Discount Robin Reed all you want. But the fact that he never lost a match and beat the hell out of everybody on the Olympic team including the gold medal winning heavyweight in succession at 136lbs puts him on a different level than everybody else mentions. He worked as a steam pile driver on the docks until he decided to go to Oregon State. The images of him ripping the living hell out of everybody he was wrestling puts him at a different class.

Brian Bosworth and Tommy Nobis were studs in college. 2 best linebackers I ever seen at the college level...

Steve Largent
Steve Young
Brett Favre
Roger Clemens
Brian Urlacher
Nolan Ryan
Joe Montana
John Elway
Jay Novacek

Were all studs.

Elway could have been a 2 sport athlete easily...

And not a single one of them has 11 World Championships under their belt as does Kelly Slater.

Speaking of water sports, Michael Phelps could be the greatest white athlete. 23 gold medals.

Too short a period compared to Kelly. Kelly is 47 and minus the foot problem still at the top of his game. He has been on the ASP now WSL since he was 18. He has beaten the best of the best that came before him, during, and future greatest. He can surf Big waves and has won the Eddie. He will own you on small waves, and everything in-between he is just a machine. He has won even when they have changed the judging format. There isn't a peer of his that wouldn't tell you he is the greatest contest surfer of all times.

Comparison all multiple Winners

Mark Richards has 5
Tom Curren 3
Andy Irons 3
Mick Fanning 3
Tom Carroll 2
Damien Hardman 2
John John Florence 2
Gabriel Medina 2

Kelly won 5 in a row, two in a row two different times. He has beaten everyone listed above except Mark Richards who was before Kelly's time. Kelly has won at every major surf contest. He has dominated at several breaks like Tavarua, Pipe, Lower Trestles, and Bells.

I hesitate to call a judged exercise a sport... would have the same problem with a totally dominant Olympic ice skater...

Absolutely no way he could play another sport though. He is 6'4" with a 28" inseam... custom built to swim.

I would like to see you paddle out at Waimea Bay. Or race a guy for priority. For that matter even be able to stay in position at Haleiwa.

Have you ever taken a pounding from an overhead or double overhead wave? Ever been slammed into a coral reef? I haven't even begun to talk about the actual act of surfing yet.

Further more every sport is judged one way or another.

But those that don't know, just don't know!

I would be willing to bet you couldn't even get up on a short board on a two foot wave, Backside measurement so roughly 4 to 5 foot face.

Kelly eats clean, trains hard, and is as fit as they come.

I would like to see him throw a 200# pack on his back and jog a mile. Or run as fast as I did in college for a few miles. Both things few can do. I have absolutely no experience surfing and freely admit it.

How tough can it be? I saw a movie about penguins doing it.
