icedrum (70)in #surf • 7 years ago (edited)

This documentary goes behind the scenes with the incredible Kelly Slater chasing his 12th surfing world title. Kelly is a truly remarkable personality and competitor, he not only was the youngest world title holder but is also now the oldest ever holder of the crown!
His mental robustness and ability to remain cool under pressure are legendary. His relaxed yet focused philosophical outlook and willingness to always keep learning and progressing continue to make him force to be reckoned with. Currently recuperating after a nasty injury at J-Bay where he broke multiple bones in his foot he is having to concentrate on his other areas of work including his expanding wave garden business and an environmentally aware clothing line called Outerknown.

"Outerknown is not only focussing on environmental issues within supply chains, but is also concerned with labour rights and the use of harmful toxins. Slater has partnered with the Fair Labour Association which sets standards aimed at protecting workers throughout his supply chain, and Bluesign, a sustainable auditing company that seeks to eliminate harmful substance in the manufacturing process."
