Kelly Slater and flawless J-Bay

Kelly Slater has an insatiable lust for life! While the J-Bay Open was more than enough for the majority of the WSL elite, there was one man who spotted a blob on the charts, and extended his stay to sample the fruits of the world’s premier righthand point. If you ever wanted a symbol for hope, it’s Kelly Slater. His continuous thirst for hunting quality waves, even after all these years, is unparalleled. Long live the King!
