We always knew that John John Florence was famous—but not that famous. Everywhere John John went in Rio he had a wild pack of screaming, squealing, giggling teenyboppers that made us think we were watching Justin Bieber arrive in a pimped out Escalade at the Kid’s Choice Awards.

We learned a few other things from this year’s #TourNotes in Rio, including Filipe’s signature “mouth claims”, the new World Sleep League, and the more Filipe wins, the more beautiful he becomes (according to Miguel Pupo). This is the 2015 Oi Rio Pro in a nutshell.
