Slater said he would stay at JBay and he did but when he painted a swell in Namibia he left for there.
The whole plan was set a few days ago, as DUKE learned a few days ago and now, both Kelly's girlfriend, Kailani Miller, and Strider Wasilewski are confirming it on their Instagram stories.
The waves look solid, one after the other, it looks even more solid than the last swell. Strider shows Slater putting on the suit and asks how he feels, Slater responds with a joke that can't be understood.
There are still no records of the best wave in history on what is considered the best wave in the world, but hopefully they will appear soon.
Strider's stories end with "we'll see what tomorrow brings."
The swell is expected to break for a few days.
