Skylar Lickle, Maui Surfer, From the Lineup to the Studio
Skylar Lickle has made a name for herself in the surf community, chasing the biggest, gnarliest waves Maui has to offer. This year she won the Red Magnitude, a video-based competition which scored 21 female surfers on their top three rides (many occurring just a couple miles away from the Maui Girl Store in Paia at Jaws in Haiku). This July, she had the opportunity to surf Maui’s historic-once-in-20-year swell that sent Freight Trains rolling through the Maalaea Harbor. “It was great. Perfection at its finest,” Sky described. -
