Heard a few interesting points on a podcast.
- Slater's surfing was better on traditional boards and his transition to Slaten Designs has seen his surfing decline. The Simon Anderson incident at Bell's a short while ago was referenced. Thoughts?
- Slater seems to be on only one deviating from a standard HPSB in a contest. I would contend it's because he's the only surfer on tour who will get scored with them simply because he's Slaten. Thoughts?
