Kelly just won the Billabong Pipeline Masters for 2008.
http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/outposts/2008/12/kelly-slater-wi.html Slater did not even need to compete in this event to win the tour!
He has won this years tour before it has even finished! Kelly has won the tour 9 times! This is up on the level if not greater then MJ, Tiger Woods, Lance Armstrong! He is completely dominating in a professional sport and 37 years old! If surfing was a more main stream sport many would be making claims of Kelly quite possibly being one of the greatest athletes ever. The difference is in his sport he could possibly die if he messes up! Here's to Slater and giving us old guys hope!

I do like me some bald surfers. 
Wish my old guy would compete again.
