BIO
Australia is renowned for it’s world-class surfers—pro snowboarders, not so much. Like his countrymen Ryan Tiene doesn’t shy away from the chance to snap a board in the shore pound. On snow, his ridiculous frontside pop and movie quote narratives never stop. Young, talented, clever and optimistic—Tiene’s a traveling young gun bent on putting southern Hemi shredders on the map.
