One of snowboarding’s leading right-brain representatives, keeping creativity and connection in focus.

Get to Know Ylfa

Snowboarding has two spirits at its core: one defined by logic, and the other by raw DIY creative energy. Ylfa embodies the latter. She built her way to professional snowboarding through an unapologetic streak of self-motivated street snowboarding, leaning on her friends and utilizing all of her (seemingly boundless) creative energy along the way.

Catch Ylfa in Paved, a new film from Burton and Red Bull Media House.
