Florence, Slater, Fanning & More | Snapper Rocks QuikPro 2014 Free Surfing | DUSTY DRIVES Ep #01

Dusty Drives is a surf video series digging into old hard drives to uncover sessions, trips and forgotten footage from past years with a narrative twist.

First episode of Dusty Drives kicks off at Snapper Rocks during the Quiksilver Pro 2014 warm-up legends, locals, and a few forgotten moments from the golden bank.

Go back in time and witness Snapper Rocks during the 2014 Quiksilver Pro in a free surfing warm-up session on the Gold Coast, where the world’s best surfers lit up the Superbank in flawless conditions. From Mick Fanning’s rail game to Kelly Slater’s precision, this free surf was stacked with talent and tension as the CT season was just about to launch.

We captured smooth lines, heavy sections, as Snapper served up clean 3–4 ft walls.

Watch:

Mick Fanning test out new board designs right at home

Kelly Slater, already a legend, still redefining speed and flow

John John Florence, quietly rewriting the future with every turn

Adriano de Souza, laser-focused and explosive

Kolohe Andino mixing flair with growing confidence

Tiago Pires, charging into what would become his final CT years

Owen Wright, blending power and finesse

Nat Young, backhand tight and fast

Leonardo Fioravanti, starting to shape his path

Aritz Aranburu, solid and stylish as ever

Jeremy Flores, all-in as always in the pocket

Jay ‘Bottle’ Thompson, hard-working and heavy on rail

Freddy P and Lakey Peterson, showing style and form in the lineup

Coco Ho and Courtney Conlogue, sharp, stylish, and focused

Sally Fitzgibbons, a title threat and Olympic-bound

This is more than a surf edit, it’s a time capsule from a stacked field, just before the horn blew to start the season.
