Kelly Slater Bids Farewell to Pro Surfing

Watch the last of the top two scoring waves Kelly Slater rode in the Championship Tour. The 11-time world champion says goodbye to professional competitive surfing at the Margaret River Pro in Western Australia. Surfing's GOAT missed the mid-season cut and will probably only return with a jersey on as a wildcard at Pipeline, Teahupoo, or Cloudbreak. Slater, 52, spent 44 years of his life competing, 24 of those on Tour. Celebrated as the greatest surfer of all time, Kelly has 56 event wins over his incredible 32-year career on the Championship Tour. With 11 world titles, he holds the record for the most World Championships of any surfer and is both the youngest and oldest world champion in men’s history.
