Ever hear of the term existential crisis? Well, there’s no possible explanation about when and why, but when it hits you, everything else appears to slow down, like it’s the end of time. You could be eleven-time world champion Kelly Slater and still sometimes feel like why you are doing what you are doing.

Kelly Slater is the superman of surfing. If you might have followed him long enough, you would already know how great of an athlete he is. However, what’s even more inspiring is the fact that even at 50, the legend is simply unstoppable. There’s hardly any lack of passion and energy while he is competing against the young surfers. It’s like the sport breathes life in him, and it’s an inevitable part of his life now.

Kelly Slater reveals his worst feelings

For someone with as incredible a career as Kelly, the overall experience is expected to be a piece of cake. However, as they say, every coin has two sides Kelly’s surfing journey is also filled with amazing and gloomy days. About the weariness he sometimes feels, the legend said, “Sometimes I’m in heats and, literally, what the f**k am I doing here?”

Feeling pity for the future of surfing, Kelly further added,“I feel bad for the next generation. It’s so fucking crowded now… all the great waves are so crowded now, Pipeline, Bali, all through Indo.” Though when you give something your entire life like him, these feelings are somewhat part of the journey.
