- Summary:
- From Beach Blanket Bingo to Baywatch to Blue Crush, surfing has fascinated people for years, and Kelly Slater is the sport's hottest star. He's one of the world's most popular surfers and his radical moves have revolutionized the sport. Born in Cocoa Beach, Florida, in 1972, he used surfing to escape a difficult home life. After his surfing career took off, he made the transition into acting and modeling, and spent a season starring on the popular television show Baywatch, where he won the hearts of women young and old -- including Pamela Anderson, whom he dated briefly.
- For more than 25 years, Slater has ridden the waves of the surfing world and experienced all of its ups and downs. In Pipe Dreams, he shares the stories that have influenced his life and have inspired him to overcome both personal and professional hurdles -- and achieve his dreams.
