Chris Hemsworth flaunts his toned figure while surfing with wife Elsa Pataky and Kelly Slater

The Marvel star, who is 39 years old, posted a number of images from his ‘epic day’ out with his wife Elsa Pataky, his buddy Christian Slater, and a few other people on Friday.

In the photographs, he flaunted his ripped physique, and in other snaps, he and his actress wife posed for a cute selfie together.

The party went surfing, and while being dragged from the back of a boat, they used surfboards rather than water skis.

‘Epic day of surf fun and sun,’ he captioned.

Kelly Slater and his girlfriend Kalani Miller arrived in Perth on Wednesday, carrying surfboards for the Margaret River Pro.

However, the men’s heat has been postponed while officials wait for conditions to improve.

Kelly’s close pal Chris congratulated the surfer on his Pipeline victory in Hawaii last year.

Along with a snapshot of Kelly reveling in his victory, the Thor actor commented on Instagram: ‘Congrats, Kelly. Greatest of all time. What an inspiration.’

Kelly had won the WSL event earlier that day against Hawaiian Seth Moniz.

The actor and the athlete are known to be close friends and have been photographed together on numerous occasions.

They appeared in a viral photo in 2018 in which they wrestled each other shirtless.

‘It may look like Kelly Slater has the upper hand but basically I used my Jedi mind tricks and endless patience and waited till his little tiny arms grew tired,’ Chris wrote.

‘Then immediately reversed the position and gained complete control until he crumbled under my powers… maybe.’

Kelly and Chris apparently like one other’s company, since they also met at Kelly’s ‘Surf Ranch’ in California, which is widely considered as the world’s best artificial wave pool.

The Australian actor is a keen surfer who has accompanied Kelly on numerous surfing vacations to Fiji and his hometown of Byron Bay.
