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 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.
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 🤙
WOW...This golf course is insanely, naturally, breathtaking beautiful! Good conversation with Kelly too. Rooting for Kelly to win the Pipe Master 2023. 🏆🌊⛳
Fantastic setting for a round with Kelly...never thought of surfing and golf in the same sentence. I can see after this why Kelly is such a great technician of the game. Pure balance.
I’ve been fortunate to watch Kelly surf in my hometown Newcastle Australia with my other hero Mark Richards. How fantastic to play golf with Kelly! Loved this immensely
Excellent video. Brilliant insights into two great sports. Kelly is the goat in his field. You and him had a great rapport out there. Now it's a natural progression for the return match I say. Over there in the great water courses of Hawaii. Look forward to that.
Wonderful piece Iona..Kelly comes across as a beautiful human..had the great pleasure to listen to him talk to the young sufers at Mangawhai surf club in NZ 2019. ❤
I was so surprised that she can sing good, love her voice. I grew up with Kelly Slater, and now he plays Golf love it brings me some memories back. Iona your content is GOLD! Hope we can see more like professionals from other sports who play Golf now :)
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!
Was totally engrossed, great 😊 video he’s been a hero of mine since I was 18,, I used to get ripped by my surf 🏄♀️ buddies when I was younger cause I played golf as well , then when Kelly took up golf ⛳️ it became cool to my mates just because Kelly was our icon and still is 🙌
An absolute hero who happens to be the greatest of all time in his chosen sport. Life lessons all the way through this video. Absolutely class Iona. Keep up the great work, your style is so relaxed when interviewing these people. Can't be easy
Awesome. Kelly Slater is an absolute legend. The way you (Iona) conduct these interviews is so natural. Loving every episode. Can't wait for the next installment.
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. 😊
Turning into a Big fan of you Iona! Love your swing and thank you for this video.. Always have been a huge fan of Kelly being I am born and raised as a Florida surfer and golfer.. Really enjoyed the relationship he gave about the 2 sports.. He is Epic and so are you! Thanks again :-)
Great episode !! Iona !! Kelly was in Nz a couple of years ago ! Played golf ! Then turned up at the local surf club the following day ! The kids were blown away !! Legend ! Love the Vlogs
Exceptional dude, cool as they come and wow, he’s a golfer too….also an ambassador for Breitling watches…ah well, better than some I guess. Iona….whaddalife, eh?
What a wonderful video. Beautiful scenery / course and great to hear his thoughts on how his golf and surfing help each other 👌 really glad I found your channel, Iona 👍
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!
One of the most interesting and enjoyable RUclips videos anywhere. An amazing man and Iona you brought out the real person. Amazing. Might have ironed your jumper😉
Just brilliant content.Your interview style is just pure class,head and shoulders the best out there.Just letting Kelly talk and listening to him was inspirational and the golf setting was amazing.More of the same please Iona.
Just found your channel after seeing you play with Rick Shiels. I just finished watching both this and the Martin Slumber episodes and absolutely love the one to one interview style where it feels like a storytelling. Hopefully more of these in the pipeline!
Ive had this in my queue to watch for 2 months and finally got round to watching it. What a brilliant 34 minutes, the interview was fascinating to listen too and the golf interspersed was great (Kingsbarns always looks incredible). Thanks for the content Iona, can't wait to see what is next.
pure class in all his walks of life. what a wonderful human being. even recognizing his misfortuned moments. that´s when you realise that he´s just human too. how good I always feel when someone gets to make Kelly open up like this. such a warm and depth hearted gentleman. one can sense how deep into therapy he went through. i mean, he´s so sharp and eager to understand himself and the world surrounding. make no mistake, he´s a wild and ferocious athlete too! how lucky are we to get the chance to walk the earth at the same time he´s doing it. thank you.
What an absolute treat, incredible work Iona. Found my way over here from Ricks channel, I loved Kelly as a younger surf enthusiast, had no idea he was a golf.
Fantastic Iona! What a pair of genuine lovely people. I’ll bet you he can’t sing though! You’ve got him there. But then again, how is your martial arts?
This is amazing! 2 of my most loved sports and so well put together. You always come with great questions Iona and I can see why you felt so zen playing with Kelly! What an awesome opportunity. Keep doing what you do!
Fantastic interview Iona. You can tell you have a genuine interest in your guests. Your honest approach is really refreshing. Production values are also top notch!
Thanks for tuning in everyone!

