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.

Mick Fanning at PERFECT Pumping Snapper Rocks Australia's Gold Coast recently came alive with a never ending run of back-to-back swells. In late April, as the WSL's Championship Tour was doing business on Australia's southern and west coasts, the more northern Gold Coast came alive, and Simon "Shagga" Saffigna (legendary longtime friend and filmer to Mick Fanning), Joel Parkinson and Dean "Dingo" Morrison, was there to capture all of the action. When the dusted had settled we needed to investigate, so we rang Mick to get the down low. After a marathon stint of waves you'd forgive a surfer for sounding a little low on energy but when Mick answered our call he was full of life and happy to have a chat. So happy, in fact, that we turned the conversation into the soundtrack for the edit above. We think you'll agree it explains the crazy visuals perfectly. From the incredible waves to the wild wipeouts and the celebrated surfers in the water to the sheer volume of humans in general, Mick was candid and engaging. Read the full interview with Mick here https://win.gs/42QbkD8 #mickfanning #australia #surfing
