YOUR LIFE IS FULL OF TRAVELLING. DO YOU STILL ENJOY IT OR WOULD YOU SOMETIMES PREFER STAYING HOME?
To be honest, traveling is my way of life and even if I love my house I can’t stay long there. Traveling makes you realize how beautiful the world is and how lucky you are sometimes to live where you are. Without travels I wouldn’t enjoy my sport as much as I do !!!

AND HOW LONG DO YOU NEED TO RECOVER FROM A JETLAG?
Depends, ...sometimes 3 or 4 days but there is always some good technique to kill the jet lag haha.

ANY RECOMMENDATION ON HOW TO NOT GET BORED ON LONG OVERSEA FLIGHTS?
I m hyper so I freak out in a plane but if I m alone I simply start by watching every single movies, then listen to music, play bmx or MX games and try to stay cool hahaha but no alcohol in the plane, makes me crazy ☺

TELL US A LITTLE ANECDOTE THAT HAPPENED DURING ONE OF YOUR TRIPS. ANYTHING, BE IT FUNNY, SPECIAL, WEIRD. WHATEVER COMES IN YOUR MIND?
heu the craziest one was back in the days when we went to a show, we were lots of riders and we got drunk before the plane. One of us happened to have kind of a coma and the plane had to land in another airport. Result: 20k costs haha!
All my trips are so good and I really take the time to enjoy it so it ll take too long to list them all. But come to me and we ll remind together some nice stories!!!

WHY DID YOU CHOOSE RIDING WITH TSG HELMETS? WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT THE HELMETS?
TSG is simply the safest brand for me. In addition of that, the design is great and you feel so good in any of the products. I think the best for me is how the TSG crew listen to us and they are always ready to make each product the best possible.
I can t see myself riding something else, and before being sponsored by them I already used to ride their helmets, which is a good sign for a rider!!!

HAVE YOU EVER BEEN IN A SITUATION WHERE YOUR HELMET SAVED YOUR BRAIN FROM SEVERE DAMAGED? IF YES, WHAT HAPPENED?
ho yes !!! once i crashed really hard on the back side of my head and i knock out . without that helmet i ll have dye for sure . it was a superlight helmet and the foam did the work perfect and saved me . thank s for that !!!

HOW ABOUT OTHER PROTECTION GEAR? DO YOU WEAR ANYTHING ELSE BUT A HELMET?
I cant ride without knee pads, gloves and shin guards; simply impossible. I have now my own line at TSG with gloves and knee pads and I don’t even feel them when I ride. It makes me feel safe but not locked into something not appropriated. Hey Kids, wear protection! We have only one body, one head and one life!!!

WHAT DO YOU DO ON A DAY OFF BIKE?
I work on my magazine or my brand or my event. I m quite busy, really busy but riding is for sure the best anti-stress after a day of work. And if I have time I love riding moto, so I go for it ☺

DO YOU HAVE ANY OTHER PASSION THAT YOU FOLLOW BESIDES BMX? WHAT IS IT, HOW DID YOU PICK IT UP AND WHAT DO YOU LIKE ABOUT IT?
I do FMX and MTB, play guitar ,surf. Lots of things that I try to do as much as I can even if bmx takes lots of time in my schedule.
I need those things to remind me that fun is the most important and of course to see that my life is bmx . If you just do your sport then you freak out so its always good to do something on the side to appreciate even more the passion. Anyway all those extra sports are about flying and taking adrenaline!!!

OCCUPATION IF YOU WERE NOT A PROFESSIONAL BIKER?
What a question !! I ll do bmx for sure haha
No I might work in action sport or something around cause this world is just so sick!!!
Or I might sell flowers, haha.
