ABOUT
For Joël, paragliding is like a lesson for life: being aware of one’s own strengths and weaknesses. Playing with the weather and the mountains – a game without end, whose possibilities are unpredictable. He loves observing the evolution, whether in the equipment or in the practices. Every innovation is like a fresh wind that fills him. Where is the journey heading? What will happen? Not knowing – for Joël, that means freedom.
INTERVIEW
DO YOU REMEMBER YOUR FIRST FLIGHT? HOW WAS IT?
How could I forget! That magical moment between earth and sky, between enthusiasm and adrenaline. A true leap into the unknown. It is inevitably the moment when my life took on its full meaning.
WHat special MOMENTs DO YOU FLY for?
Those high-altitude take-offs with friends, at daybreak at 4000m or at 2000m, no matter… Feet in the snow, after a beautiful ascent, I unfold my little piece of fabric, so fragile,.. And then just a few steps are enough for the sky to be yours. And if you can link several in one day? Even better! Thanks to the pioneers.
YOUR THREE TOP FLYING AREAS?
The ocean and the fine sand of the Dune du Pila
The Valais valley floors with friends ;)
Without forgetting my favorite garden « Le Grand Chavalard »
WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON A DAY THAT IS NOT FLYABLE?
I run to forget =) No, more seriously, there’s still work to do at home! But let’s not forget to implore the god of the weather window ;-)
MOST IMPORTANT PARAGLIDING SUCCESSES?
The first elevation gains of my son in hike&fly.
WHY DO YOU FLY FOR ADVANCE?
Sit down in one of their harnesses,… and feel this freedom that awaits you! I love their philosophy, their support and their quality, you can feel it in their products.
WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE FOOD?
Home-made burgers
WHAT IS YOUR APPROACH TO LIFE?
Life is only worth living with emotions.
