Born 19 september 1972 in Grenoble
He is currently an army sport instructor at the military academy in Fontainebleau and climbing instructor.
Member of the Raid team : Quechua les Arcs, who took part in the Raid World Cup "X Adventure Raid Series"
Why the Adventure Raid ?
The multisport raid suits him because Rudy enjoys the variety of different sports required in this event. He regularly trains for alpine ski-ing, XC ski-ing, football, tennis, MTB, climbing, running, triathlon, orienteering, kayak and many other sports. The Raid takes place in a natural environment, surrounded by wild hostile landscape. He enjoys this experience as he helps him to forget the mental and physical demands of raid competitions.
