  • Our next guest is the one and only Kelly Slater.
    11 x world champion surfer and arguably the greatest athlete of all time.
    A man who has rewritten the possibilities of human achievement. A true example of dedication, determination and commitment to a healthy lifestyle and supreme professionalism.
    Kelly took time to play 18 holes with Iona at Kingsbarns where they talk, golf, surf and everything in-between!
    Thank you to Kelly, to Dan and John for the company on this blue bird day at the wonderful Kingsbarns. Here's to good health for a lifetime.

      You are inspiring Iona, as a fellow Scot it’s great to see how you’ve turned around the anguish of the end of your pro golf career into a wonderful life of travel, commentating, interaction with dudes like Kelly Slater etc…as one door closes, so another opens eh? Pretty nifty on the guitar too..impressed bonny lass!

    I surfed competitively against Kelly a few times as a kid and we are a month apart in age and he is still the man.And I draw so much inspiration from him and his accomplishments but mire than anything his outlook on health and getting better as a person.Thank you Kelly from Mark in St.Augustine,Fla

    Kelly slater is a legend! I gave up golf after been offered to go pro at 17, surfing was my passion but we were classed as bludgers back in the 80's.. 30 years later and I'm swinging the club again and loving it, not quite hitting as far as I did when I was a junior but still down the middle... making the most of the short time we have here now days hitting greens and throwing down back hand reo's the love of golf/surfing
    Cheers from NZ 🤙

  • @cameroningram5101
    @cameroningram5101 Год назад +11

    Kelly is still the goat. As someone who is the same age, to hear him talk of still being challenged and pushing himself in whatever endeavours, to be better at 60 than 50, speaks volumes of the man and his competitive spirit, and yet you felt zen in his presence. Great show Iona, keep them coming.

    I really enjoyed this, thank you. He really can play. I once saw him get to 4 under through 4 and another time seen him roll 150 feet of putts in 9 holes! He is a freak. Pretty sure he is some sort of aquatic alien and potentially 492 years old. Nice singing Iona, you got that.

    Iona, you keep outdoing yourself, brilliant content my friend. Heard of Kelly before but didn't know much about him tbh since I'm not one that followes surfing...was a pleasure to learn about him during your round. No better way to get to know someone then over a friendly game of golf. Love the golf content you've been putting out, keep up the great work...looking forward to the next one. Cheers!

    I'm a huge Kelly fan and I think this might be the best long interview I've seen with him. Kelly is such a deep thinker and I hate hearing him in an interview and the interviewer doesn't dive deep with him. (e.g. Joe Rogan Podcast episode) I hope after Kelly slows down on the tour and has more time he does more long form interviews. Thanks for this episode with Kelly and great job getting him to dive deep into conversation with you!

  • @johnbuethe3277
    @johnbuethe3277 9 месяцев назад +1

    Looks like I'm late to the party!
    Loved that Kelly expressed how he thinks about the mechanics of things in golf and surfing!
    Then you hit one out of the park when you said you wished someone told you some of the basics 10 years ago!
    In my old age I find myself saying the same thing!
    If someone had shown me some of the basics when I started I would have been great!
    There are about 4 basics (that most golfers never learn or understand) that I finally figured out way too late!
    One of the things I finally figured out after 20 years that is essential to playing good golf! After I eventually accidentally figured it out I was amazed how simple a concept it was and how I missed the evidence of the issue that should have been easy to see!
    Players need to understand the swing to be able to play good golf ⛳!
    Can't think it.. can't do it!

    Loved the intro to this episode with the guitar and the foam roller. Should have guessed you had other talents, Iona!!! I play guitar too, if I could play golf as well as I played guitar I'd be so thrilled. Perhaps I'd be about scratch 😂. You're so awesome. Just kicking off this episode but I'm sure I'll love it like all the others.
    Ps I know scratch golf and bogie golf are wildly different, my remark more comes from judging my position on the guitar playing skills. 😊
