Une belle rencontre : Valérie Gisclard, présidente de Sed66

J’ai a chance de voyager souvent et de rencontrer beaucoup de monde au cours de chacun de mes déplacements.

Lors de mon dernier voyage, j’ai été présenté, par l’intermédiaire d’Eric Dupayage, à Valérie Gisclard : présidente de l’association Sed66, l’association des malades du syndromes d’Ehlers-Darlos.

Valérie est souriante et enthousiaste, ce fut une belle rencontre et une bonne leçon de vie, si vous êtes comme moi et que vous ne connaissez pas cette maladie génétique orpheline je vous invite à visiter le site du Sed66

Vous y découvrirez cette maladie, les symptomes, les témoignages, les projets et actions de l’association etc …

Nautic Paris SUP Crossing 2011

Awesome race in the middle of Paris ; 10km on the Seine river in the heart of the Capital of France !
I’ve fallen at the start but managed to make my way up and I took the lead after about 25mn and won the race for the 2nd consecutive year, Gaetan Sene came 2nd and spanish Belar Diaz came 3rd ; you can check the replay at Mygeolive.com

In the afternoon sprint race on foam boards in the swimming pool of the Nautic, the kids were on fire, swimming pool and foam boards aren’t my best speciality but I have tried my best and I’ve also won this part of the event, congrats to Arthur Arutkin, 14yo who came second !

All in all a great, fun event !

BIC Sport !

I am very proud to announce my new partnership with Bic Sport, they’ve been involved in SUP since the beginning and for 2012 they have a cool range of boards, if you have not seen it yet you might want to check their website : www.bicsup.com

Sunny sunday !

Sunny sunday, calm wind and fun waves, all good for a SUP surfing session !

I’m leaving Fuerteventura on Tuesday to France for the Paris SUP Crossing Race, windguru says it is going to be cold, rainny and windy… I still have tomorrow to enjoy sunshine and blue warm water !

STOP !

The wind is blowing… Everyday… strong onshore wind… Not fun for SUP Surfing… I can’t remember the wind blowing so many days in a row at this time of the year since I’m in Fuerteventura…
I do my workouts and paddle my SUP Raceboard as usual, but I miss a nice, glassy SUP surfing session… It’s time for the wind to STOP !

Here’s a short clip of yesterday’s session, occasionally a wave was showing up with a good shape.