Great interview! But....who won the game??
I really enjoyed that as a longtime Kelly Slater fan. Thankyou 😊
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’s attitude and passion for sport is infectious, what a great human being , thank you Iona ❤️
Production quality on this is phenomenal.
Amazing video Iona and team.
Kelly seems like a top guy with a lovely swing.
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’ve played it and it’s awesome - if you have a spare £370 the it’s worth it
Loved this Iona. The work you put into these videos really shows. Also - 'can't really sing?' come on!! 😂
Fantastic setting for a round with Kelly...never thought of surfing and golf in the same sentence. I can see after this why Kelly is such a great technician of the game. Pure balance.
he is a legend! I have felt inspired to be better since being in his company.
Wow did not expect this pairing 🙌🏼..two of my favorite things in this world 🏄♂️ 🏌️♂️Iona+Kelly = Gold content!!!
Thanks for tuning in! Gonna be tough to top this guest!
I’ve been fortunate to watch Kelly surf in my hometown Newcastle Australia with my other hero Mark Richards. How fantastic to play golf with Kelly! Loved this immensely
Great video. Perfect trifecta of golf, a chilled playing partner, a beautiful golf course and Iona..
Total Zen. Could listen to him talk all day. I forgot I was watching golf and rode the wave you were both on instead 🙏
Amazing Iona! Blown away by this video.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

This was really well done. I've seen a lot of Kelly interviews and Iona's was one of the best. Thank you!

What a treat Iona. Thanks for creating and sharing these gems.
Best one yet Production values looking great
Brilliant Iona, loved that, thank you! 🏄🏌️♀️😃
a pleasure Ben!
Loved this one Iona. Kingsbarns looks utterly stunning too.
Such a great watch. Great man to interview and IS makes it like a casual chat between two friends (touch of class)
Incredible episode! Should have 50x more views than it has. Kelly is an incredible human being
This is a gorgeous video. The cinematography was stunning and matched the eloquence of his outlook on life and the game.
Iona, you keep outdoing yourself, brilliant content my friend.

Is the Bill Murray episode next?? Thanks for an amazing episode, Iona!
What a beautiful video! Very well done. Kelly is a remarkable human being as well as Iona!
Dude Kelly Slater is a scratch golfer? Is this dude good at everything? Wish I could hate on him but he’s such a cool dude. He’s an inspiration. ❤
Love your guitar playing & voice Iona! Fantastic interview with Kelly learning how he achieves his mental and physical longevity
Absolutely loved that…great insight into a Champions mindset and what an awesome human being Kelly is. Great work yet again Iona.❤👏
Great video, thanks Iona.
Iona and Kelly! What a treat for a golfer/surfer to watch
Thanks for tuning in!!
@@ontheroadwithiona do you know the brand of grips Kelly had in your video? They look interesting.
Thank you Iona 🙏🙏, and thank you to Kelly for making himself available 🙏🙏. ... This was really worth the wait.
Man do I wish I was filming this show! Love it!
Production is just outstanding. Top drawer content from Iona and team.
Great video, so well shot!

