Kelly Slater has conquered the Quiksilver Pro France for the first time in his professional surfing career. A 12th world title is in the making.
The Floridian wave rider claimed his 51st elite tour victory after beating wildcard Dane Reynolds, in a hard-fought final, at La Graviere. Slater wasted little time in the final, collecting a 7.93 and a 9.33 in the opening 10 minutes for impressive tube rides on his forehand.
While Reynolds would battle back with his own barrels and aerial attempts, it would not prove enough in the end allowing Slater to collect his first French victory in two decades.
