Most people know Kaya as the dominant Winter X Games freestyle champion, with eight gold medals and a bronze to her name, as winning the world championships for freestyle skiing. Before all that, she just so happened to be one of the best female street skaters of all time. If you require evidence, check out her section in the D Structure team video What is... and her exceptional section in the iconic Brandon Negrete video Road To Nowhere. Both sections are still strong by today's standards and prove how much she was pushing the envelope for female rollerblading. Kaya has proven herself to be one of the very best on both skates and skis, and her career in freestyle only ended due to chronic headaches which made it pretty much impossible for her to continue training. She retired from professional skiing in 2017 and has recently started working as a TV correspondant for major ski events like Winter X Games. I caught up with her back home in Montreal to find out about her skating background, how she ended up in a Brandon Negrete video, some memorable moments from that era, including hanging out with and getting to know some of the most famous skaters of all time.
