Keala Kennelly was born in Kauai, Hawaii surrounded by surfers. Growing up in Kauai Keala learned how to rip early on while surfing with Bruce and Andy Irons. She turned pro at the age of 17 and in time made her way on to the WCT. While on the WCT she charged in heavy waves like Cloudbreak and Teahupoo, where she also earned recognition for being the first woman ever to tow-in in 2005. After tasting success on the WCT and garnering heaps of coverage in international magazines, Keala decided to take a break from surfing to pursue acting. She was in the Hollywood hit movie about surfing "Blue Crush" and was a season regular on the HBO show "John From Cincinnati." Keala's acting and surfing experience has served her well on shows such as Ellen DeGeneres and as a correspondent for the "Weekly Update" and "Daily Habit" on Fuel TV. Recently Keala has had much success with her pursuit to become the first successful female free surfer. She starred in an episode of Fuel TV's "Firsthand," while getting barreled in Tahiti and has been charging tow-ins at Jaws, which were featured on sites like ESPN and Surfline. She was also nominated for an XXL Big Wave Award. Her recent barrel in Puerto Escondido was featured on Surfline and received 60,000 hits in one day. She also earned double page spreads in Transworld Surf and Surfer with her phenomenal Mexican barrel. If anyone is capable of changing the face of women's surfing, why not the woman who has already done it once with her Teahupoo tow-in. |
