Will Kelly Slater Continue?

According to Australia’s ‘The Sunday Telegraph’ newspaper, Quiksilver and Kelly Slater have entered into an agreement, or already have it under contract (no one is really saying anything specific), that should Slater win 10 world titles, he’ll receive an incentive bonus check of $10 million US dollars. According to the report, Quiksilver would neither confirm nor deny the bonus. Either way, Kelly Slater is and will be one of the most influential surfers in the world.
