Violet Kepo'o is a teenager from Utah who has currently competed on three seasons of American Ninja Warrior.
American Ninja Warrior 15[]
Violet first competed as a 15-year old rookie in the second round of the first qualifying episode. She had a strong run, making to the fifth obstacle, Ring the Bells, before falling. She placed 3rd among the women, advancing her to the semifinals.
She later competed in the first semifinals episode, where she raced Maggie Owen. Their race was digested, but they both failed on Slingshot, and since Violet made it to the obstacle slower than Maggie, she lost the race and was eliminated as a result.
American Ninja Warrior 16[]
Violet returned for her second season in the third qualifiers. Her run was cut, but this time around she failed on the third obstacle, the Spin Bridge. She placed 4th overall among the women, and had to compete in the runoff races, going against Rysann Clark. Violet was behind for most of the race before catching up on Sideways. Then Rysann failed on said obstacle while Violet cleared the course, once again advancing her to the semifinals.
She returned in the first round of semifinals, going against Emily Keener. Violet was behind for most of the race, but managed to take the lead on Sideways. Both of them went out on the Spin Hopper, and since Violet got there faster, she won the race and advanced to the national finals for the first time.
On Stage One, Violet made it through the first three obstacles, but failed on the Jumping Spider, ending her sophomore season. This was her best season to date.
American Ninja Warrior 17[]
Violet returned for her third season in the second qualifying episode. Her run was digested, but she was able to clear the fifth obstacle (this time being Ferris Wheel) for the first time before falling all three of her attempts on the Warped Wall. She still advanced to the semifinals in 15th place.
Violet later competed in the second semifinals episode. Her run there was also digested, but she ended up falling on the third obstacle Log Runner, thus not advancing to the national finals this time around.
Trivia[]
- Violet is one of twelve ninjas who won the runoff races to also advance to the Las Vegas national finals.
