Ron Pakarnyk

Feeling blessed to have grown up on Van Isle, Ronny spent his childhood bombing down black diamond runs on his skis. But he gave up his passion for the mt. Life to fully engulf his senses into the ocean. From the first time he broke away from the foam ball and surfed a glassy wave to logging tube time, deep in the Sumatran jungle. Ron’s dedication to chasing the perfect wave remains the same. Rumour has it this grom trapped in a pirates body actually bleeds saltwater and sand when feeling cornered.
