Behind the scene
What began as a private prototype has generated so much positive feedback and interest that the question came:
Should it become available for more people?
Meet the passionate team turning this prototype into a groundbreaking project for the skateboard community.
Alexis – The creator
Coming from Super-Besse in France, Alexis is the founder and inventor of the concept.
Growing up in the mountains of France, I’ve been passionate about gliding sports since childhood. This love for adventure led me to become both an engineer and a ski instructor, blending technical skills with my dedication to sports.
My passion for creation extends beyond the slopes. I thrive on imagining, designing, and building interactive experiences.
This project embodies what I cherish most: the thrill of sports and riding, the excitement of travel and exploration, and the joy of connecting with people.
Martin – The spark & video magician
From Lyon, Martin is the pro-rider of this project.
He’s also behind the camera, turning the concept into a polished product. More than just filming, Martin took care of the entire production of the video.
I’ve always been passionate about urban sports, and I remember clearly the first time I tried out Alexis’ prototype… it was quite a magical moment, because it was a sensation I’d never experienced before.
That feeling of not needing to push continuously to simply maintain my speed, the impression of being on a controlled slight downhill, everywhere I go… it’s just amazing.
When you add to that Alexis’s kindness and passion, helping him with his project was a no-brainer!
Jules – The handy illustrator
Hard to pin on a map (some would Lyon, Paris, Nantes,) Jules is the second pro-rider of the project.
Originally from Toulouse, I’ve traveled across France, driven by my passion for riding and creativity. My creative journey has encompassed graphic design, illustration, motion design, and filmmaking, including work with Canal Brand Factory.
Riding has been a constant companion throughout my travels. I’ve had the privilege of riding with the Wise Scootering team, traveling across Europe, filming parts, and meeting fellow riders. This lifestyle has fueled my creativity, allowing me to thrive as an illustrator and motion designer.
Jules transformed the deck from a plain piece of wood into a stunning creation, capturing the project’s essence and adding a unique touch. There’s even a hidden story within it that some of you will eventually discover.
