Then seeing the surf tourism industry booming he jumped ship: Just intime for the Pandemic, proving to himselfonce again, you just can't see into the future Somewhere in the last ten years while he was doing his best to sell surfboards for Euroglass to the biggest mover of fibreglass in Europe, Boardshop.

Episode 176 - Kelly knew, surely he knew? Did he know?
The last instalment of Stab In The Dark X, with Kelly Slater only means one thing, the last review of Stab In The Dark X, with Kelly Slater from us.
One of the greatest series STAB has ever created will now forever been clouded by controversy. We want to focus on the wider picture, the insight into Kelly, the shapers interviews, Episode 3, the surfing and almost everything else was on another level.
Sam Mac and STAB have smashed it! Yes people will focus on the last episode but they shouldn't.
Many people who were saying the Mayhem looked awful are now calling for it to win. What if Pyzel, Sharpeye, CI or even DHD got a chance to see their boards in the only AAA+ session of the series? It could all be different, but overall the Dan Mann looked the best board in the most surfs.
Hate it or love it, Kelly still reigns supreme. We want to just say thanks to STAB, Kelly, the shapers, filmer's and everyone except Buck... F**k you buck.
