Finally back in the game!! It was lovely to be back in the comp and enjoy that little weird feeling in the stomach before every heat… I went with some friends driving all the way up to the north of France at the spot of Wimereux where the french championship was held, just opposite of England.

We got there and it was raining, what esle?! But I have to say we then had great conditions, it was even sunny and the water was not so cold. We had only 2 or 3 days of wind but way enough to complete the single elimination. After doing a couple of heats I managed to climb until the final against Seb Garat who has been french champ for a while now. I was not expecting too much from the comp as it was just a come back for me after 2 years not competing, but I was happy to be in the final with Seb. There was a little crowd on the beach with a nice sunset, some friends cheering to motivate and we tried our best, well powered with our 9m starting with some oldschool board offs, front sent pass, big flat 3s and all the mobes possible.

I of course did not have my best heat in the final, as usual, who knows why… I think Seb neither, he was maybe a bit nervous but he was riding quite consistent during the whole day. It was sick anyway, and I came second, quite happy with that! even if it could be better. haha!! always could be better!

Big up to my teammate Thomas Paris who came first at the junior comp, he’s junior French champ, so cute!! haha.

Then we had some days off with no wind, we went to visit a nice town in Belgium called Brugges where we ate some insane chocolates.

Now I’m back home in Nice and will start studying again tomorrow… wind forecast is looking great for the week at least.  And I’m soon leaving to Japannn!! Always wanted to do so, never been in the eastern part of the world so far so it will be great to visit Tokyo and ride with the people there!! just for a weekend!

ciao.
