Kelly Slater, from Florida, and 5 times crowned World Surfing Champion by the Association of Professional Surfers, demonstrates the move of the nineties: The section floater.
Although we're just a bunch of kOOks, we still know who can surf. Hey, believe it or not there's even a few of us on this list. We took a poll as to who we thought were the hottest surfers originally from, or transplanted to, the East Coast of the USA. Guess what? The most successful professional world champion surfers of all time Kelly Slater (5X), Lisa Andersen (4X) and Freida Zamba (3X) are all from Florida. California? Keep Dreaming...even Tom Curren moved away. Sorry if we missed you, keep practicing...
