Kelly Slater quotes

There are so many different elements to surfing. Small waves, big waves, long boards, short boards. This makes it a sport you can share with people. It's not just a solitary thing - it's become a family thing, too. It's about exercising and passing something on from father to son, and from mother to daughter. (Kelly Slater)

A lot of times I'll see guys who are nowhere near the level of the board they're riding. They might love surfing and love how it looks, but you really have to work your way up. It takes eating a little humble pie at first, and stepping back to equipment that might be a bit slow, but do it. View quote
Kelly Slater
Fatherhood isn't always a planned thing, but when it happens you just do it. It's very natural and in that sense it's not really difficult. (Kelly Slater)
