ASP VIDEO: Slater Makes a Comeback in Brazil
Fuel TV Blogs — [image] Kelly Slater (USA), 37, reigning nine-time ASP World Champion, has claimed the 2009 Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro over an in-form Adriano de Souza (BRA), 22, in clean three-to-four foot (1 metre) waves at the main site of Praia Vila.

Kelly Slater returns to form, wins 2009 Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro
Dailystoke — Just as I called it a few days back, Kelly Slater has indeed returned and has taken the win at the 2009 Hang Loose Santa Catarina Pro.  He stumbled a bit at the start of the event, placing second in his first round heat on a borrowed board, and fell several times, though still snuck by local wildcard Bernardo Miranda on a self-shaped asymetrical quad in round two.  After reverting to his older equipment for round three, he built a winning momentum that increased with each successive heat. Rounds three through the quarters saw Slater tear through a threesome of Aussies, starting with his third ...
