneous, artistic energy to the trio
Here & There is conceived as a two-part . This first installment, Here, is a love letter to “place” — the reef breaks, shoreline vistas, and the restless ocean they call home. It juxtaposes surging swells with grounded imagery: family, failed rides, laughter, and introspection. High-level surfing in its purest form.
