Kelly Slater withdraws from MEO Rip Curl Pro Supertubos due to ongoing hip issues

Kelly Slater has withdrawn from the MEO Rip Curl Pro at Supertubos, citing issues stemming from his recent hip surgery.

“Still dealing with hip recovery and still in pain with basic mobility,” the 11-time world champion explained. “Thanks for the messages from the Portuguese fans and apologies I won’t be seeing you at Supertubos. Hoping to feel better for Bells (the first event I surfed as a full-time tour surfer in 1992). Fingers crossed @wsl scores some good waves in Portugal and good luck to everyone.”

According to Slater, Bells was the site where he really messed up his hip. It was back in April of 2022, and the surgery was not a small one. READ MORE FROM THE INERTIA
