yep he got another one. taking out the 2008 world tour, which is only up to event 9 of 11
surely he has to go for 10 now.
 
Kelly slaters winningness is getting old now, sure hes good, but IMO taj and all the rest are better, the judges just vote more for him because hes their long time friends.
 
u do have a point but you are quite miss-leaded. my uncle is an asp judge and i can assure you you are wrong about the friends part. taj is the future but kelly is still winning cause hes still surfing the way the asp has told the judges to judge. sure hes not bustin big air reverses but hes rackin the points else where.
and believe me i really dont like kelly. but you cant go past what he has achieved.
 
This is why Bruce irons left the tour, hes a newschool surfer and the judges are still judgeing oldschool style, sucks bigtime, i would rather see guy punting airs than kelly doing cutbacks, sure hes got a smooth style but airs are the new thing to do now, the ASP need to realise this.
 
he also was sick of surfing shitty waves and wanted to travel around the world and just get shacked out of his mind on bigger better waves
 
Sick he got another one! I was out of town in Snow Park. My grandparents have a house on the mountain. But dope news i love that guy.
 
cept he lost to andy irons sometimes and the judges totally fucking dicked slater over a couple years ago on a technicality thing to make him lose the whole title so im pretty sure you dont know what your talking about
 
Slater is so solid. So consistent. Andy is either hot or not so much... not as consistent yet fun to watch and insane when he is on. and yeah we all like the airs but the surfers all know what is judged and Slater has got that figured out. There are so many good surfers out there... I would hate to be a judge!
 
SLater is the Fucking MAn... Such a pimp, sick surfer.. and a NICE fukin dude.. and he gets more chicks \than anyone ive ever met.. FUKIN SICK... MIck's gonan win next year though....casue then I get to go to another world title party on the GC at the kirra pub yeh boy!
 
and slater can do sick airs, hes not as good as some of the up and comers though, the same way jp auclair cant really compete in the park these days,
