DailyStoke.com recently caught up with Kelly Slater to talk about surfing, but also about the ASP World Tour. The first part of our interview with Kelly Slater is here.

With a significant number of this year’s top WQS surfers being former ASP World Tour surfers, it begs the question as to why [...]
When looking at the faces on tour today and the top guy, Kelly Slater in particular, it got me thinking, how many of the guys that are on the World Tour today were on the World Tour back in 1998? Of course a few guys have dropped off and requalified during that period. Kelly even retired [...]
Heading into Pipe Masters, let’s take a look at the top 10, by the numbers, to see who might move up and who’s likely to finish up as runner-up to the already crowned 9 time World Champ, Kelly Slater. The point total is based on the best 8 of 11 results from this year’s World [...]

Bede destroyed young Fronchie star, Jeremy Flores in the finals, who put up a valient fight in the windy, sideshore, head high to overhead conditions. Event favorite, [...]
Saturday’s day of competition at the 2008 Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro in Brazil saw some big names go down to wildcards and back of packers, and saw other front-runners advance to Round 4.
Saturday ran through all of Round 3, with Taj Burrow (AUS) shining in what was the highest point total heat of the [...]
We all know how Mundaka wound up, with Kelly Slater finally closing the deal on his 9th World Title win, and CJ Hobgood taking home his first contest win in ages. Now that number 1 has been decided, the big question going into Brazil is, who will be number 2? Let’s examine the top 10 [...]
Well, the contest is finished, but Slater hasn’t been crowned K-9 yet. In a close final, Kelly was topped by Aussie, Adrian Ace Buchan in what was his first ever World Tour victory.
