Slater dominated that heat , way underscored or Miguel was over scored that's for sure. Kelly was original and creative lines

[@reydeguerra2807]

Kelly won, but he is underscored by the damn judges that don't want him to win. Second time he is underscored in this contest.

[@Cheewy_Drippeur]

No one surf like Kelly...gosh this felt so good to see him back at this level 🔥😍🤙

[@tumtum821]

Kelly’s surfing really smooth and powerful! Great to watch.

[@clovismirandalacerdajunior714]

o insuperável Kelly Slater de front side retalhando a onda com muita força

[@seankearney5469]

I think kelly slater has the best roundhouse in the game!!!

[@Viva_la_natura]

absolutely. the best style in the game..nothing frenetic

[@skipjackish]

I agree, win or lose The GOAT is still my favourite surfer to watch on tour! He is always ripping!

[@callum4181]

imagine being a decade older than your opponent and you still destroy them...

[@leonelorozco2514]

Try two and half decades

[@iraomar1]

Only two decades. Miguel 29 and Kelly 49.

[@fiddlestickzmuzik]

Very good Kelly, they underscored you and you still won.

[@hokuinsai4299]

He was ripping the shit out of it on that FRK! 🤯🤙🏾

[@gregleighton4753]

If Kelly was a Brazilian. Total different scores.

[@hwn8088]

It's his style n flow no one really has killer Kelly s approach, n nothing else matters. . . . .

[@moskaextreme9667]

Slater é um verdadeiramente uma atleta fenomenal ! Continua com o surf muito competitivo. Infelizmente, os juízes jogaram as notas dele bem abaixo. Notei isso faz um tempo, e vi isso nas notas altas do high score. Vi o kelly com um surf bem expressivo consistente manobrando sempre no POCKET da onda, onde ali a maioria dos surfistas acabam evitando manobrar, o kelly hoje está batendo forte, onde a maioria evita trocando a pesada batida na junção, pela antecipação de manobra ( lay back).Vejo kelly à frente de "muitos outros" nesse quesito, mesmo que no quesito inovação ele fique para trás. No quesito diversidade de manobra ele faz a parte dele. Em relação a estilo é uma questão particular de cada um ali. Fico chateado as vezes com a avaliação dos Árbitros na avaliação de ondas de kelly e Jadson em diversas situações, onde visivelmente as notas ficam abaixo da expectativa.

[@Surfe99]

GOAT is back!!!

[@boxoffluffys]

Underscoring for Kelly again . Cmon wsl it’s hard enough to keep us interested . But rigging contest . We get better entertainment from beefs tv

[@francoisrossouw1656]

Miguel has an amazing backhand as doesn Ace but the GOAT is king.

[@Spin-U]

It's crazy to me how many amazing rides Kelly will have and if some other rider like Kanoa, Ciblic, all other Brazilians (outside of IF and GM) will score way higher doing the same thing. It's like it's too easy for Slater so he just gets scored less. Like when Andre kept doing his best move and the judges started to be like whatever, that's low score now. The robbery of Slater is preposterous. And he's still so humble about it all.

[@grillomanutencaoautomotiva549]

slater mostrou o que é powersurf

[@aquaticlife9251]

Damn, Kelly. If only he had a legit air attack he still would be contending for championships. Air performance is really the only thing that has changed in the last 30+ years( board technology, aside). He's still a Beast at Pipe though. Too good.

[@borednz2982]

He does,he just doesn't use it

[@CarbCrunchingVegan]

I know! I reckon he's probably surfing to avoid injury by avoiding airs most of the time

[@aquaticlife9251]

@@borednz2982 Legit air game( Italo, Gabriel). Not occasional air game. There is a difference. A game that could swing a heat with one wave. He doesn't have it like them. Yes he can do airs. But that is something he can't count on like other pros. You know exactly what I'm talking about.

[@borednz2982]

@@aquaticlife9251 no I don't? Ever watch his videos?..see him do a 540?he just doesn't do much in competition

[@aquaticlife9251]

@@borednz2982 guess what? He's in competition.😆 That's what we're talking about in this comment stream. We are not talking about free surfing here. Competition. Where it counts. Where you have to perform airs to win against others that can do the same. The ability to pull them off under pressure when you need it the most. Wow. This guy really doesn't get it?🤔 My bad. I assumed you were smart enough to figure that out.

[@misbakhulmunif9318]

His movement is so natural..

[@michaelharris4651]

Life’s to short , keep on charging Kelly 👍

[@naddanbb]

kelly's always ahead of the game. it'll take a decade or so before judges score smooth, tasteful power with the odd beautiful carving 360 (if anyone else can do that). if the judges actually took heed to their criteria (speed/power/flow/innovation) kelly would have even more world titles no doubt.

[@concretely]

KS on point!!

[@mickshepherd9329]

Can barely watch WSL anymore;the scoring is so against Slater;he only just won that.Are you faaaarking serious???Just like when Tiger was out of golf it wasn't worth watching same things gunna happen when Slaters gone.

[@ricksoden6838]

no corporate sponsers, no points

[@siroxwell4948]

where are the rest of the heats????🤷‍♂️

[@jv-nr1xd]

better surfing, showing more diversity in maneuvers and better wave choice. That was a no brainer for Kelly

[@bellend4412]

Kelly has still got it.

[@isuckatsurfing]

It's insane that after all these years Slater is STILL underscored. NO ONE has as much variety, power, and flow on rail than Slater. Not even close. Unfortunately, the tour has become just hair away from an Air Show Tour, so they appear to be nudging him out. Stupid. Their viewership will go down, especially in the U.S., when he retires.

[@caseyeckstadt9836]

Slates.florida.

[@davidhutchison3952]

Cocoa Loco.

[@francoisrossouw1656]

Why do Goofy foots always look so much better on their backhands?…asking as a natural footer.

[@wolf-yw9wk]

i concur.. also as a regular footer lol

[@naddanbb]

yes ! .. and they always look a bit unnatural on their for forehand , like they are slightly leaning away

[@enekomombassa4639]

I’ve always thought rights and lefts are different. Maybe it’s the Earth’s rotation or something like that

[@sumatran]

God, Slater underscored again and again and again. Does the WSL NOT want him on tour or something? No one surfs like him. Plenty of guys can launch or do newer school shit, but can they draw the lines that Kelly does with such speed, power, and flow? The judging is getting ugly these days.

[@puppylinuxer]

We are all prone to mistake but these WSL judges are being as impartial as a roman emperor....everyone can see what you're doing m8s, you're ruining the sport

[@Kidgloves1984]

Kelly was ripping..Miguel surfed good, but not good enough..

[@alexjunior950]

o cabeça de ovo deixa eu de fazer outra pergunta a cor da água de atrapalha na hora de pegar onda ou a cor nao em fluência em nada pra vc 🌴🌴🏝🏖🏕🌏🏞⛰🛖🏝🎄🗺 🏄‍♂️ 🏄‍♀️
