Growing up in the snowy mountain of Colorado and ripping the powder to shreds was how it all began for Lena. She traded her snowboard in for a kiteboard 6 years ago and has never looked back. Now she can be found all over the North Shore catching monster waves at Lanes, getting new people into kiteboarding, and sharing her stoke for the ocean. She loves to travel and prefers warm turquoise blue water and strong wind when she kites which is why she chooses Maui to be home. Sponsored by: Ozone Kites
