Questions for Aurélien
Do you describe yourself as a "try-it-all" board sports enthusiast?
Yes, indeed. Whether it's kitesurfing or electric surfing, as long as you can ride it, I'm interested! Combining my passion with new things like electric skateboarding is a no-brainer for me.
Did board sports help you in the Koh-Lanta adventure?
Practising a board sport undeniably improves balance, a major asset for certain challenges. Being a good swimmer is also essential. Yes, board sports gave me an advantage. I even discovered that Denis Brogniart is a big kitesurfing fan; we've ridden the same spots in Mauritius!
More of a longboard by the sea or all-terrain rider?
The riding sensation, the carving you get with all-terrain, that's really what I love. Even if I'm never against a family ride on cycle paths.
What board sports activities have you practised?
Skiing and snowboarding since childhood, kitesurfing, wakeboarding, OneWheel, Monoski... I'm also an ambassador in France for RADINN, which sells the most powerful electric Jetsurf on the market. I'm a versatile rider: I'm not excellent anywhere, but average everywhere!
Why did you choose Evo-Spirit?
I know that in France we are capable of great innovations. It was important for me to contact a French company that shares my values. They're board sports enthusiasts who seek to offer the purest sensations to their users.
What sensations do you expect from the Switcher HP?
I think hybrid models, at home on both all-terrain and asphalt, represent the future of the sport. I love the freedom of carving; I hope to find that with the Switcher HP.
