Item Description
Kelly Slater is highly regarded as the greatest competitive surfer of all time. He holds 11 World Titles and 56 career victories. He is coincidentally the youngest and oldest World Champion in men’s history, becoming the youngest World Champion at age 20 and again at age 39. Slater is also the oldest surfer still active on the World Surf League, winning his 8th Billabong Pipeline Masters title at age 49. He is one of the most well-known professional surfers in the world and has achieved incredible success, including revolutionizing the sport of surfing with Kelly Salter Wave Systems.
This is the board that Kelly rode at the 2023 WSL Outerknown Pro in Teahupo'o, Tahiti.
Item Special Note
Kindly note, that packing, shipping, and handling are not included - winning bidders are responsible for pick up and/or shipment of their board, including costs to package/ship. Boards can be picked up at The Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel or the purchaser can arrange for shipping. If shipped, we often work with a local UPS in Dana Point as the carrier. They have years of experience packaging/shipping our surfboards and do a wonderful job. Before you bid, you may inquire with our UPS Partner at (949) 248-9150 ext.0 to get a quote of how much shipping to your address will cost, as price varies due to location. If you arrange shipment with our UPS partner, we will handle the pick-up arrangement with them but will need to know your shipping address and phone number. They will be in touch directly to confirm packaging/shipment costs. The hotel does not manage this. If you prefer to use a different carrier, you will need to arrange pick up directly with the carrier from the resort and next steps.
Boards will be available for pick-up and shipping beginning Monday, January 8, 2024. Boards must be picked up no later than Wednesday, January 31, 2024.
