Slater's 8.93 No-Foot Alley Oop
Just in case anyone ever forgot that Slater is as progressive of a surfer as anyone on tour, he stuck this near-full rotation alley oop in the final to set the pace for his win over Fanning yesterday at the Bells event…with a busted foot.

Watch how he looses the board and the nose drops into the wave which pushes the board back to feet!

Please explain how he didn’t pull off the move??? I have watched the clip 2 times and I am still wondering how he “didn’t” complete the manuever????

Incredible (and clearly “made it”). Slater is still the best all around surfer on the planet.

to pull a move like that in a final is phenomenal. Freak.

If you fall off your board and don’t get up you fall. He got back up which equals a good score. Obviously you dont know competition scoring.

Watch closely and slow the tape. I don’t think he stuck it.
