Kelly scores a perfect "10" on this monster barrel.<br />

Kelly Slater, could you please share with us whatever top secret elixir of ocean immortality you're drinking?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; vertical-align: baseline;">
Once again the 11-time world champion stole the show during the <a href="http://www.volcompipepro.com/live/" sl-processed="1" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #525252; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_hplink">Volcom Pipe Pro</a>surf contest, successfully managing a late and dangerously steep air drop into a wave that most others, as demonstrated in the video above, simply can't handle.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; vertical-align: baseline;">
What makes this drop-in (at :14) even more insanely epic? Slater achieved the difficult landing without grabbing his board for support -- a common technique for surfers. Instead, the surfing legend uses ballerina-like grace, spreading his arms for balance and exiting the tube like it was no big deal.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; vertical-align: baseline;">
While the incredible drop-in landed him the first perfect ten score in the contest and stunned the crowd, this feat is definitely not a first for Slater. The world champ has claimed a myriad of <a href="http://vanstriplecrownofsurfing.com/billabongpipemasters2013/video-view/10-point-ride-kelly-slater" sl-processed="1" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #525252; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_hplink">perfect tens</a> -- <a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/06/12/kelly-slater-gets-a-perfect-surfing-score.html" sl-processed="1" style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #525252; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_hplink">even perfect 20s</a> -- throughout his decades-long career.</div>

In fact, when an announcer asked the 41 year old contest winner what he thought of his perfect performance, the legendary wave rider all but brushed it off.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #333333; direction: ltr; font-family: Georgia, Century, Times, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin-bottom: 15px; padding: 0px; text-rendering: optimizelegibility; vertical-align: baseline;">
"It was all right. You've got to lower your standards. [The wave was] not as good as it was this morning."</div>

If that was what lowering your standards looks like, everyone else can just give up now.</div>
