Kelly Slater Takes 3 percent of Quiksilver November 12, 2010 – Tags: ,

About 5 years ago i heard the rumors of Kelly Slater’s 10 Million Dollar bonus if he won 10 world titles. Well it seems like the rumors are true! This week after Kelly Slater’s victory in Puerto Rico, which sealed his 10th championship, Kelly was given the choice of his 10 million dollar bonus or a 3 percent stake in the company Quiksilver. He ended up taking the 3 percent stake in Quikky which holds a value today of 22million dollars..
Slater dominance of the sport of surfing over the past 15 years has helped to grow the company Quiksilver by around 1000 percent, so he has definitely earned his 3 percent 🙂
