Like we needed more proof. He is at a level that currently no one else occupies.

vid link?
He is currently on my shit-list for participating in the olympics while injured and keeping Slater out. But he can be forgiven if it really is a 10 at Haleiwa. |

I don't think his knees will hold out for that many.

Very valid point , he ALREADY has had a long history of Surf injuries . Sometimes it seems he spends just as much time on the mend as in the water.

There can only be one GOAT and his name is Robert Kelly Slater. Just as Jordan will always be the goat of basketball. no matter how good guys like Lebron, Kobe, etc... are, Kelly will always be surfings GOAT.

Disagree on one point LB, Kareem legit bigger and better than Jordan. NCAA banned the dunk to try and stop him! (Yes look it up)
But yes Kelly!! Edited: 12/10/2021 at 04:46 AM by Greensleeves |

His 10 at Haleiwa proves it Maybe we should talk about this again in 10 years Aerials will shorten everyone's career. Mick was able to reel off 3 championships, Ke11y could do them well enough, JJF will have to out boost the Brazilians at the expense of his knees. |

Jordan had the jump shot, spin moves like Barry Sanders, an incredible defender, and that IT factor with game on the line. But, Kareem is the all time scoring leader. Maybe it's a tie. I digress.

Kareem also all defense many times, MVPs, and such, several NCAA championships. I think he gets overlooked because he did the Lee Alcindor to Kareem (like Clay to Ali) thing and he's outspoken politically. Check what happened to Kaep. Jordan fits the mold, gambler, doesn't rock the boat , non threatening politically.

I fully understand the need for goats in surfing, wave height metrics and all, but if you guys are going to apply them to basketball players (or sharks), gentlemen, you're going to need a bigger goat.
