I would like you to know, I stared surfing when I was 3 years old with my dad and my sister, my mom supports us from the shore. When I was 13 years old, I have my first experience in a national competition in 2019, and I won the national contest in open female short board and sub 16 female short board. I am from Venezuela-Carabobo-Puerto Cabello, and I live in front of Waikiki, the beach where I learn to surf and now day we surf there, that is a beach break so good. my hobbies are skate, rollerblading and modeling too.

Hi, I'm Kellyani Flores, I'm only 13 years old and I'm first of all grateful to God for giving me the opportunity to be chosen by the ISA in cooperation with Olympic Solidarity for the Continental Youth Athlete Development Program for the Americas. Thank you I am also happy to be able to represent my country Venezuela in this Isa Junior World Cup in El Salvador. I want you to know that the majority of Venezuelans who surf are athletes with very low resources. However, I believe that God will always provide for us so that we can continue giving our best and be able to ride the waves in Kelly Slater's pool, for example. . run in the wsl and become an olympic athlete of surfing. I would like the ISA to help me obtain my American visa as an athlete, for me and my mother my manager and to be able to surf in Hawaii... for two there is nothing impossible so I think so thank .
