“Later, I discovered and appreciated the spirit of perseverance that skateboarding brings with it.”

What about skateboarding inspires you? When I first started skating it was all about freedom.. In the 90s in France it was fashionable to skate, and I let myself be fooled by that. Later, I discovered and appreciated the spirit of perseverance that skateboarding brings with it. It can take you up to a year to learn one trick. I like the simplicity of skateboarding: a wooden board with wheels, and the city becoming a playground.
