I don't think Kelly gets credit for making this historic moment so significant. If it was Parko instead of Kelly in the final then this win wouldn't have been so significant. I mean, congratulate Andy for coming 1st and being a hero. Congratulate Kelly for transcending culture.

If you are a kid on the west coast of FL, you learn to surf on some of the weakest waves on the planet, and then take trips to east coast of FL for a little more power. By the time you get to real power breaks, you then are able to easily maneuver your way around the wave. It also helps when contests are held in small waves; the east coast surfers grew up on those waves :)

Who knows... perhaps by the time his career was over he could have had 5,6,7 world titles. Apart from say Tom Curren, A.I. would be the only guy since M.R. to have the drive and ability to win more than 3 titles. Surfers now win 2 or 3. Four is supremely difficult. John Florence has the long-term focus. Be interesting seeing where it goes from here...

I once at an apricot and found that it too ate as nutrients fused into its' poor sapage of a creasity. Creating an edible apricot. The president of the tree said, apricot. And, ate I did. So, I learnt things from the day they rolled the real slice of pizza and let me pocket every dripping oily part. It was good, it tasted like pocket. Not pizza, it tasted like a rolled pocket. Not pizza. It was as if the future didn't need to exist as I chewed through my pocket tasting food-roll. I ate it. And it too became good. Holy shit was everywhere as I reached the throne of thrones. Not the game one. The bowl one. The one where shit can be sometimes found a float and grailed upon as a sight of disgust, yet confidence in intrigue as to how, or even whom left the waste of the holy a float. Yes, the shitter-bowl. Where the holiest of shits be a-flushed through magical plumber-dom. The pressurized release allowed many a holy-flush. Flush of the shit. And flush I did. I did the shit of it being flushed. Holy be to the toileted-grail of Gertrude, the most stenthiest of smellys. A man.... somewhere, or something like that. A man.... somewhere.... *flush-sound*.
