Kelly Slater Eliminated from World Tour for First Time in His Career   Yesterday was a big day in Western Australia.

Active Skin Repair—a First-Aid Kit in a Bottle First Aid Kit

For the first time in 2022, we saw the WSL World Tour run a complete slate of events in Hawaii as part of the season opener, with both Pipe and Sunset delivering excellent conditions, exciting competition, and a fair share of drama.

He was rated second, after Felipe Toledo, with a number of pet events on the back half of the schedule. Barring some sort of cataclysmic meltdown—and a huge late-season push from someone behind him on the ratings—Florence was pretty much guaranteed a spot in the top five at the end of the year, which meant he’d surf for the title. Then the tour went back...
