We asked downhill athlete Adrien Paynel the questions you were wondering about.
\n<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Could you briefly introduce yourself to us? Where were you born and what are you doing as a profession?<\/strong>
\n<\/span>Adrien: <\/strong>Hi, my name is Adrien Paynel, most people call me Frenchy. I grew up in San Diego California, currently living in Barcelona. Going to focus on skating and the opportunities it may bring me this year. After that, I will go back and finish school in California.<\/p>\n

What influenced you to start longboard sport?
\n<\/strong>Adrien: <\/strong>When I was a kid, I loved going to the beach. My friends (the few that I had) and I started skating around when the waves were bad. We would slide around on smooth concrete and leather gloves. I then tried my luck bombing my local hill (the perfect spot for learning) but didn't have the best of luck\u2026 crashed hard, but I fell in love with the adrenaline rush. The second I could try again, I did so, and the rest is history.<\/p>\n

What are your favorite longboard spots to skate?<\/strong>
\nAdrien: <\/strong>This is a very hard question. I'll give you my top ten (not in order, and I'm definitely forgetting some)<\/p>\n

Gib<\/p>\n

Braffs<\/p>\n

Sonora<\/p>\n

SMR<\/p>\n

Deer Creek<\/p>\n

Vulcan<\/p>\n

Izoard and Bonnet<\/p>\n

New shoutout for Bacon and Tennis<\/p>\n

Las Flores and all the rest I haven't had the pleasure to discover<\/p>\n

What advice do you have for newcomers to longboarding?<\/strong>
\nAdrien: <\/strong>Don't get intimidated by the videos. There is a lack of beginner level videos out there and I know it can be a bit daunting. Keep pushing, keep falling, ride safe, and support everyone around you.<\/p>\n

What is your favorite Longboard move?<\/strong>
\nAdrien: <\/strong>Passing my friends :) and standup toesides (still have quite a bit of trouble with them)<\/p>\n

What other sports do you do besides longboarding?<\/strong>
\nAdrien: <\/strong>I like a general workout (encouraged by getting better at skating) I love surfing although I don't have the opportunity to do so much. Slacklining, biking, hiking, and being outdoors.<\/p>\n

What is the biggest longboard project that you have ever dreamed of?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Adrien: <\/strong>A well-rounded, supportive and supported, racing series that gives the opportunity to everyone to race well and get into this amazing sport.<\/p>\n

To sum it up, what would you like to say to Turk Longboard members about Longboarding?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Adrien: <\/strong>Thank you for not speaking my mind. Thank you so many people for bringing longboards. Stay stoked, keep the love alive, and of course, go skate<\/p>\n

All the Best,<\/p>\n
