Back to trainings...

All looks like super slow since the adidas sickline event...
No water in our rivers, not many slalom races, well it's a little the best period to do something else than kayaking!!

Last weekend, I was in Saint Pierre de Boeuf for 2 slalom races.
400 paddlers were present pour these 2 races...
Always good to come on theses slalom races and was good to paddle a bit in slalom boat... I nearly forgot how well slalom boat goes fast!! ;-)

At home, no water in the course and not really keen to paddle on flat water every days..
Well, lot of mountain biking sessions are planed before training hard with my kayak when the rains will come!!

Gautier, my young brother


Val kicked this gap


Gautier kicked it also!!

This weekend Gautier and I were in Millau for the Catalunya freestyle kayak championship.
Yes that's true, our Spanish buddies come in France to organize their races!!
Little shitty hole, but a great opportunity to paddle with friends and have great times!!

Oops I forgot something...
I met the doctor for my hand last week, I'll finally keep the titanium plate in my left hand on the second metacarpus for life.
So, I don't need an other operation, a second rehabilitation and... no time out!!
All good... What a super I'm right now with titanium hand!! ;-)
