From time to time, the fabled surfing legend bowed only to the affections and motivation received from enthusiasts from different corners. Meanwhile, Kelly Slater never cared about the earthly factors of the fans, including the age or stature they held. 

Recently, the 51-year-old surfing raconteur shared an Instagram story of trying his surfing luck with a culminating individual from the US. The homebody of US politics isn’t new in the well-wisher list Kelly Slater holds. 

The usual surfing days with an unusual guest 

On January 16, Kelly Slater posted an Instagram story, showcasing his surfing day with Robert F Kennedy Jr. The caption catered to serve insights as it held, “What a pleasure to finally get a surf in with @robertfkennedyjr this morning after knowing each other for nearly 20 years.” But the fun part was revealed later as Kelly penned, “He’s more comfortable in the surf and he showed me a thing or two! “. However, the handle brought further insight into the occasion, posting the mentioned surfing video, with a mindful addition, “Happy70th”. 

That made the situation clear as Kelly Slater was on his surfing board to celebrate his old friend’s birthday event. However, for RFK Jr., the present day kept him busy with political engagements, as the US election campaign was already around the corner. However, the 70-year-old found a succulent time to meet his surfing superior friend. That was the story of the friendship the duo shared time and again.
