The 2024 Kona Factory Team is ready to tackle the world’s most demanding trails. From the roots and clay soils of North Vancouver to the iconic lines of Kamloops, the flow of California and the peaks of the world’s most spectacular mountain peaks, these riders will blast corners and turn heads wherever they go.
Headlining the Kona Factory team is North Shore’s favorite son, Caleb Holonko. Caleb has more exciting video parts planned and will continue his all-out assault on the freeride world. Californian phenomenon Eddie Reynolds returns for his second year with the factory team. His combination of effortless style, speed and an ever-growing bag of tricks is sure to blow you away. Expect to see him on even more podiums in 2024. Kamloops BC shredder Kyleigh Stewart will focus her talents on the growing women’s freeride scene at Select Crankworx events. New to the factory team for 2024 is the up-and-coming Tayte Proulx-Royds. The young Canadian rider is just as at home riding huge freeride lines in style as she is riding cross country at an elite level.
The 2024 Factory Team will be our most stylish yet. We’re gearing up for a year full of big journeys, big adventures and groundbreaking rides.
