Old. Bad quality. But still entertaining.
If you haven’t seen the video before, this is Jamie O’Brien and Alex Parker (?) pretending to be novices and learning how to surf.
It takes some surfing skills to make surfing look so bad. At the end, J.O.B. does some spin-things on his foam soft top.
Who is J.O.B.? Why he is the man who enjoys posing with passed out guy/gay (I think that’s a gal).
Not a big fan of Jamie O’Brien’s personality, but I have to admit he’s an entertaining surfer and one of the best backside barrel riders. Unfortunately, in this seven-minute video, you have to endure Jamie O’Brien talking for a good chunk of it. But if you can mute it, the surfing isn’t too bad.
This is episode 11 of the Who Is J.O.B. 2.0 video series.
In no particular order and for no particular reason, here are Jamie O’Brien tweets of the day:
As the Volcom Fiji Pro kicks off…
“@NodBesson not saying i would win but, I would shit on fools, then wipe my ass with @aspworldtour !!!!”
“free surfing is the best because after surfers are done with the qs/ct surfers retire, And become a free surfer I must be one step ahead”
“Free surfing is winning”
His “rivalry” with Kelly Slater…
“@kellyslater get ready for little John he is coming in hot !!!”
On other potential rivals….
“If you hate on my grammar then fuck you and have a nice day !”
Say what you want about Jamie O’Brien’s personality, he’s an amazing Pipeline surfer. If you want to watch JOB doing his thing on Pipe, fast forward to about the halfway point in the video. If you’re interested in JOB’s personality and what he does out of the water (I’m not), then watch the whole thing.
I’m still not sure what Jamie O’Brien’s beef is with the ASP. But J.O.B. again tweeted something last night about the ASP present [sic] being a “great liar”. At this point, this may just be a “rebellious” surfer saying rebellious things to remain relevant.
Rebel or not, this J.O.B. trailer still gets my adrenaline going.
