This bloke will or already is the greatest sportsman to ever grace this planet. What an absolute freak of a bloke.
Greatest surfer everAnd to think he took 3 years off in the middle of his career after nailing 5 straight titles....

Complete freak, was watching the last contest in france and guys half his age cant get near him, amazing.
Agree about probably being the best sportsman in the world today.
If you love your surfing almost every event is live on FuelTV these days, great to watch when the waves are pumping.

Don't want to knock his achievement, 11 world titles is magnificent. But greatest sportsman is a big overcall. Surfing is a fairly small sport even in it's most popular countries, to be the best you don't need to be better than as many as say a soccer player.

ASP have stuffed up their calculations, appears celebrations are a tad premature as they have now said he needs to win 1 more heat to be officially crowned champion.

yeah that is right. It ain't over for KS. Its a bit like telling Collingwood and Geelong to come back from Arizona or Monte Carlo or wherever they are and play another five minutes next week because the stop clock stuffed up in the GF.
