One Dreamy Day At Waikiki With 14 Year Old Kelis Kaleopaa

Kelis Kaleopaa is one of a rising crop of immensely talented young Hawaiian’s bringing true island style to the world of international women’s longboarding.

Following in the footsteps of O’Neill teammate, fellow countrywomen and longboarding world champ Honolu Blomfield, fourteen year old Kelis Kaleopaa has already made waves in 2018, getting an equal 7th at the ISA’s followed by a massive win at the Mexi Log Fest earlier this month.

As we might have mentioned, we just spent the weekend at the Vans Duct Tape Invitational and so we’re now the upmost authority on all things logging. Accordingly, we can say with some confidence that Kelis is on track to be right up there with the best loggers in the world in terms of style, grace and technical proficiency and here’s a clip of her at Waikiki last week that proves it:
