General
MOVE TO THE UNITED STATES
Having visited California, United States of America, regularly since 2011, in March 2021 he moved to live in Encinitas to further his professional career. "I live with my best friend, Vincent Matheron, in Encinitas. We are immersed in the skateboard culture here every day. It is ideal for progress. Until now, I was not ready to leave my family and my friends. I want to have a great career and I know it requires a move [to the United States of America]. You have to go to known and legendary spots, do new tricks, show that you are as capable as the Americans." (lyonplus.com, 26 Mar 2021; laskateboarderie.com, 25 Mar 2021)
