Kelly Slater managed to finally get one over the Airial wizz kid that is Gabriel Medina in the Final of Fiji scoring an 8.33 and a 9.83 at Cloud Break. After missing Rio (which lets be honest was a a good move after it produced average waves at best) and now with a win in Fiji, Slater goes from 8th to 2nd in the World Tour Rankings….. Surely we're all going to be looking at him wearing a K12 hat at Pipe… or earlier?
