Background: Kelly was born in a small Florida town called Cocoa Beach on February 11, 1972. This is where he grew up and learned how to surf together with his two brothers - older Sean Slater and younger Stephen Slater. He still calls Cocoa Beach his home but he now has houses all over the world. He has won 11 world championship tour titles, which makes him by far most successful surfer in the history of surfing and most likely also one of the most if not THE most successful athlete in any sport.

What's up

Scoring Australian Perfection w/ Molly, Kanoa, Morgan and Italo | WSL Championship Tour The World’s Go Coast To Coast Down Under The Australian leg of the WSL Championship Tour scored a little bit of everything this in 2022. From pumping waves at Bells Beach and Winkipop in Victoria to heaving Margaret River and The Box when they ventured to Western Australia, there was no shortage of waves or wild action when the world’s best surfers hit town. Jordy Smith openings up proceedings in the West before Leo Fioravanti charges out of the gates at heaving Box, supported by an all-star cast; take a bow Kelly Slater, Molly Picklum, Nathan Florence, Jack Robinson, Kolohe Andino, John John Florence, Griffin Colapinto, Ethan Ewing, Imai Devault and Betty Lou Sakura Johnson. Back over east things get a little more classical as Carissa Moore and Italo Ferreira are unleashed on some beautiful wide-open walls, alongside rookie standout Callum Robson, Zeke Lau, Sally Fitzgibbons, Stephanie Gilmore, Gabriela Bryan, Brisa Hennessy, Luana Silva, Ryan Callinan, Conner Coffin, Morgan Cibilic, Sammy Pupo, Connor O’Leary, and none other than three-time-world-champion-turned-wildcard Mick Fanning. If you like fresh free-surf action straight out of the WSL oven you’re going to love this tasty treat filmed and edited for you by Scotty Hammonds. Enjoy!

Highlights Day 3: Picklum's Revolutionary Rail Work, Plus Seasoned Vets Make The Cut First eliminations from the men and a massive final day for the world’s best women locked in, under the pressure of losing their dream. Margaret River is a battle for survival. Raw swells slam the rugged coastline and even the world’s best surfers feel small against the untamed power of Western Australia. This year, adding to it all is the new mid-season cut, which will reduce the Championship Tour competitors by a third to the top 22 men and 10 women. Who will make the cut and continue their hunt for a World Title, and who will leave Margaret River headed for the Challenger Series? Follow the road to the Rip Curl WSL Finals. #WSL
