It's Sunday evening. I'm sitting here with the kittens in my lap, watching Kelly Slater surfing in the third round of the Quiksilver Pro at Snapper Rocks in the Land Down Under.
He's already gotten two nice tube rides, and switched out his board for a fresh one. The 10x World Champ looks crisp and loose. I know it's early but he looks like he could be on his way to an 11th World Surfing Title.

Update 10:30 PM Sunday March 6, 2011.
True, Slater's heat score, 14.93 out of 20, is not the best. But Slater knows better than anyone, there's nothing worse than peaking early, and it's only the third round. As long as his momentum keeps building, and he continues to have "fun," he could take the 2011 Quik Pro.