Great episode !! Iona !!
Kelly was in Nz a couple of years ago !
Played golf !
Then turned up at the local surf club the following day !
The kids were blown away !!
Legend !
Love the Vlogs
I just loved this one, my two worlds collide!(Three if you include guitar) Thank you….such a great interview.
Exceptional dude, cool as they come and wow, he’s a golfer too….also an ambassador for Breitling watches…ah well, better than some I guess. Iona….whaddalife, eh?
Exceptional interview - keep em coming :)
Great video!! How long’s that jumper been in the boot/the bottom of the bag for 😋
Great interview with the GOAT Iona and amazing cinematography - congrats to all your team.
I started foam rolling and eating spinach immediately after watching this , thanks for posting
What a wonderful video. Beautiful scenery / course and great to hear his thoughts on how his golf and surfing help each other 👌 really glad I found your channel, Iona 👍

Bloody brilliant. Kelly is the GOAT in every respect. Great job Iona. Thank god Kelly is bald, otherwise I’d be nothing like him.
One of the most interesting and enjoyable RUclips videos anywhere. An amazing man and Iona you brought out the real person. Amazing. Might have ironed your jumper😉
Just brilliant content.Your interview style is just pure class,head and shoulders the best out there.Just letting Kelly talk and listening to him was inspirational and the golf setting was amazing.More of the same please Iona.
Thank you so much Allan!
Never even heard of Kelly until now. What a top guy😎
Amazing episode, I could watch hours of this.
Kelly is a very wise person. Thanks Iona !
Just added this to the watch later list. Look forward to checking this out. Nice work
Just found your channel after seeing you play with Rick Shiels. I just finished watching both this and the Martin Slumber episodes and absolutely love the one to one interview style where it feels like a storytelling. Hopefully more of these in the pipeline!
Keep doing what you’re doing, Iona!! Love your storytelling!!
Oh man. This is exactly what we needed. 🐐
What an incredibly humble and nice chap.
The Goat 🐐 such an amazing and inspiring human
Stunning video, your ability to let people express themselves is an inspiration.
Loved watching this! Your content is AMAZING!

Brilliant content 👏
Yeeeewwww! Love you Kelly!
Absolutely superb episode..
And what an insight into a World class athletes mindset.
What an incredible person and fantastically done by you … brilliant interview .. really enjoyed it
I’d never heard of Kelly before, but he’s one of the most inspirational people I’ve ever listened to. This video is brilliant in every way.
I doubt Roger lives under a rock, maybe he just doesn't surf.
Roger watch World surf league = free contest viewing. also they have a you tube channel and have live coverage of contest.
pure class in all his walks of life. what a wonderful human being. even recognizing his misfortuned moments. that´s when you realise that he´s just human too. how good I always feel when someone gets to make Kelly open up like this. such a warm and depth hearted gentleman. one can sense how deep into therapy he went through. i mean, he´s so sharp and eager to understand himself and the world surrounding. make no mistake, he´s a wild and ferocious athlete too! how lucky are we to get the chance to walk the earth at the same time he´s doing it. thank you.
What an absolute treat, incredible work Iona. Found my way over here from Ricks channel, I loved Kelly as a younger surf enthusiast, had no idea he was a golf.
Hold On...wait wait wait just a second. She's a golfer, adorable, a spokesperson AND a musician?! 🥰😍🤩😘
OMG 💯 A great golfer and what a great singer 💥👏
Great video, really relaxed vibe and what a great guest, I mentioned him to a surfer mate and had no idea Kelly was such a legend
Fantastic Iona! What a pair of genuine lovely people. I’ll bet you he can’t sing though! You’ve got him there. But then again, how is your martial arts?
This is amazing! 2 of my most loved sports and so well put together. You always come with great questions Iona and I can see why you felt so zen playing with Kelly! What an awesome opportunity. Keep doing what you do!
UoUUU great intervew!! love it. Kelly was my hero since I started to surf! Congrats and keep your good work in this channel
Sees Iona on Rick's channel, first video I see is a round with the GOAT, I love RUclips!
Fantastic content Iona, simply outstanding 🤙🤙🙌🙌
Thank you Chris!
Fantastic interview Iona. You can tell you have a genuine interest in your guests. Your honest approach is really refreshing. Production values are also top notch!
