OH SHIT. IT’S ON!!
for being the main, most prominent icon affiliated with the term “surfing” Kelly has been always much more articulate and insightful than any of his peers or stereotypical surfers around.
I mean, he somehow became the most popular surfer ever without any hair for most of his career 😅
Jus trying to illustrate his weight and gravity in the surf world and what’s crazy is he has been really elusive from the world of edits/clips/podcast that all other pros broadcast through.
I clicked so fast since there’s not a lot of core-surfer, long-interview/podcast format questioning with Kelly.
Thank you for having him on! 🙏
