Kelly Slater’s Surfboard – A Prized Posession

I guess you can compare it to a spectator coming home with a baseball that has been hit into the grandstands from a game. Your at the US Open of Surfing with 50,000+ people
and the 10-time world champions surfboard comes floating up the shore and for however reason you got it. Now what, Ebay, hang it on your wall or let it collect dust in the garage either way just having it (and with it autographed) is pretty priceless. Wait, if you sell it you can donate the money to the Kelly Slater Foundation
