SPOILER ALERT
If you (somehow) do not know the results from Stab In The Dark X with Kelly Slater, and want to find out by watching yourself – tune out from this article.
I am going to save my opinion for it’s own write up to come later this week. Instead, for now, I’ve compiled a list of comments from readers, viewers, and subscribers on Stab’s website, Instagram and Reddit.
Enjoy.
“Everyone knows that Kelly is an idiot when it comes to anything not surfing related, but now everyone knows that either a) he’s also an idiot when it comes to surfboard knowledge; or b) he’s a liar; or c) he’s suffering from CTE or some other brain ailment.”
“Kelly Slater managed to destroy the little bit of sympathy and respect I thought I had for him. FireWire will never get a cent from me,”
“It speaks volumes that the shapers getting drunk together was the highlight of the show,”
“He’s a huge liar and it’s very clear.”
“Kelly is insufferable and he’s clearly dishonest. Does anyone believe he has never watched a SITD before? Such a cornball.”
“So Kelly knows Pyzels, which he doesn’t ride, due to its obvious rails but then can’t pick out the shaper of his own boards that he’s ridden exclusively for the last 10 years? Anyone else buying that bullshit? Lol”
“This was Jimmy Slades best acting since bay watch…..”
“Submitting a board (FRK) that has been in the Slater Designs lineup for 7 years and claiming to not know what it was is absolutely wild”
“3.5 hours of my life I can’t get back. One big FireWire advertisement.”
“Stab in the light”
“How come Dan pulled out a brand new board that was apparently his winner? Genuine question.”
“How do I cancel my membership ?”
“Kelly won, we lost. Stab really lost. I feel bad for Stab.”
“Rigged” (X4)
“Did Elo make the call to run the final in those waves?”
“@isasurfing needs to make an official statement on this one.”
“I think Kelly has a bright future in politics(laughing emoji)”
“He never answered the question directly, despite being asked directly. Both here and in Stab In The Dark. Which is an answer, in and of itself.”
“He looks away when he starts saying he didn’t know about the Dan Mann , classic tell…”
“We’re not mad at you Dan Mann, we’re mad at Kelly.”
“Felt like watching the Game Of Thrones finale,”
“I guess all that Ayahuasca did nothing to help Slater be more honest, less egotistical, or more likable.”
What say you?
Cheers,
