Riding since | I started BMX in 2019
What got you into BMX | My dad motivated us my sisters and myself to ride BMX. First I skated for about a year then I joined my twin sister Louise to a BMX FLATLAND competition, l’Astrolabe in Condé-sur-Noireau (Normandie), Louise was already riding since one year, I found the sport incredible and the riders too. So I just wanted to do the same thing as my sister, I stopped skating and I only focused on bike riding.
What made you stick to it | To practice a trick like crazy for hours or days to get the satisfaction to finally do it. I also love the unlimited creativity of the tricks and style, every rider can decide which style and tricks he wants and it’s the same thing for me. But the most beautiful thing for me is the people we meet and the trips that BMX is offering to us, on every trip no matter if it’s in France or other countries I always meet incredibly gifted and wonderful riders.
What will make you stick to it | BMX is the most beautiful thing that happened in my life so for sure I want to keep on riding, even more if possible. I would like to keep on travelling, meeting people and reach my objectives.
What should we know about your hometown and your local riding spot(s) | I was riding at home since my beginnings in Fougères on our own spot that my dad made build for us. Today we have moved so we have found another spot with an OSB floor near our house.
Riding alone or within a local scene | When I started BMX my dad would take us to practice at the BMX club (Les Narvalos) in Condé-sur-Noireau on weekends. I would watch internet BMX tutorials with my sister to learn a trick. I ride by myself and with my sisters Clara and Louise.
