Where would we be without him?
Today, February 11, is Kelly Slater’s 51st birthday. Last year, on his 50th, he was fresh off a Pro Pipeline win, wearing the yellow jersey and feted by World Surf League executives across multiple blue checked Instagram accounts. This year, he is equal 17th heading into Sunset and there appears to be no official love or recognition, leaving the door wide open for this community, here, to show that we are with the Florida born legend through thick and thin.
Do you have plans on how you will celebrate the milestone?
A nice cold Michelob Ultra and contraband burrito?
Some special time online getting cooked?
Gathering the family around the high definition television to watch Kelly Slater in Kolor?
Let me make that easy for you.
However you decide to honor the day, please share in the comments below so that we can do a better job on his 52nd.
Here’s to you, Kelly.

in leiu or lau of any mainland celebration of shooting down UFOs, spotting green lasers in Hawaii, news flashes and diseases originating from monkeys, Bethany’s stance, Sunset Pro VAL’s…and trying to ignore Tommy, Pammy, and the goat’s opinions…
I have set sail to a far away land:

You just can’t sum up the face of the ‘CT tour better than this. Great work Michael Chase.
Depending on which piece of surf journalism this comment shows up on:
Happy Birthday Kelly, enjoy another life-joy experience at your favorite, Sunset – or – Does the WSL drug test the event banner designers too?
just when you thought a surf event poster couldn’t get any worse, generic or soulless then the billabong pipeline pro one, here comes Hurley. awful stuff.
Happy birthday, mate.
Our lives would all be much less without you x
Maybe you should just try ignoring him completely, and do us all a favor…
You clicked on the story Sam. Thanks for providing income to continue our endeavours to make money from Surfing.
This website makes money?
Every time you click on an article it is a monetary event in BG’s favour.
Might go like some Andrew Tate shit on the socials.
Can someone remind me how to get the right comments for the right article? Cheers.
Both overwatering and underwatering can result in pepper plant leaf drop. You should water mature plants once or twice a week, no more, no less. Don’t run for the hose in the heat of the day if you see the pepper leaves wilting. Leaves naturally droop a little at this time, but they don’t need water.
Spicy!
Not a problem Eyes…..any likable, sarcastic comment will literally carry you thru any write.
Seems like there would be some flimsy surf connection for the epic Volk vs Islam fight tonight?
Ha!
700r4, now that’s one fucking funny mission joke.
You have to be a Man, to even comprehend that comment. Went over the mental midget’s head!
With that news, it’s time for a celebratory dump I guess.
Cheers, Kell !
Drop the kids off at school.
Take the Browns to the Super Bowl…
Drop the Cosby kids off at the pool
I usually go out and try to do a bunch of carving 360s every International Kelly Day, but the surf is too blown out here and I’ve yet to successfully complete that maneuver anyway.
I would do the same, but I just saw lightning touch down a mile out to sea, so I will stick to painting my face blue and attacking Bethany on Tik Tok.
An extremely classy way of demonstrating that you are an ally
