BRECKENRIDGE, Colo. -- After four days of fierce competition, the 2011 Winter Dew Tour/Nike Open here wrapped up Sunday afternoon with the highly anticipated Freeski Slopestyle Finals. Beginning with Wednesday's qualifiers and continuing through Friday's semifinal, 80-plus podium seeking competitors were mercilessly reduced to a mere dozen by the start of Sunday's final proceedings.

First John John gets Slater-ed by Slater, then Slater gets Slater-ed by Parko in the semis, then Parko runs out of magic in the final, submitting victory to last year's runner-up Kieren Perrow. Last second comebacks. Heartbreaking close calls. Michel Bourez came within one heat of stealing the Triple Crown from John John.

It's not as far-fetched as it might seem. Slater, who will turn 40 in February, is a two-handicap golfer who won a remarkable 11 world surfing titles with a blend of sheer talent, physical and mental toughness, and fierce determination. He has been recognized by many as one of this era's top athletes. 31364 http://www.grindtv.com/blog/31344/slater+florence+and+moore+earn+top+honors+at+2011+surfer+poll/ Wed, 07 Dec 2011 08:30:00 PST
Kelly Slater took home his 17th SURFER Poll No. 1 in a year he won an unprecedented 11th world title. "The first one I won was in 1992," says Kelly Slater.

We take a stab at dissecting the "Best Documentary" category. By definition a documentary film is a broad category of moving pictures intended to document some aspect of Reality. In this case the reality being Surfing.

If you were to compare Tuesday's action to the first week or so of this year's waiting period, it was absolutely firing. If you were to compare today to your average 6 star WQS event, the waves were fantastic. But compared to the waves seen at Haleiwa events from the past, it was incredibly underwhelming.
