    Slater is such a stud. Literally a legend.

    Kelly Slater is a well known name in the world of surfing. In fact, if you are interested in any "extreme sports," then you heard of Kelly Slater. His sponsors cover skateboarding, snowboarding, and surfing (plus other "extreme sports").

    The title of this blog gives me the impression that the author of the blog thinks surfing itself is a never heard of sport.
