Yep, Kelly is amazing with his longevity and dominance in the sport.
Eleven times world champion, probably the most in any sport that is this demanding.

Jim it's cool that you were able to surf with him as a kid, these phenomenal athletes often do stand out at an early age.

My experence with that was surfing with Laird on Kauai. His place at the top of the lineup was secure by age 15. And this was in sessions packed with talent.

Pretty amazing recovery in that video.
