There’s a reason that Kelly Slater is and 11x World Champion, he can surf pretty damn well. To me I really love watching good thick power turns and long barrels, coupled with the odd freakish “how the hell did he stay on there?”
In this video Kelly Slater is testing out a 5’10” x very little on an 8ft wave, most of us mere mortals would expect that would be under-gunned for Cloudbreak, Fiji; not KS.
