Could Kelly Slater be the best athlete ever?
The dude is a freak... no one has ever dominated a professional sport for almost 20 years...

Kelly changed the way people surf today, true hero of the sport!
Stephanie Gilmore is going to be the Slater in the female surfing world IMO |

How does Kelly Slater being the best in his sport make him the best athlete ever? Or even a top athlete? I can name you 100 people in any sport that are more "athletic" than him, unless of course your claim is that because he's able to ride waves, he's a freak athlete, which is just stupid.

Let me say it again all you webmasters. Slater is the man. Deal with it. Drop in 20 ft pipe and then talk. Adam from Wild Cash knows what he is talking about. These guys have no idea do they Adam? See you all out in the water.

Slater is the man.. but no way the Best Athlete ever....
Jim Thorpe has it locked up! Thorpe was a half Pottawatomie Indian, half white athlete who excelled in multiple sports, including track and field, football, and baseball. In the 1912 Olympic Games Thorpe won the gold medal in the pentathlon and the decathlon. He later played pro baseball and football and he became the president of the American Professional Football Association, which evolved into the NFL. The guy couldn't even start his pro football career until the age of 27 - cause there was no such thing. He continued to play well into his 40's! It's also been said he could kick a football the length of the field. He kicked a 95-yard punt in the 1919 championship game the won it for his team. ![]()

Don't know who he is but I don't really see how any surfer no matter how amazing could even be in the discussion of the top athlete of all time.

Well all the pro surfers I met in AUS run 20km/week weight train 2-3hrs/day as well as train in some sort of martial arts to keep their joints bendy and loose.
They have to be able to paddle out in big surf up to 1/2 mile off shore in some places, no tow-ins during competitions and have the pipes to stay down if crushed by a wave. Its all relative isn't it ... last year I sank 12 NBA reg 3 pointers in 1 1/2 minutes, granted no pressure or people but not bad for a short white guy. 4 years ago I stepped in and hit a 96.5 mph pitch in the batting cage ... didn't hit it well and broke my finger but did it. In '97 I got a par on the 9th hole a pebble beach ... fucking par! Why does this matter you all say with bated breath???? It took me 3 hrs to stand up for more then 5 secs on a surf board and almost a week before I could turn properly and I still was falling off every ride and this was on 2-3 footers. I was out of breath and energy in most cases after an hour. Kelly S may not be the best athlete ever ... but he sure is at the top of the list! This dudes pulled more hot beach bodied pussy in 5 yrs then Heff did in his life ..

If Slats can win number 10 this year it would be an amazing accomplishment. No one has ever won ten world championships over the span of 20 years (take away 3 years right in the middle when he retired after winning 5 in a row) in any sport. Its a great article, brings up some really interesting points.
I was always a Curren fan growing up. Saw him surf in some gnarly waves in NorCal. Then I watched Slater in Hawaii for a few winters (with all the rest of the pros as well) and Slater is a once in a generation kind of athlete. |

Lairds wave at Teahupoo still gives me chills. I remember the Surfer cover shot...unbelievable.
By the way, I just read an interview with the author of this book, sounds realy interesting. She spent a bunch of time at Jaws with Laird and the crew. You might like it. ![]() http://www.mensjournal.com/a-1740-fo...-other-marvels |

I have played tennis, basketball, football, soccer, ran track, (tried) to ice skate, surfed, skateboarded (what can I say, I like sports!) and although I may not be a professional in any of them, I can tell you that for a 9 (soon to be 10, I hope) time world champion who has made records that may never be broken again, Kelly Slater is by far the sporting worlds most underrated champion. And you gave me 4 you feel are more athletic than him, I'm waiting for the other 96 ![]() |

I'm pretty sure you just equated the ability to be a good swimmer with athleticism. ROFL

![]() athleticism 1. an active interest in sports. 2. an obsessive participation in physical activity. — athletic, adj. Have you ever tried to paddle out in 10-15 foot waves? Most of those surfers are some of the best swimmers in the world. |

Having lived in Cocoa beach I've had the pleasure of watching Kelly go from a wide eyed kid that used to follow us around to arguably the greatest surfer ever. I'll get to see him again when he comes home for the annual Slater Brothers surf contest to benefit the World Skin Cancer Foundation next month.
Surfing at the level Kelly does takes extreme athleticism and it's hard to find another sport that requires more. I'm positive there is no non surfer that could go out and do what Kelly does while Kelly can do many other sports with different disciplines very well. Until there is a set judging criteria for " greatest Athlete " it can be argued all day long but with all things considered Kelly has to be recognized as one of the best. There's no comparison. If you saw a collage of Kelly's past girlfriends you would freak |

actually, other than Ronaldo, I would say Slater is well situated in that group. Let Ronaldo play some more years before we start lumping him with some of the greatest athletes to have played in their respective fields.
