BIO
I was born in 1991, I started motocross racing at the age of 9 with my father.
I did 11 years of MX training, 2 years in championships in Lorraine on a 250 RMZ. I was constantly watching FMX videos and I always wanted to try.
In 2012, I jumped my first ramp, and it was then obvious to me, I wanted to become an FMX rider!
I also practice BMX for pleasure and fun with my friends and I get to have my own private spot to train.
