This collection celebrates fifteen years of Slater s exhilarating adventures, from 2008 to 2023: Slater's most iconic surf sessions including the first-ever wave ridden at his Surf Ranch, as well as behind-the-scenes shots inside Slater s home, from his famous morning pancakes to strumming guitar with his friends.

Kelly Slater is an 11-time world champion and the winningest surfer of all time. A multifaceted talent with a penchant for progression, Slater is an accomplished golfer, musician, inventor, and advocate for sustainable surfboard production and conscious clothing manufacturing. Todd Glaser is a San Diego born photographer, surfer, and waterman. He was staff photographer at Surfer magazine for over a decade, amassing over a dozen covers during his tenure. His photographs have appeared in Sports Illustrated, the New York Times, Outside, Men s Health, GQ, and the Smithsonian s National Portrait Gallery in Washington, DC. Eddie Vedder is an American musician. He is the lead vocalist and guitarist of the grunge rock band Pearl Jam.

"You didn’t think Kelly Slater was going to just ride off into the sunset after he hung up his jersey, did you? In the last week alone, he’s dropped a new surfboard model with Slater Designs and released a first-of-its-kind shirt made of seaweed via his brand Outerknown. And now it’s time to talk about the forthcoming book he’s been working on with longtime friend and collaborator Todd Glaser. The book, “Kelly Slater: A Life of Waves,” features words by Slater, photos by Glaser and a special foreword by Pearl Jam frontman and Slater friend Eddie Vedder." — SURFER MAGAZINE "The book is full of peak adrenalized moments: Slater clutching a trophy, or toying with a monster wave the way a matador toys with a bull. But I found myself most drawn to the quiet moments, in particular a shot of Slater pondering the full moon while a gauzy wave zippers at his beloved Pipeline.This book is an intimate portrait. (Slater is constantly on the go, and Glaser’s lens manages to keep up with him while also making any observer seemingly disappear.) It’s also a testament to Slater’s staying power (in 2022, at age 50, he won his eighth Pipeline Masters Championship, which he first won in 1992). And in the end, it’s always a love story, between Slater and the waves." — WASHINGTON POST "In terms of a revealing, photographic portrait of Kelly, it’s easily the best out there. " — THE INERTIA
